Hello everybody, i've recently sent in a track of mine to a label, and they want an unmastered version so that they can check it out and see if its worthy of a proper master. But i don't know how to get it to an unmastered version? i mean, i've not sent this off for mastering before. But the guy says i should have no master plugins on the main bus. Any ideas how to get it to an unmastered state on FL Studio 9? It already feels like its unmastered :S
Any help would be appreciated
Thanks.

Yeah take all plugins off the master unless it's absolutely necessary for creative purposes. If it's clipping, turn the master fader down. (Leave the volume sliders near the play button at default.)

Yeah, no Fruity Limiter or Maximus or Sound Goodizer or any other multiband compression.
