First mastering session

[Littlefoot]

That Tape Op page is so true I am going to have nightmares about it.

Sounds like your trip to D and M was good!

Nice read - glad you had a great time!

Most MEs seem to think like that.... music before freqs. Freqs are just something that helps the music get where it needs to be. Won't ever forget my first (2nd, 3rd..) sessions, your post rings a lot of bells.

Those tunes sound great, nice to see you enjoyed your first mastering session !

Tomorrow morning I'm sitting in on my first mastering session (as in, for the first time, someone else is mastering my tracks and I'll be there). Any tips from the pros? I'd imagine I'll mostly just be sitting there and letting him do his thing - it's Rashad Becker at D&M so I have faith. But if anyone who's been there before has any suggestions on what could make the session go more smoothly or give a better end result, I'd love to hear 'em (apart from the obvious shit like don't put anything on the master bus and keep your subs in mono).

I've supplied full mixdowns, mixdowns without drums, and mixdowns of drums only, just in case they come in handy. Anything else?

Damn im jealous, D&M is legend Glad you enjoyed it, must have been a hell of an experience
