I dont know whats going on there😅, i dont hear any changes in every steps. i'm so sorry, may be its cause by my monitor, which is medium grade earbuds😂. But i see the point in each steps. Good explanation by the way. 👍👍

Nice work. Maybe next time talk about the overall target level of the master. Your camera was covering up your master bus, so we couldn't even see what level you were hitting.

Great to see a Reaper mastering tutorial. Even though I spent my first full year mixing with all stock Reaper plugins, I wouldn’t have thought to try them in a mastering chain. Definitely not the same outcome as using more sophisticated tools, but a good starting place for sure. Some feedback, which echos what others have also mentioned: The saturation and compression applied ends up making the vocals sound pretty aggressively distorted by the time you reached limiting. I assume this was not the attended aesthetic choice? I’d be interested to know if there’s a way to avoid that while still using these tools to achieving the desired end result. Also, it’s not clear what loudness the record ended up at. So, if you were to remake this video, that would be a key improvement. Other things it would great to cover would be how to use stock plugins to achieve extended and dynamic width (e.g. stereo widening and mid-side processing). This is something it seems is pretty common to mastering these days. Thanks for the walkthrough. Looking forward to incorporating elements of your approach into how I think about teaching no/low-cost Reaper post-production in the future 🙏🏽

I followed your process for mastering and found that my ears couldn't really pick up any difference in the track except for the limiting that you used as the last plugin. I then went and listened to "Moonlight" on Spotify and was amazed at the spaciousness and clarity of the vocals and drum track. Was the version on Spotify also done using reaper, or did you use some other mastering program?

@TheFendertak 9 месяцев назад

first off I will say your song Moonlight is definitely song of the year, super in every little detail, the vocals outstanding!! I am basically a newbie with Reaper, now using 7, I have been singing and playing for years, but now I'm putting hours and hours into recording my own songs playing all the instruments, for now mostly country, easier to start with I think, have a s*** load of plugins, entire waves suite, fab filter and a boutique of universal audio plugins, I have everything but master of none, in regards to mastering I think I was going about it totally wrong in that I would do the mastering on the main track before rendering, so now am I first to render my song to Wav file when I feel I have completed the final editing process and then bring it back into a new project and then perform the final mastering procedure, will I ever get it right..

Thanks for the kind words. It sounds like you are on the right track. Keep at it. 👍
