I think someone is equating "mastering" with "getting it loud" - The two are (unfortunately) related to some extent, but let's not water it down to just that...Some mastering ive messed around with makes my snare sound like shit. Idk maybe im doin it wrong...
What I'd recommend then is to work the mix as if there were no such thing as mastering. In other words, get the mix *right* so that the mixdown sounds as good as possible and requires only a minimum amount of polish, if any at all.pod4477 said:I would rathe rhave a clear master than a loud one.
