You definitely need a different environment for mastering. You've already been give the things you need to do to get a good mastering environment. People get paid a lot of money to do the job you're asking about - take advantage of them. |

Mastering with Pro Tools Plugins???
Yes I really think you should master in a different room where you mixed. No matter whether you're self-mastering or hiring someone else, you need second opinion.

Also, Just go pay people a lot of money to do it for you? Sounds like you're saying, basically, it's a waste of time to learn Mastering? I usually use 3 different types of Monitors/Speakers to Mix. My Mixes translate pretty darn good on all types of listening environments. What would be different about a Mastering Room other than Gear & another set of ears. By the way I do bring in other Engrs to Mix so I do add a fresh set of ears to the Mix. In So Cal Bernie Grundman is a highly regarded Mastering Facility. Many Hit Records & Albums. I know several Artists who Master their stuff there. They keep going back because there is significantly noticeable improved Sound on their Masters that separate them from the run of the Mill Records. I do appreciate positive feedback. Larsongs |

Never said it was a waste of time and money to learn mastering. What's been said is you really don't want to master your own material because of too much familiarity with the material. Like I wrote earlier it's like the squeak in a car - you never hear it anymore but those that ride in your car do. There may be issues in your material that you're not hearing because you've become immune to them. |

And the other things you write about room having flat frequency response etc, indicates a very limited studio experience in general. I'm not trying to be mean here, but you sound like you want "mastering yourself" to make your mixes sound better, and that's what everybody here have been trying to convince you is a bad approach. You should improve your mixing skills if you are not happy with your mixes. I guess they each have their own settings on the graphic EQ then? Last edited by Ben Jenssen; 02-29-2016 at 11:34 AM. |

Mastering with Pro Tools Plugins???
I agree with albee. Send it out. As everyone has stated. Ears man. Is this something you really want to do? Do you plan on making money with it? I would auggest hanging out with a mastering engineer when you can. I thought Mastering was taking completed mix songs and arranging them musically and feel while equing etc.?
albee turned me onto Wavelab. Should check it out.
