    Most important thing about mastering is, that your mix has to be at least decent in the first place!

      I’d take your comment to another level.. the mix should be as good as possible. That includes balancing dynamics, frequencies, and width as appropriate. As a mastering engineer I’ve had clients ask me to redo their mastered track because it wasn’t loud enough. Truth is, I couldn’t make it louder because the mix didn’t allow me to without ugly distortion/pumping

    Multiband compressor for tonal balance in mastering has been missing in your tutorial.

    • @TraxtasyMedia
      @TraxtasyMedia 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      you should use a MBC further in mixing, because if you got a tonal imbalance on your rendered files, you don't want to go back and analyze for hours where you missed out on it. The mastering is the final step, when you are ready to print your song.

    • @11dime
      @11dime 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@TraxtasyMedia I get you. A plug-in like waves linear multiband compressor should not miss in a master chain. It maintains a frequency balance throughout the performance which to me is a must have for that final pro level sound.

    Loudness comes from mixdowns!!
    if mix is not engaging and clean enough, you could slap on unlimited amount of processors and achieve nothing but exaggerated version of the same shity mix 😂

    • @ancestralvision
      @ancestralvision ปีที่แล้ว +1

      you are right, but i think the reality is a bit different from the ideal state, a lot of mastering engineers receive imperfect mixes and they need tu use their sorcery to make the single .wav premaster sound good, even tho a great mixdown is a path to a great master, there is still something that can be saved during the mastering process

      Having said that ,having full control of the peaks in Mixing is essential for me because while mastering, peaks can get overwhelming real fast.
      Well, it's my personal opinion and I respect how other engineers go about fixing the same issues in their own respective ways 🙏
