  • do u have a limiter on the master chanel?

  • Your track sounds awesome m8. How does it sound so present and fresh and loud already? I cant get a decent volume unless everything is peaking throught my monitor.

  • @ChewySatisfaction the questino you ask is to do with mixing and a proper mastering engineer will not master a track if its not mixed properly. mastering is the application of shine and polish imo-

    where as the mixing is akin to shaping and sizing and fitting everything together. forget mastering, learn to mix it better and the mastering becomes easy. the biggest advantage from a mastering engineer is a perspective from fresh and experienced pair of ears.

  • hey toney!

    when you say "bounce each track individual" do you mean to do the EQ, Dynamics and Limiter thing on each individual channel?

    And im also interested in what electric farmer said :) most people tell you, to not boost too much!

  • @DjinSten when I say to bounce each individual track I mean each instrument and also you need to disable all the effects in the master channel the effects are only for reference for the dude who is going to master your track you have to send him a folder expressing Reference, and another one with all the individual tracks with the effects in the master channel.

  • @tony. Cool video about mastering dude! Well, I've a question about the indivual tracks and the master track. When you start the project with all the individual tracks, you turn down the individual tracks when the master turns into red or do you also turn the master sometimes down?

  • @aminoacids13 I have a pre mastering part 2 going on which I explain how to keep things under -3DB but yeah its best that you could keep the levels under peak, and without killing the sound by the overtake of other sounds.

  • I have always been told to try not to boost too much with EQ but you seem to boost a LOT! Can you get away with boosting that much in the master channel?

  • @ElectricFarmerCh this is for reference and as if you could see I do not go pass the -6DB in the limiter, and I do not peak out on my individual track instances. Also the reason why I express the title Pre mastering is for the Master engineer needs a reference only. You need to bounce each individual track with no effects in the master channel you need to turn off all the effects that are in the master channel. This video is so the Master Engineer would want a reference of what your looking for.

  • @ElectricFarmerCh If you need to boost by more than 2 or 3db on the master channel then you should remix.

  • @rdev68 I found a trick that I did not regard in this video but it has to do with what your saying, and plus a much quicker and faster way just by adding maybe an EQ and a Limiter.

  • @rdev68 its on the master channel and it has to dow with the monitor of the DB which it does not show unless you extend the feature so it could be shown on all channels and Master channel.

  • man how did you create that pad/atmospheric thingy? it sounds sooooo good!

    kudos on the teaching!

  • @ochjoenge very easy there is a tutorial I made called how to create dub techno chords look it up on my video list. its the same technique but you just extend the realease and sustain on the envelope filter.

  • thanks for the tips.

  • @sesos89 thanks to everyone but I have to thanks the guy I put in the description for teaching me this technique which took me a while to figure out until I bump into his channel in Vimeo.

  • Extremely helpfull, I was searching and hoped to find a video like this.

    Thank you so much :)

  • @AerioNauts your welcome and also lets give credit to the guy who I put in the description info he was the one who taught me that trick.

  • Nice atmosphere there man, I'd love to hear it in full, do you have the track uploaded somewhere?

    As far as the content, I'd recommend not trying to put effects on the master channel and keep the master fader at 0.0dB

    Any professional mastering studio should have waaay better effects suited for mastering the master channel.

    Also, send all of your files as lossless as possible (so meaning 44.1/16 or up!)

  • @AppA Yeah your right on that, at end of the video I explain that some mastering studio want an entire song reference with the sound your want more express, but yes always send the individual sound instances of your track and all at 44,000 16 bit

    With no encoding like wav or aiff but AppA thanks for the comments

  • @AppA Glad you put a mention on that point i try to look at the master channel doesn't peak off red, and then I try to bump it up, but for the record I sent the raw instances of each instruments to the mastering studio.
