After watching a billion videos with male mastering engineers its so nice and refreshing to see this video. Totally different vibe as well - very cool.

This was helpful. Thanks!

You should do another video with some tip and tricks about mastering for vinyl, which is quite different from mastering for cd or web, there's eq on both low and high frequencies. I know that people at home are probably not so much interested about this topic but since there's a laquer cut in there this could be interesting anyway and you don't find so much videos about it around, especially videos nside a mastering studio :)

I can tell the room is treated very well because I hear no reverb at all in this video

so glad to see your subscriber count grow. i remember from the low 100s. really happy for you, keep going!

very cool episode

As a recording engineer, I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again… mastering is seriously like black magic, some of this stuff is crazzyy

Awesome gear

Maselec MEA2 & Elysia Alpha, that's the dream 🤤 Edit: spoke too soon, it's a Sontec 🤣

The clocking is super important, it’s not just making sure it’s the same sample rate it’s that all are doing it at the exact same timing… it greatly improves clarity to simple all for the same and it improves again how well the cooking does that in the first place and why there are different price ranges for clocking

She should have mastered this EP

No audio interface? No AD/DA?

am i missing something? that room looks to be acoustic treatment free?

I still use the same banks of eq, compressors, etc. that I used on our The Nightshade Project (shoegaze genera) recordings in the 1990s, before there was a screen in the studio. The earliest days, mastering was done by re-running a recording through a single bank several times to get the layering of eq and compression they wanted. Obviously it didn’t take long for them to figure out how to use as few passes as possible running through multi-banks.

It seems simple. Playing a violin seems simple too! 😅

Your song structure aka arrangement RU-vid video was very helpful to me LNA. And it sure does make perfect 🤩 😍 👍 sense to me. But I sure did add some things to your song structure in the comments down below 👇 hopefully 🙏 you will check it out when you have time to do it or so.

S U P E R .......

Terms and conditions of this mastering studio--- 7.2.1 notwithstanding any other provision contained within this Agreement all Master Recordings and/or Ancillary Materials shall be held by the Company at the Client’s sole risk; --this is after you pay and get your masters. Any thoughts on this clause?

So interesting to peek into a real studio. Thank you again, both of you! 🙏👍

Intro - from the word “Introduction”, this part comes at the beginning of the song. It is usually an . It also gives the listener a hint of what genre the song is and what expression it may give. An intro, when compared to the plot of a story, is the opening or the “Once upon a time” part of the song. Your honest opinion for song structure is to make story and create your own arrangement and your track is to make story and flows nicely from start to end. The Outro is how the songwriter wants to finish the journey with the listener. It may be a big, final chord that leaves the listener a little breathless, wanting to stand and applaud. Or, it may be a smooth chord that rings out. It may be a repeating phrase that gradually fades away. The choice will again depend on the context, then genre and the feeling in the song.

Thank you so much. This is the video about the actual process of mastering that I needed to see. It's so much clearer now. So many processes that are easy to forget they need to be done.

I learned DAW on Magix's Samplitude before switching to Ableton Live. It is so good to see someone still rep'n Samplitude. But I wonder why she cuts vinyl still? Vinyl is like a dead medium nowadays. Even DJs are moving away from it for digital turntables.

Gratitude & Appreciation💯

This is so cool!

Which model is the clock?

Great advice @ 9:40 . Would like to see more interviews with Cicely.

I kai know what you meant instead of words one is verse 1.

Awesome interview & walk through 👏🏽

What is your accent, Dutch English

Great tour! Thanks so much!

😀

Interesting...a mastering room without bass traps or any treatement.

Thank you, Liina, 😇

No tripod for the camera, not watching your video. Makes me physically ill to watch.

Never saw a mastering room with no acoustic treatment whatsoever. You can't possibly hear what you're doing in there.
