Question 1

What is the difference between mixing and mastering?

Accepted Answer

Mixing balances individual tracks, adding effects and EQ. Mastering optimizes the final stereo mix for distribution, loudness, frequency balance, and platform compliance.

Question 2

How loud should my master be?

Accepted Answer

Target -14 LUFS for streaming (Spotify, Apple Music), -16 LUFS for YouTube, -23 LUFS for broadcast. Use a loudness meter (iZotope or Waves) to measure.

Question 3

What is the difference between hard limiting and soft limiting?

Accepted Answer

Hard limiting is instant (brick wall); soft limiting is gradual. Hard limits prevent clipping; soft limits add color and transparency.

Question 4

Why do my masters sound thin compared to professional masters?

Accepted Answer

Monitoring environment matters. Untreated rooms have bass buildup and reflections; you're EQing for your room, not reality. Treat your space first.

Question 5

Should I master my own music?

Accepted Answer

Challenging; ear fatigue and room issues bias judgment. A trained mastering engineer with a treated room produces better results. For learning, yes, practice on others' tracks.

Question 6

How do I handle clipping without losing loudness?

Accepted Answer

Use a soft-knee compressor + limiting chain. Hit the compressor moderately, letting limiting catch peaks. Multiband compression can target only affected frequencies.
