Rate my mastering...

Submitted by anonymous on Sun, 06/18/2006 - 14:50

Hi i have doing first steps in mastering and here is a song i've mastered.
Tools used: Waves RComp (as SSL Bus Summing Emulation),
Izotope Ozone: 3 Band Compressor + Harmonic enchancer (Tube emu, 2-nd harmonic dist.).
Sony Oxford Inflator on last Stage and POWr Diter Type 2.

Master2_PT.wav should be considered as primary.

Master3.wav should be considered as a reference (Without Sony Oxford inflator and Diter).

What is it that you are asking for here? I do mastering everyday and I don't post it here for others to hear. What is the point? I down loaded your mastering job and it took 13 minutes (fast cable) and I listened to it. It sounds OK but nothing out of the ordinary. What exactly are you asking for? Do you want everyone to say WOW this is the best mastering I have ever heard? Why would you post this? I am not trying to start a war of words but I would like to know what you were expecting to accomplish with this posting. Do you think that you mastering is better than everyone else's or do you want to be stroked with praise and admiration? I have problems with people posting things and saying RATE MY SONG or RATE MY MASTERING or RATE MY RECORDING. Rate it how against what? Sorry for the rant but I cannot understand what the purpose was of posting this and asking for comments. I guess you will get a few but....?????

I read your other posting where you said you were better than the original poster but what does that mean and how are you deciding that you are somehow better than someone else. Isn't that usually left up to some third party to decide?

Here is what you said Posted Sunday June 18th 2006 on this forum (Dead Link Removed)

i'm sorry but my masters sound better(and i'm only beginner:( )...just posted one in separate thread
Yes dums are a bit behind and a bit destroyed, but you wont hear it much on consumer speekers...
But overrally image is bigger and vox is on top of it.
and it also is more punchier. i have used Janette "Rock my life" as a reference and they get even louder there, but snare was completely smashed, mine is not completely:))) And their vox was amaizing how did the do that?((
Have fun with whatever you are doing and what ever floats your boat.
