Mastering Why is this such a nightmare? Even when you have the track sounding loud as fuck on the software whenever i bounce the project out of logic and burn to cd it seems to go really flat? Does anyone know anyone locally who can master tracks for a decent price?
Theres a real knack to it mate so outside help is definetley the best way to go and its well worth the money. I dont know of any up here i must admit as the one i use for Infra is based in yorkshire but Luke would be a good bet to ask? He might even do it for you for a bit of £
Cheers Mick, you are bang on about there being a knack to it. Ive even followed some tutorials on doing it for yourself though it hasnt made any difference at all so its definitely worth getting someone else to do it who is more skilled at it. Ill give Luke a shout and see if its something he could help out with
i found this http://www.diplo.co.uk/music/mastering.php very helpful mate, it explains it as simply as possible
Anytime man. I can sort you out my contact aswell if you need it but they are reasonable expensive. Like i say i wouldnt even bother trying to do it yourself mate its a pain more than anything. Aslong as you do a nice mix down in terms of your levels a professional company will bring the track right up to scratch.
