Good evening everyone!
I have been tweaking this master for quite some time now so I though a dedicated post on the Mastering forum was mandatory (because mixing is not mastering). I will post both the mix and my master if there is sufficient interest, because that is the only fair option for a critique of sorts. I am especially interested in the low-end portion of the mix and master (obviously). The genre is metal in general and I must state that I checked on Focals SM9s and found my "lack of bass disturbing"..but only for a db or two. I tried to remedy this in the master with low-end saturation through a J37 tape and it does "feel" better ..does it sound better though? I leave that to some more experienced ears than mine.
Lastly, I mix on Yamaha HS7s.
Any help will be appreciated.
Cheers
John
