I'm hoping this is the right place to get a recommendation for audio restoration and mastering software. These are all mono recordings so don't need any mixing. I'm more concerned with the mastering than I am about the restoration. I'm working on some 1930's to 1940's recordings from open reel, mainly from radio broadcasts.

whats the difference? because i feel like you can properly mix a song enough to where you can bounce it down from pro tools and it sounds great!

Hey guys,

I decided to get 2 headphones, 1 for editing/composing and another for mixing and mastering.

Hey guys
I'm redoing my home mastering setup and was pondering if a mini mac would be a clever in a mastering setup. And if there is anyone out there using a mini mac for that kind of work? I'm kind of new to the mac world so excuse my silly questions

Technically it's 3 questions regarding CD Architect 5.2 which I'm using:

1 - Track vs. Index

I'm recording a live venue every week using a Fostex LR16 and bring the multitrack files home to mix using Audacity. I know it's a free program, but I'm hesitant to spend money until I get past a certain learning curve. I can get a decent mix, but when I export the mix as an MP3, it sounds funny. Sounds like "waves"...

I just started using Ozone and I like the sounds I'm getting from it. I have one question regarding something I've noticed after mastering a song with it, however.

Hello All,
At final stages of mixing projects to send to mastering housing, questions?
1. I look at my Eq curve of the final mix on a RTA realtime analyzer and try to get it as flat as possible. (right now they are pretty close ) Is this a good thing?
2. I bounce my final mixes with NO comp or master EQ on the master buses.
