Hello all. I am a musician who owns a small home studio and am recording a very interesting project. It's my own project; a conceptual album in a progressive rock style ala Pink Floyd meets Dream Theater. I'm working hard composing, tracking, arranging and later on will be busy mixing.

Can someone answer me this? I need to talk to Bill and yet I can't PM him. What is going on?

tnx,

chris

anyone got any ideas, input, experience, this is a big project for us and we're new to the game, good equipment, just curious about their skills? or should I even be? thank you

I got these 2 units for the mastering. Which do you think is the best way to use both of them.

I make my mix ready in the Pro Tools and I record again the file in one of my interfaces through the Finalizer + L2 (Hardware).

Thanks

Hello Everyone,

Is there any literature or a tutorial that can walk me through typical settings used in mastering? I have a Masterlink and am using it for mixdown in my home studio. Not for release, mind you, but for my own songs. I am familiar with the functions ie eq, comp, normalizing by name but the manual does not go into detail about a typical mastering session.

I was listening to some of my tracks with my home stereo. I noticed when I turned up the volume with my favorite tunes the sound increased slightly. When I turn up the sound with mine it gets louder much faster. Is that have something to do with being professionaly mastered or is that a problem with my own sound levels or compressing?

Greetings,

I am doing a project paper on backmasking and submliminal messages in music, can any one offer insights where back masking originated? i heard that the beatles have started it off with one of their songs stating "die paul" or somthing to that effect, i just came to this site by accident before but never posted. I tred to decipher some tracks like the Led Zepplin "stairway to heaven" stanza.
