With my ears getting more and more sensitive to the quality of mastering tracks, I have to say that I was somewhat dissapointed at the final mastering quality of my latest work for Lunar Gala... As Erika tells me, people don't care about the sound quality... Well, the problem is that I do, and I strive to satisfy myself before anybody else. :P So my next step in my venture into the world of music is to analyze my favorite sounds... (i.e. finding the sound of a hihat with just the right amount of treble, the sound of a bass drum with just the right amount of bass, the sound of a car door slamming that gives me just the right resonance, etc... ) I hope I'll be able to at least get semi-good with mastering by the end of summer. ;) I don't have to be great, cuz I don't intend to become a recording engineer in any way... I just need to know exactly what kind of sound I want then I can just outsource the mastering.

I suppose my appetite for music is never ending... There's always so much to learn about everything. But as one of my good buddies (a gruaduate from Berklee) and I always agree, I will never lose focus on the music in its entirety. In the end music is art, not science. ;)

Pleasure to my ears is pleasure to my soul. - dJsLiM -
