Default Re: Fixing Clipping in Master in Master Fader

Quote:
So is it the best way to route all tracks to a aux bus first and put the mastering limiter there? Or just put it in the first insert of the master fader? Any difference on sound?
Most often I bus everything to an aux when mixing, yes. But I use that for mix bus compression, coloration and EQ if I want it, and have the master fader free for adjusting listening volume, whithout it influencing the compressor. Then if I want to bounce I can put a brickwall limiter on the master fader, plus dither, and use the aux fader for volume automation and fade outs, again without the compression being affected because aux plugins are pre fader.

Difference in sound? Itīs all ones and zeros.
