I'm not sure if this is a mastering question or a technical/software question. I've been using either Riffworks/Audacity/ or Ableton Live to mix/render ideas or full recordings. The resulting track from all programs and two computers have been good sounding mixes that have a low over all volume compared to commercial mp3 ... I normally mix my tracks such that the master volume is between -6 and -3 db, since this results in a soft mp3 is there a mastering step I should follow this up with?
