RGO, I wanted to let everybody know that my company and I have become an Official Apple Approved Mastered For ITunes provider. This is a big deal for me. The approval does not speak to the actual output quality or gear used, more so that a proper protocol is taken to ensure the material is prepared correctly for the MFiT encoder. I must say It is quite an honor to have my company added to that fine list of accredited mastering houses π€ This is also important b/c most of my clients use third-party aggregators who only except 16 bit 44.1 wave files. This is bad because these 16 bit files have been dither down from the original master file, which the aggregators then make an MP3 from. The only way to supply 3rd party aggregators 24 bit files is to be an official Apple Approved MFIT provider... Then the MP3 can be taken from the original HQ non dithered wav file.. Also, just wrapped my first major Online mastering release for an Artist called B.U.G. Da Genius due out August 17th, 2017 everywhere π€ β
Hope all is well with everyone here at RGO and your families. Don't forget to tell the ppl you care about how much you love them before its too late... my dad had a major heart attack yesterday morning. He barely made it into surgery in time ( 120 min to solve heart attack we were at 114 min ) had 7 more minutes passed the Dr told me he would not have lived. They performed a bypass and put stints, so the dr said the was a solution which made me feel relieved some. http://instagram.com/p/BWgcE_PH7KD

Thank you, really means a lot guys! Most work I do/ have done, I don't get credited for. To have a major project due out soon where I receive credit for my work is gratifying and makes me want to grind even harder. Not to mention I am getting my music aside from my Mastering/ mixing work into other states via working with BUG! π€
I am very thankful for the support and condolences for my dad π It's hard cuz we have a rough past but that's my Dad and I love him and no matter what differences there are I will be there for him... π―
Hope to inspire someone with my thread because when others post their good comings and successes I enjoy it and it lets me know it is possible!

Thank you so much for the kind wishes regarding the Apple Approval and my father's heart attack everybody.. My dad is doing better, He had what is called a widow maker heart attack. He got released from the hospital today π€ π Thanks to you all's support, this has not been as difficult as I imagined, however the hard part is now here. I am worried because he has so many changes to make in his life if he wants to live and I am scared and still feel helpless. ππ
Instead of living in fear for him, I have decided to use this as new motivation to be as successful as I can while he is here. I want to show my dad he raised a good kid. Like I said we have had lots of issues in our relationship and my dad had never supported my music or career choice until very recently. Actually, it wasn't until this past Christmas 2016, when I made him a copy of a cd of my music my mom wanted for her present that he finally realized I am talented and work really hard ( even though he knew I graduated AIMM and was invited ( huge thing for me ) but he didn't come to see me graduate π€¦ββοΈ, I'm his only son, and I am a junior )
I hope everyone finds inspiration and remains motivated when your back is against the wall π― π Thanks again RGO, this is a great place π€

Ha, you think that you have pressures by being a measly junior? Try being a third like me, it's like having a crowd nervously looking over your shoulder with their accompanying angels and devils in constant cacophanous conversation calling constantly in your ears!
I'm glad your father is over the hump and imagine him stronger in the future fore his positive lifestyle change. The sun is a'rising on a beautiful fall morning.

I could not imagine being a third, especially if the second was a brother... Thanks so much for the kind wishes, yeah this is a new beginning. My dad has to completely cut salt out of his diet on top of many other common things he took for granted and were habits two weeks ago... I am nervous but also feeling a little better as far as the overall situation ππ€ Thanks
