If somebody needs a great sounding Mastering Software EQ, try this Angeltone.

Hi,

I've been wondering how common a practise is it to subtely change the pitch/speed of a track when mastering it - I'm talking about mastering to tape here, so let's say + or minus 1% to 4% speed... or more? Is this ever done?

Any ideas would be welcome,

Thanks -

A very strange and disturbing thing happened to a recent project I mastered and I wanted to post it to know if anyone has seen this sort of thing before and how it could happen. I certainly don't want this to happen again.

Please let me know what you think. Thanks!

I just got this cuz it cam with a CD-RW I bought and to my surprise it comes with a wave editor. I poked around and saw some familiar features.

Has anyone tried this program? Is it capable of some decent mastering work?

Thanks!
