Hello!<br><br>In a month or so I&#39;ll for the first time in my life attempt to master two smaller EPs (my own music should be added). I&#39;ve worked up a fairly good skillset with some parts of the mastering (multiband compressing etc) but I need some major help with tips for what I&#39;m trying to accomplish, which is:<br>
<br>* I want a similar soundlevel throughout the whole of the EP, eg. I want the songs to be similar in strength even if they are dissimilar in dynamics/type of song. Some songs are naturally more &quot;aggressive&quot; and thus will be a bit stronger, but I want the climaxes in the more easy going songs to be as strong.<br>
<br>I realise that most of this will be done through the traditional &quot;just listen and compare&quot;, but I&#39;m wondering if there are any other analyzingtools that might ease my work a bit? Like analysing RME for the whole song, will that give a fair indication that can be compared amongst songs? Fatigued ears and the need for alot of small breaks is calculated with, but those difficulties will be pretty testing for me I think with my low patience lol, so anything that makes the process easier is good stuff!<br>
Mastering on my own like this probably isn&#39;t that good, I know, but I&#39;m looking at it as an opportunity to learn some tricks of the trade.<br><br>I will be using plugins from linuxDSP together with a few Calf ones and the Foo Limiter, so no Jamin etc. <br>
<br>Do you have any general tips for me etc? All tips I can get are greatly appreciated!<br><br>Thanks in advance, regards,<br>
