What is Mastering ?

Mastering is the art of capturing the most of a musical performance and thereby faithfully rendering the artist’s vision. Mastering helps bridge the distance between the artist and the listener.

Moreover, mastering makes music compatible and competitive for the consumer market, so that each title sounds right on any kind of stereo system.

How is Mastering done ?

Mastering (aka Premastering) brings the various frequency levels of a music title into perfect harmony. Sub-bass, mid-range, presence, and hi-end are individually edited.

Multi-band compression, limiting and SPL maximizing are used to obtain the optimal sound level and perfect volume level (subjective audible volume level) of the different frequencies. The human ear hereby proves itself a particular challenge because it perceives various volume levels differently strong. Each kind of music gets it's specific dynamic and level, in special cases this means maximum attack.

Mastering can also influence the stereo signal. Stereo balance, stereo spread and stereo phase are edited. This is to guarantee that nothing is erased, such as in the bass level, or when a title is heard in mono, or with a very large stereo base.

Noises are eliminated. A special analysis can separate noises from the original signal. They are removed through noise reduction, de-clicking, de-cracking. De-essing removes disturbingly strong "s" or sibilants.

The beginning and ending of a title is cut exactly, or edited to turn a maxi into a single version.

The mastering of a CD additionally generates P/Q data which is needed to mark the individual titles and their specific identification (ISRC code).
