I'm doing a study on audio mastering. Hopefully
this
letter will generate some correspondance from which
I'll learn enough to augment a GFDL licensed document
that I've been working on.
I look forward to reading that. Mastering is a mystery to me, so I've
just sent off for a book called Mastering Audio - the Art and the
Science by Bob Katz. Are there any other titles that list members
could recommend on the subject?
I know there are specialist mastering applications on other platforms,
but what are the options on Linux? I know Audacity has recently added
a gui compressor, and Glame used to have a great normalisation tool.
Plus there's quite a few relevant LADSPA plugins - I know Steve
Harris was working on a mastering toolkit.
It seems to me we've got all the elements there, but they haven't
really been drawn together specifically for mastering yet. I'm just
compiling Glame 1.0 now to see what that's like.
Cheers
Daniel
