Anyway, I jumped all over David's proposal.
The
topic
is a pet peve of mine and I'm on a personal mission.
I got distracted and didn't make my point clear. I
mean to say that what David is proposing is a common
opinion on the topic and so I'm not trying to jump
down his throat. If I ever have a mission beyound
trying to make it to the bathroom on time it is to
dispell the proposal that mastering is difficult.

Mastering to me comes from a long line of mystery!
It should be the last 'clean up' of a virtually good mix, not
the be all and end all of a long proccess.
Anyone can re-mix a track, its all subjective, try it yourself,
fire up XMMS and mess with the EQ, your re-mixing the tracks.
Wether their better is subject to interpretation.
mastering is only what you have been doing on the Multitrack, but using
the stereo 2 track to control any dynamics you feel need to sit better.

Bob
Rant over!

I hope this helps.
