Remember, you can add processing but not take it away. This means no compressors, limiters or EQs on the master output when you commit your final mix to disk. To allow maximum flexibility at the mastering stage there should be as little processing as possible taking place on your exported pre-master. Most commonly, though, the term mastering is used to refer to the process of taking an audio mix and preparing it for distribution. For example, if you original project was recorded at 24 bit then this should also be at 24 bit. For best results this should be in the highest bit rate possible. This should be an exported or recorded version of your entire mix-down. Start by adding a stereo track to accommodate your un-mastered track. Although this specific mix of products is used in the workshop, all techniques are generic and can be translated to any genre of music using similar plug-ins and any digital audio workstation software. This tutorial was completed in Logic Pro 8 using a mixture of Logic’s native plug-ins and third party processors from Universal audio. In this tutorial, you'll learn how to master a track quickly and easily. The point of mastering is to polish the mix to its best possible sound, and to make your song/s sound like other professional songs heard on streaming platforms. It is a powerful, easy-to-use online audio mastering tool that can help you improve the sound quality of your audio recordings. However, if your tracks are just for demo purposes, a DJ set or even use on the net, you may want to tackle the job yourself.
Mastering your tracks can be a bit of a minefield and is often seen as the domain of the professional. This tutorial was first published in July 2008. Twice a month we revisit some of our reader favorite posts from throughout the history of Audiotuts+.
