Wow, thanks for the diss.

Back in the day they used to tell me you would never be able to make music on a computer. I had to go pay some guy with a 100 thousand dollar hybrid digital/analog console and 100 faders, and his room of toys. Everyone thought it was preposterous that a computer could replace their gear and studios that cost more than a house, and took as much room as one in real-estate space. No way any of this could ever be done on a laptop and a few boxes.

SUPRISE!

Obviously, someone trained to master is going to be better than someone who isn’t. If you have the resources, a professional will save you time and gain you some credibility. But supporting the established way because of the mysterious wizard hierarchy of mystical mixing alchemists because, hey, all these people have vested interests in preserving their jobs, so you can’t do it yourself, so just don’t. F****ing bullshit.

DO IT YOURSELF.

There’s no shame in trying. So what if you fail?

But yeah, now I remember why I hate music communities, egos and assholes answering questions with indignant rants as if what they do is pandora’s box, all wanting to get paid.

You said it. I love ya.

Don’t raise mixer levels when mastering. Drop everything else down. This will maintain dynamics, generally. Maximizer shouldn’t have outrageous settings on it.
