If you already own the UAD version, you get the Spark version free. If not, you have to buy it (or subscribe).
I think you’re maybe misunderstanding what a ref track is - it doesn’t have to have the “same instrumentation per section” as the track you’re...
Sounds about right lol. There is a saying: you don't ever actually finish a mix, you abandon it... More seriously though, this basically just...
Use. Your. Ears. Mastering is about making a track sound as good as it possibly can, across a wide range of playback systems and environments....
