Personal song analysis
Find out what will really help your song
Sometimes a song isn't missing much. But on your own it's hard to tell which change really matters. I listen to your song personally and tell you what to improve first.
This is for you if: you're producing or mixing your song yourself and want an honest outside opinion before mastering or release.
Three packages to choose from
- Standard: written feedback on your song
- Plus (recommended): written feedback plus a personal video of about 10 to 15 minutes, in which I show you important spots directly in the song
- Premium: written feedback and video, plus I listen to your song again after you've reworked it
All three packages apply to one song. Problems in a mix are usually easier to explain by phone or video than in plain text, which is why Plus is my recommendation.
What you get
Not a generic rating, but an understandable assessment that speaks directly to your song.
- My personal assessment of your song's current state
- A to-do list: what matters most comes first
- Concrete pointers on the mix, vocals and overall impact
- On request: comparison with a song of your choice
What I listen for
- Whether the vocals are easy to understand and sit well up front
- The balance between vocals, instruments, bass and drums
- How the sound is spread across high and low frequencies, and the volume
- The spatial sound, and whether the song sounds good on every device
- The song structure, the transitions and the overall impact
How it works
- Book an analysis: You are booking a song analysis for one song.
- Send song: You send your audio file or a download link. Optionally, also a song you're using as a reference.
- Personal review: I listen to your song under good studio conditions.
- Receive your feedback: Your written evaluation will arrive via email within 2 to 5 working days.
Important note: This service is the analysis of one song. I don't edit your audio file myself as part of it. Mixing, editing, vocal correction and mastering can be booked separately if you need them. If instead you are looking for a technical audit with measured values shortly before release (loudness, clipping, stereo image, compatibility), the Release-Ready-Check is the right, independent offer for that. If your song isn't fully produced yet and it's about the structural build-up (chorus timing, tension curve, song length), the Songdoctoring is the right service before that.
Frequently Asked Questions about Song Analysis
Do you also edit my song?
No. The analysis shows you what to do, but I don't touch your file itself. Mixing, editing, vocal correction and mastering are separate services and can be added on if you need them.
How long will it take to get feedback?
Within 2 to 5 working days, by email and in writing.
What exactly am I listening to?
I check how easy the vocals are to understand, the balance between vocals, instruments, bass and drums, the tone and the volume, the spatial sound and how the song sounds on different devices, as well as the song structure and the transitions.
Will I only receive a grade or will I receive concrete steps?
Concrete steps. You get a to-do list, ordered by what moves your song forward the most: the most important thing comes first. No generic rating and no automatic analysis, I listen to it myself.
Can I send a reference song?
Yes. Send me a song you're using as a sonic reference, and I'll compare your song against it.
Is it worth doing this before mixing or mastering?
Yes, that's the usual case. You find out beforehand what the real problem is, and then you invest your money specifically in the step that will make a difference.
Which package should I choose?
Plus is enough for most people. In the video, I show you spots directly in the song, which is often quicker to grasp than plain text. Premium is worth it if you want a second opinion after your revisions, before the song goes out.
