    This is my first attempt. mp3, 320kbps, dynamic range in TT DR offline translated to 0,0dB 7,51dB



    @mozee how much would that be in LUFS (just for the books)

    Hahaha @LUFS :)

    I like it. Its a bit muted compared to the original. I noticed in satai's and in no avenger's mix mids are more pronounced? Like it misses clarity, but it probably has to do with the fact that I have listened to the original mix progression and almost final version over 500 times.

    I definitely tamed the highs. According to analyzer, my monitors and my ears they were really too loud/sharp.

    FOUND THE EFIN GLITCH POP CRACKLE SOURCE! WOO HOO

    Damn I wish I looked into that B section of tantra before... Literally last fx... called glitch. out of 12 other effects in A/B section. Those crackles bothered me since the beginning, but I didnt want to mention them.

    Down there:

    Good work guys, nice final master for the genre Spencer, seems you know yer stuff, loud yet somehow unsquashed:shalom:

    No Avenger I actually preferred your first attempt it seemed more open,rounded and not overly loud, I thought it was really pretty good moosh :wink:

    Satai yours is probably closest to my own personal preferrence, somehow it sounds more delicate:chilling:

    Looking forward to hearing Mozee's work.

    Like both No Avenger's versions. Small differences. I prefer the newest one! Can you please send me that 48k and 41k final versions for archive and soundcloud first post comparison, No Avenger.

    Without hearing mozee's master, I must say what Seedz said before (I didnt actually read his post first. I only heard masters lol).

    Everyone did incredible effort to help, and even more, to find time and energy to help me with mastering.

    Spencer did above human effort to make it SOUND! The hardest part of the process, mix, individual tracks, effects. Yor final master, Spencer, is incredible, clear and loud.

    Everyone came with suggestions and tutorials. All masters are a new world to me, a dream come true, that my music can SOUND good. I know my way now.

    The mix that stands out closest to the thump I wanted, when that road opened in the end, that I can pick from different flavours, is Satai's.

    I will have very hard time desicion which master to upload to public to soundcloud and youtube channel, and some abstract video Im doing for the music. Whichever I choose, is the same, in the end, for me, because they are incredible masters. Now I have even more respect, if possible, for guys helping me through your threads. I hit the place, I hit the forum, I hit people right in the center. First attempt at any online place, and got overwhelmed by help and effor.

    Waiting for mozee on Saturday :)

    Thank you everyone.

    edit: if mozee doesnt come up with something spectacular, its Satai's master :) :) :)
    edit: damn it, these other masters sound so juicy, too... Oh, God...
    edit: What do you people do when you like all masters...
    edit: This is a torture... Or why it should be? Satai's master it is.

    I will upload this song and some abstract video that I made just for background on my youtube channel. Is it OK to mention www.audiosex.pro forum and say thanks to it and individual members who contributed to the project? Has it been done before? Should I?

    Promotion for AS? Sure.
    Saying thanks? If deserved [​IMG]
    And mention members? At least I can't see any disadvantages. Maybe the others?

    Wait a minute... I'm old... you kid's master for phone speakers?? Holy shit!!!!
    Besides that: What again is the problem with the Version from 15.11.? It sounds good on my setup.
    And I like how my setup sounds, so... Don't fix it, it ain't fucking broken.
    It lacks a little the low frequencies. So dail in 80Hz, done. And don't make yourself mad
    because your track doesn't kill a bull from 15 meters when played on an 80 bucks android device.

    Hey, thx for response Plendix. The job on track is now done, and it has been a hell of a ride. Noone is kids here.

    If anyone was being a kid, it was me, since I simply asked if it is OK not to sound good even on mobile device, because music I like sounds good there... Yet, I also described how I returned to everything after 15 years. Know how to play and can create melodies, since I play piano and make melodies for decades, but I didnt know how to make it sound decent using DAW and accompanying software. Thats all. Thx for input, though. You start of post lacked respect for others.

    I dont know, No Avenger. Has it been done already? I thought of writing credits on YT, like thanks for support of this fantastic community audiosex.pro, and incredible members who helped me, naming 5-6 guys. Will wait until weekend, if anyone shows up for comment on this.
