Whats the difference between mixing and mastering?
When mixing we examine each individual track of a recording and use effects/techniques to create the best possible sound from the raw recordings. While mastering, we take your already mixed down recording and improve its overall sound using compression, equalization, etc. Unlike mixing, we aren’t able to tweak individual tracks in the mastering process.
