How did you learn your craft?
Did you set out to become a mastering engineer or did you end up where you are through happenstance?
How do you approach a given mastering project and how do you go about deciding what a given mix needs?
A formal music training includes ear training, to hone the skills of a musician to be able to identify intervals, chords, keys/tonalities... this includes methods such as the instructor playing certain intervals on the piano and having the student identify it by listening to it, as well as music dictation which can range from simple single voice 4 bar melody to a full on polyphonic arrangement. Can you think of listening/ear training excercises that an aspiring mastering engineer could do to hone their listening skills?
