For every producer out there mixing their own songs, I highly recommend watching this "Audio Myths Workshop" video: http://t.co/mZNyJMei3p

Often my mastering clients ask why my sampling rate is 44.1 kHz vs 96 or 192. Main reason: intermodulation distortion http://t.co/UzOCG9X3AH
2013-11-12 23:12:37Anytime I hear a new song with fried highs and weak subharmonic bass I immediately think "Ozone mastering plug-in" #avoid
2013-11-13 23:40:16If you're going to master your own material, stick with the Waves L2. It's hard to get a bad sound out of that limiter.

Compressor settings for mastering: slow attack (30 mS); auto release; 4:1 ratio; set the threshold for 1 dB max gain reduction; +1 dB makeup
2013-12-30 00:22:33Compressor settings for vocals: fast attack; 500 mS release; 2:1 ratio; set the threshold for 3-6 dB gain reduction; +5 dB makeup
2013-12-30 00:22:56De-essing is critical for a smooth vocal sound. Most sibilant frequencies are between 4 and 9 kHz. Typical rap vocal sibilance at 5.5 kHz.
2013-12-30 00:23:53Reverb directly on vocals can muck things up quickly. Consider putting a short delay on the vocal instead, then put reverb on the delay.

How to get more subharmonic bass in your mixdowns: except for the bassline, put 75 Hz high-pass filters on every sound (including the kick)
2014-01-14 23:42:20If there's any "secret" to quality mixing and mastering, it's low level monitoring.
2014-01-27 03:53:55The human ear is subject to equal-loudness contour, meaning that frequencies are heard differently based on volume http://t.co/pjz7nehl4x
2014-01-27 04:25:25Basically, the louder you turn things up, the highs and lows artificially leap forward. Definition of the midrange begins to collapse.
2014-01-27 04:27:47Some say 85 dB SPL is the optimum volume for the flattest response. Others say 83 dB. I'm usually doing my mastering in the 70-80 dB range.
2014-01-27 04:30:56And if you're wondering how to measure SPL easily, there's at least 10 iOS/Android apps you can download on your phone right now.
