Fadeouts and mastering

[Farview]

I wasn't thinking of a limiter used during mixing, but then again, if it's already on the track, it doesn't matter if the fade is done right after that or at the mastering.
Of course, I apply a mastering limiter after all edits, including fades.

I'm talking about the mastering limiter. If I fade, then the song drops out of the limiter that the ME is using...

I master and render it unfaded. Then fade that and render it. It seems cleaner.
