Everything you need to know before you upload your first track.
Invectus is RavenBlack Audio’s mastering and conformance studio — a handcrafted process built for producers, composers, and publishers who need top tier, sync-ready masters fast. It takes your rough mix through a real master chain, perfected over years, and verifies every file against spec before it’s delivered.
No. Every master runs through a 100% real mastering chain that has been crafted and used on actual AAA placements.
Speed and AI are not the same thing. Every master is bounced offline on a real machine, running the same chain used on real placements — and offline rendering is simply faster than playing a track back in real time. Nothing in the processing is shortened or simulated. Only the waiting is.
Upload your pre-master through an encrypted gateway and it is picked up to flow through the mastering chain. The process and finished master is downloadable and able to be listened to immediately through the web portal. An email is also sent to let you know when your track is ready.
Yes. Drop a track through the free preview portal — no signup required. A watermarked preview is available in under two minutes, so you can hear exactly what the mastering chain does to your track before committing to a plan.
Usually about a minute. Stem ZIPs take a little longer, depending on size.
Upload WAV, AIF, MP3, M4A or FLAC, up to 1.5 GB per file. Stems go in as one ZIP. The free preview on the homepage takes WAV, AIF or MP3.
Every finished master is delivered as both a 24-bit WAV and a 24-bit AIF, at 48 kHz. You pick which one to download in the portal — and you can take both, at no extra cost and with nothing to decide up front. Masters are produced at 48 kHz whatever your source rate, so a 44.1 kHz upload comes back at 48 kHz. Stems submitted as a zip come back as a single archive.
Producer is currently available as a Founding Membership for $99/month (two months free on annual billing) and includes unlimited 24/7 on-demand mastering.
Yes. You can cancel your subscription at any time from your account dashboard, and cancellation stops future billing immediately. Canceling does not automatically refund the current billing period.

No. RavenBlack Audio is a mastering and audio processing service — there is no guarantee for sync placements, licensing deals, or any other outcome. Decisions about placement and licensing are made by third parties (music supervisors, publishers, sync agencies).
Yes — the service is designed for producers, composers and publishers submitting to sync licensing and trailer opportunities.
Yes. You keep 100% ownership and copyright of both your original file and the finished master. The license to process it is temporary and non-exclusive — no distribution rights, no sublicensing, nothing that affects exclusivity with a library, agent, publisher or supervisor. Mastering is a service performed on your file, in the same way a mastering engineer would, and it creates no claim over the track. You choose how long masters are kept — for as long as you’re a member (and 30 days after it ends), or deleted automatically within 48 hours — and any individual track can be deleted at any time.
Unlimited resubmissions are included with every subscription so you can keep refining the mix until it's right. Alternate sonic characters are also available to use, such as "Ultra Transparent".
Submit a ticket on the "Support" tab or reach out directly to info@ravenblackaudio.com at any time.
