    Hello, do songs downloaded from Spotify have no Mastering?
    When I upload such a track to FL, the meter shows -6dB mastering margin.
    I have over 30 tracks downloaded from spotify and famous producers TRAP genre and each one shows -6db headroom.
    It looks like they just put a mix in there
    I don't want to believe that they put their music there without mastering.
    Anybody knows what's going on?

    Because of loudness normalization (volume reduction to reach default -14LUFSi reference).

    Turn off loudness normalization under preferences.
