      I made my own Bill and Ted music but I recorded it on a cell phone. I'm having a problem where it sounds best played back on a cell phone but very muddy on anything else. Do you know what would cause that?
      I knew enough to make the recording but the rest of it is currently beyond my know-how.

    7 years ago I injured both my ears from loud mixing with headphones. I stopped producing after that. In late 2019 I saw one of your youtube video mixing etc, so in 2020 i got my equipment back and started producing again. All I am saying you played a big roll to motivated me to come back to music again. Thanks again my friend. Stay strong and bless

      @Splitting Time so I've been having issues with that lately - and it's always when I'm sound designing and I make a frequency that my ears are like BAD SOUND BAD SOUND I can feel them physically recoil. I've been working with a limiter on the master to make sure I'm not going over a certain db level, and that has helped extend my staying power and I haven't had any pain. Also, get yourself some good, musician grade earplugs for extra protection. let hardware/software protect you. I also use monitors as much as I can because it gives the sound waves some space to dilute before it hits your ears.

Studying your videos for the last 2 years has made me not only love my program but learn that it has less to do with the DAW than your own ear and creativity. Always down for your insights and many of your videos i watch over again. Cheers🤠

    Dude thank you so much. I have been mixing, mastering, vocal processing, sound designing, and Producing since 2008 and YOU HAVE TAUGHT ME MORE IN 1 YEAR THAN I LEARNED ON MY OWN IN 12. I felt very proficient with Adobe Audition (when it was known as CEP2.1), Studio One, and FL, and yet you still teach me so much.
    And even when you touch upon topics I'm very familiar with, I still have a blast sitting down, listening with you, and I still pick up some new tricks and tips. Thank you so much for broadcasting your experiences for us, and taking the time to explain things.

    As everyone here as said, great video, obv. After having Ozone 9 for a year, I just started using it instead of individual plugin chains, and lo and behold, you used 3 modules here! I'm mastering a grand piano & violin duet of 16 re-arranged Irish tunes, mostly from O'Carolan. I found that the Maximizer, even with everything but the mode (I like the IRC IV Classic) turned off, gives a bite to it. This worked ok on one of my tunes, but not another. I think I could hear the same on your tune here, which is maybe what you wanted. It was more bite and brighter than the reference track, to my ears. Thanks!

    I think your point about preparing yourself emotionally for the session by listeing to one's favourite music and getting into the mood is a good one. I've doing this helps no end.

    I really like the way you instructed, detailed and specific. I'm 22 years old but I made music when I'm 13. I didn't join any classes or any courses. Even though I tried to learn many videos on TH-cam and other digitals but only when I see your channel, I can do well and find the right direction for my mix, my project. Thanks so much!

    Mastering truly is an art in and of itself, and an underrated one at that.
    There's a reason some of the greatest recording and mixing engineers recommend you send the mix to a mastering studio

    You may not read this but a couple things.. 1. Thanks for the transparency of your mastering process. It really helps. 2. Explaining exactly what to listen for and how to listen (earbuds, car, etc)... awesome. These are vital. 3. (and most importantly) fricken thank you for the biz advice as well! I don't think I've heard the advice of sending 1/2 the master and waiting until you're paid to send the full master. Overall, great video and do more like these! Have a good one!

    Thanks a lot for the tutorial and for giving us the mix to experiment with. I've found that its far much better doing and hearing the difference than just listening to a mastering tutorial, and for that I can't thank you enough.
