the far more expensive WAVELAB does DDP but requires the USB key thing. Wavelab elements (deosnt require the cubase ilok thingy) doesn't do DDP.
Honestly I don't know which way to go here. I installed the HOFA demo yesterday, unfortunately the demo doesn't allow you to make DDP images so I can't test that. Saves you the expense and hassle of getting the mastering house to make a CD and the resultantĬost of checking that CD and the possibility of replication a gazillion CDs that end up as coasters. I have used wave burner for a few years and burnt tons of cds using it, and never noticed anything.Īs a lot of stuff seems to have gone over to DDP rather the PMCD disks, which I never knew existed (DDP) prior to a few days ago, I was looking into something that could create those type files, and a player so clients could play the DDP image.ĭDP as I understand it, is a file that you can create that you then upload to the Duplication/Replication house, and you never have errors because of checksums. I found a flurry of posts about how wave burner had serious issues in writing files and was writing bad disks.
MASTERING WITH WAVEBURNER HOW TO
I couldn't remember how to instal just it and not logic 9, and was searching about.
MASTERING WITH WAVEBURNER PROFESSIONAL
I’ll show you how to master a range of genres and take you through all the steps needed to make your masters sound like professional records.I had changed computers, and hadn't installed wave burner. This fly-on-the-wall course shows you exactly how to make masters that sound great. If you’re still struggling, check out my Master Your Mixes course right here. The tricky part is to make your ragtag collection of demos sound like a record. Go back and forth between all the songs until they sound like a record.īecause it’s easy to make one song sound good. Looking at the frequency response in your meters might sound like cheating, but it is a good way to see if one song is lacking in a certain area.Īnd finally, like I said, compare. Use metering tools to gauge the loudness and frequency response of each song. Back and Forth ComparisonsĪfter that, it’s all about going back and forth between songs to make sure they blend well with each other. I use Waveburner for mastering and it’s easy to raise or lower the gain of each song so that they all flow together nicely.Īs for frequency and dynamic range goes, I use multiband compression with very similar settings across the board and I always use a reference track to gauge how my masters sound compared to a commercial track.
You can’t have one louder than the other and they need to sound similar both in dynamic range and frequency response.Ī great way to start is to make sure each song is at the same volume. You need to make every song sound like they belong together. Mastering is like making a ragtag band of teenagers play as a team We’ve talked about this before, and you should be familiar with the steps needed to get a good sounding master.īut when you throw a few more songs into the mix it becomes trickier.īecause the goal is to make this collection of songs sound like an album. You see, making one song sound good isn’t that difficult.
