I've been hammered with mastering and mixdown questions over the last few months, so I decided to make a tutorial on it.

You can find it in the Tutorial section of www.rebirth-productions.co.uk

It's an in-depth tutorial covering the different aspects of the mixdown and mastering stages.

Hope it helps some of you guys.

Pierre Pienaar eh? What a great name you've got!

Nice, will have a look at this tomorrow, but always a good thing when people share knowledge!



(BTW off topic but my friend is changing her last name to pienaar next month as she's getting married, so one more enters the world)

Hey thanks so much! You know I ALWAYS read a mastering tutorial. ALWAYS. They all pretty much say the same thing, but sometimes someone has enough balls to say THIS is good and THIS is bad...I like that you make recommendations rather than just say "experiment to see what's right for your mix". PFFFT. Like my mix is gonna need drastically different measures than yours, right?
Really great Pierre! Nice site too! *Sigh. luv to hate you.

P.S. Whats bosots ?

One more question:

You say,

Also remember that you shouldn’t mix your track with the compressor on…It should only be put on as the last step before exporting.

Do you mean dont mix the track with the compressor on THE MASTER CHANNEL?? or on the sends?? what?

No, it should be on the master channel, but it should NOT be on while you're working on the track. You should only turn it on or enable it once the track is finished and you're done setting your levels. Putting the compressor on is the last step you have to do before you export the track.

Did that clear it up ?
