(I've also posted this in the Audio Video Film section of the forum. I wasn't sure which would be better. In there or in here, Mastering. Sorry ahead of time for the double post!)

So, I'm finishing up the audio for my friends film which is about to be released on DVD and I have a few questions. If any of you could help it'd be great.

is there any Specific course for mastering that is online...

Hi,

everybody got his own Mastering style...

Mind to share your very own style of Mastering step with us?

Like what is the first step? would you like to use Limiter for last step? How you EQ your final song? and so on...

Cool..

seems like the last week or two posts went bye bye. Chris is looking into it. But it looks like they're gone. so go ahead and repost.

Hi, I'm having a bit of a problem making my masters a bit louder. I know, I hate doing that, but some of my clients are asking me to master their material a bit louder than I'm used to, the thing that I didn't realize is that I don't know how to. Every time I try to compress or limit more my mix it distorts or sound overcompressed, so I'm clueless in this matter, can you help me out?

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.

I've been checking a lot of websites and references and haven't found enough information on the subject. I guess the limiter is normally used under mastering phase. Can anyone explain or direct me to some website? Cheers!

Hi, I'm a producer making a style of music smilar to drum and bass and i was wondering what frequency i should be rolling my basses off.

When i roll of at 50hz i get an increase in headroom which makes a better mix

but

when i roll of at 30Hz my Yamaha msp5's show a noticable difference in the bottom end, it sounds more full.

I thought it might be a good topic to discuss amps.

I know a lot of guys use Bryston, Rotel and McIntosh. But what else is out there? What are the advantages of different brands in comparison to the others? What are studios like Sterling Sound using?

Go into detail on your opinions on power amplifiers, if you would.

I'm so tweaked!

I just won a Manley Vari-Mu on Ebay for a song!

I'm so excited I think I just wet myself a little... ;-)

I got it from a mastering house in LA (not sure which one, but they were also selling a Weiss mastering desk so I'm sure they are legit...)

Just thought I'd share. (y)
