haha....not sure if this is the right forum but...i keep seeing posts about mixing/mastering/demo and pro quality. i was planning on just making a cd at home with cooledit then sending some to distributors...like relapse records. is this at least feasable? through a personal website is way to iffy.
now is mastering just a mass producing of the original cd?
and how would i tell if my finnished product needs re-mixing?
meaning i'm a long time disciple of black metal.....which is known for some horrible sounding productions (but still out on the shelf)! dark throne for example.
at another post i said lets not get bound by corporate conventions but is there a minimum that needs to be met concerning accepted sound quality? to be marketable that is? i'm not playing pure old school black metal!
i would love to hear my stuff with radio quality but.....where's the balance and Fun?
