You could try using Ozone 9, between Mastering Assistant and Tonal Balance Control 2 it should be easy for someone with your experience to get a decent sound. (50 PRESETS) Pick and choose what you like, refer to each preset name to see what it should be used for. This pack is a compilation of many different FLPs ive made. I can't recommend a catch all compressor or eq setting because there's no such thing. 1.) Drag and Drop the presets into an Empty Mixer slot, save the preset to use later. Without actually hearing your songs, there isn't much more I can recommend. Most people who tell me they think something is missing are showing a giant hole somewhere in their mix, usually somewhere in the mids.Īnother common mistake is to make the bass way too loud, inexperienced engineers generally love too much bass and don't leave enough room for the rest of the mix. Then, you can just try to make the eq curve flat while your mixing and there's a good chance it'll be close to where you would want it. You can do this in FL by going into Parametric EQ 2, clicking the arrow to go into the options, and setting the pivot slope to 4.5 db/oct. IMO a good master won't change the sound of the song much, but if you think your mixes are missing something, there's a good chance that they are.Ī rule of thumb for most commercially produced music is to mix to a -4.5db/oct slope.
