What are the requirements of good production of a trance track? Is some hardware equipment required or Cubase VST 5 & SoundForge 5 are enough for a good production? What actually 'mastering' means?
That's about it for now, thank you in advance. |

Mastering ..... it's the refinement of the recording, usually done with a physical mixer. it's the play with eq's and levels of every audio track so it sounds perfect, it's assuring there's no unwanted noise in SNR units [dB or %] and it's a lot of work. but if u have a very pro audio card, and a good mixer at home, u can produce a good quality music at home. pro audio card assures the sound doesn't have noises and is of a high sampling rate[say 96000 Hz] and sampling size[say 24 bit] then u can record this on a CD, and what is left to do is to replicate it ...

No. What Bilbo said is the mixing part. Mastering is what you do to the track AFTER you record it.

there are lots of complex levels u could go to; using compressors, audio excitters, eq, etc during recording stage and equing the track after its mixed down, putting it through a compressor (the whole track insted of indivudal parts, sumtimes dn after mixdown)
actually there are no particular rules, i kno people who do it a lot of different ways. guys (i mean, as to doing certain things during recording / mixdown, or at mastering stage)
essential for good production is actually recording the individual parts undistorted before the mixdown stage... sounds obvious, but a people fail to do this |
