Masterlink Tutorial?

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.

Sound Levels

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?

submliminal messages in music

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.

Mastering for my genre.

I am looking for a Mastering Engineer that can work with the type of music I do. I did a lot of reading on this board and came to the conclusion that I need a professional to do the mastering.

I realize that I have reach the point that I need to let the Pros take it from here.

It's so hard to let something go when you have spend so such time doing everything yourself.
