  • Does anyone have a 'first principles' guide to mastering their mixes? Mine tend to come out nastily over-compressed with the occasional bit of distortion. Example of what I'm talking about:

    I think it's because I'm guessing at what combination of compression, limiting and normalisation to apply and to what degree. I use audacity but I guess there are tools that are more designed for this task?

  • Mixes were all coming out very quiet. Found I couldn't normalise them effectively without compressing/limiting them pretty hard first.

    Also dance music. Dynamics are optional amirite
