How Much Does AI Mixing and Mastering Cost in 2026? Prices Compared

Quick answer: AI mastering costs from free (BandLab's basic presets) to roughly $35 a month on the most expensive monthly plan we found, and AI mixing from stems typically costs more per month or per song because it does more work. Most services let you preview before paying. We make MixTrackLab, so we list our prices alongside the rest and tell you where another option is cheaper.

Mixing and mastering are not priced the same

A mastering service polishes a finished stereo file. A mixing service balances separate files first. The second is more work, so compare like with like. AI mixing vs AI mastering explains the split.

AI mixing (from stems or a vocal and a beat)

  • MixTrackLab: mix and preview free; export $9.99 per song, Studio Pro $29.99 a month for six songs, or $249.99 a year for unlimited exports.
  • MegaMix AI (its own page, checked October 25, 2026): $5.99 a month, $11.99 for three months, $39.99 a year, with a 7-day trial.
  • RoEx Automix (fast.io roundup, October 22, 2026): $7.99 per download on Starter; Pro $24.99 a month or $149.99 a year.
  • OneMaster (same roundup): $9.90 per song, with bundles that lower the per-song price.
  • Cryo Mix: credit-based monthly plans; the sources we found disagree on price, so check cryo-mix.com.

AI mastering (a finished stereo file)

  • BandLab Mastering: free with four basic presets; membership from $14.99 a month unlocks more.
  • LANDR: $10 per WAV master, or plans from about $13 a month.
  • Masterchannel: plans from $25 a month, or less billed yearly.
  • eMastered: $34 a month, less on yearly plans.

These figures come from a fast.io roundup dated October 22, 2026, and may be out of date by the time you read this. Each company's own page is the final word.

How to pick without overpaying

  • If you release a few songs a year, a per-song price beats a subscription.
  • If you release weekly, a monthly plan wins.
  • Always preview first, and check what the price includes: file format, track length, and whether downloads are limited.
  • Free is fine for a first test; just make sure the free version is not a tiny preview.
