  2. What happens to my recording at the mastering stage?

  3. Why do I need mastering? Well here’s just one classic example of why Mastering is so crucial to your music. Let’s just say the artist is in the studio and is hearing the mix just the way they like it. Clear, bright, full of excitement, but when they leave the studio,

  4. Equalisation Equalisation (or tonal adjustment), is the most important process at the mastering stage.A mastering suite should be set up so as the monitoring and acoustics produce a very accurate and unbiased listening environment. www.crystalmastering.com.au

  5. Balancing levels Balancing levels between tracks on an album is crucial in establishing a consistent feel to a recording. Another related issue is the average, or overall volume. Careful use of compression can assist in raising the average level of a recording,

  6. Stereo enhancing is another function of mastering. If a recording has poor imaging (i.e. weak positioning of individual instruments in a mix), mastering can adjust this problem to create a more three dimensional stereo field. www.crystalmastering.com.au

  7. Editing Editing through the use of dedicated mastering software is another aspect of the process. This allows precise editing to be done as well as basic compiling of album tracks. Un-wanted clicks and noises at the beginning of tracks can also be removed as well fades being placed at the tail of songs.

  8. This stage allows the artist to determine what sort of spacing should be inserted between individual tracks.

  9. Adding sub-code information is also part of the mastering process. Accurate PQ encoding ensures that your CD’s index points will start exactly where you want them to, www.crystalmastering.com.au

  10. Noise removal Noise removal is an option at the mastering stage which enables ‘tape hiss’ or ‘electronic noise’ to be removed from the rest of the music.

  11. Audio Restoration is an extension of this process where aging and deteriorating recordings can be sonically cleaned for re-release purposes. Audio Restoration

  12. Sophisticated mastering software Sophisticated mastering software is able to remove noise and hiss as well as crackles, pops and clicks. Crystal Mastering uses Cedar™ & NoNoise™ restoration tools.
