Indeed, it would be fantastic to hear things before they get to mastering. And unfortunately, that's become "normal", so it's not surprising that it's worked its way into my process. But yes it would certainly take discipline for me to not obsess over how loud I could, or should, make something precisely because, mixes being forced too loud is much of what I've heard for the past two decades, as pointed out. But, I'll also take it as a big slice of humble pie that will be good for me because I respect you and believe you know your stuff really well. Honestly, this line makes me mad.maybe I'm taking it too personally, LOL. I think a whole generation.and maybe going on two now, don't have any clue how to mix because they've never HEARD mixes before.and they suddenly get a DAW and want to do it. ![]() How is it they go about trying to make a mix like Maroon 5 when they've never heard a Maroon5 mix? So, they try to make the drums as loud as theirs.then they flatline the, at the end, they just have a smaller sounding recording that is all crushed.where Maroon's mixes are likely double digit DR like mixes have ALWAYS BEEN.some ME crushes it to DR6 and kids are missing a whole chunk of the process. anyway, now, people want to emulate say Maroon5.all they have is a 24/44 master that's clipped.or the CD that's clipped.maybe there's MFiT that at least isn't clipped, but it's DR6 or something. Why would I? If I wanted to hear it, I could make a better cassette froim the DAT than their "mastered bulk cassette". Granted-some of THAT specific one was my not great turntable at home.and we didn't have one in the studio.but, even when we started mixing TO digital, it was 48khz DAT.which again-CD was always lossy and more people at that indie level did cassette. I mean "masters" then were redbook CD? Is there anyone that thinks that's what the analog 2bus sounded like? It got to where I couldn't even stomach it when clients had vinyl cut-it was SO far from what we did in the studio. When I was learning the difference in a mix and a master was subtle.and typically negative.
