now watch me get flamed by some crybaby pussy
Well, just for the record, I never flamed anybody. Flaming would be calling someone names, say like, crybaby pussy.
If you'd really feel all that confident in yourself, then follow this link,
http://recpit.prosoundweb.com/viewforum.php?f=9
and post your mix on there, and tell them that you can do just about as good as a pro could do mastering.
Then, when they tell you that you are deceiving yourself, argue with them like you are doing here, and you'll see some real flames.
There are people on this website that have worked hard for a long time at doing this for a living, and some have built a pretty solid reputation around here as to knowing what they're talking about. Someone posts a question with a serious interest about how something works, and they get a serious, very helpful reply by some of the veterans of the board here.
Along comes some newbie, talking like he can do it all by himself, and telling pepole that those with the experience on this board that are giving out advice are using flawed logic. For the new people at this site, that may not know any better, they think "Hmmm, maybe that guy is right, and soandso doesn't know what he's talking about." That really affects how people can effectively learn around here, and it's not fair to those that want good advice on how to get better from people that actually know the facts based on their own experience, instead of hearing arguments made by someone with no experience, except for remixing a song or 2, done with so little real interest of doing it for real that the software used is openly pirated. That shows absolutely no respect for the people that have earned it through their hard work.
I'm not flaming you, I'm just trying to get you to shut your fucking mouth, if you don't have anything real, or positive to add to the discussion. Now, I've been sucked into it and am posting things that aren't positive, either.
The entire issue here is respect. Even with the mastering. You can tweak your mix all you like, it's not the same as mastering. BBS's comment about the doctor is an example that hits the mark perfectly there. All the experiment would find is wether or not the professional could still do his job without his tools. You are saying that you have so little respect for the professional, that you could do almost as good of a job without those tools as he can WITH them.
Complete horseshit.
Hey, I just read a book about how rockets are built. I'm pretty sure that I understand what I'm doing. I'm sure that I could build a rocket, and it should get to space with no problems. Even though I've only got some sheet metal parts, and some wire, and a soldering iron.
Well, I'm sure it's at least ALMOST as good as NASA's.
