From Our Research Team:Learn to Master at Home!Mastering is the final stage of creating a piece of recorded music, before either releasing it on the web or duplicating it onto CD for distribution. It's essential for putting the final professional "finish" on the audio; making sure the tone is correctly balanced, the dynamics are controlled, and the level is set properly. Today's recording setups allow you to produce pro-quality tracks at home, but mastering remains a tricky, often misunderstood part of the process. In Mastering Music at Home, Mitch Gallagher shares tips and tricks from top mastering pros, and the included CD-ROM includes real-world examples.About the Author The former Senior Technical Editor of Keyboard magazine and former Editor-in-Chief of EQ magazine, Mitch Gallagher studied electrical engineering and computer science, eventually earning a degree in music.
