So, I had some songs mastered for an EP that I will be releasing this winter. No this is the first recording of mine that I have had professionally mastered. The guy mastered it on a pair of Vandersteins, that were amazing sounding. I heard some shit I didnt even know I recorded. What I did notice though, was that a few times in a couple of the songs there was INCREDIBLE low end on some bass tracks and Keybaord track that I had never heard before. So needles to say I was a bit distractd by that as we listened to it and kept making suggestions in order to deal w/ the crazy ammount of low end I was hearing.
The mastering guy assured me that he had everything under control and even gave my a quick simulation via eq to show my what most home and car speakers would pick up. And alas he was right, it sounds really good now.
Anyway, I am now wondeing if I should get a sub to make sure I deal w/ this sort of shit correctly. How many of you guys have subs? Can I guy a cheaper home use one or is a better idea to get one that is made for audio production? I am currently using the Tannoy Reveal passives.
Do tell,
Thanks
