Everyone uploading is cool, but here's my two cents...does it have to be on the front page? Maybe the top five or whatever could be on the front, is there really a need to have a front page? I mean at 8bc I just started ignoring the front page after awhile...

Normally a mastering house has a super talented guy with golden ears working with gear worth millions.
The standard processing he/she does to the already mixed material, is applying multiband compressor and EQ. Doesn't sound like much but it usually makes all the difference in getting commercial/professional sounding album.Nowadays any ol' granny and her dog claims they're mastering by slapping a Waves L2 limiter on the master bus in their bedroom studio.
I guess the VST era has it's pro's and con's...If you're going to release a commercial album, don't get tempted by skipping the mastering stage by being cheep or go the DIY route. You'll be surprised of what a pro can do.
If you're interested in some hardcore audio mastering knowledge, get a copy of "Mastering audio" by Bob Katz.
(There are pdf's of this book floating around the web.)
Sweet, I'll check out that book, thanks!

Nothing is really "magic", is it?
I seriously doubt mastering is something that isn't logically explainable and analyzable, and I'd like to know more about it. What is it besides normalizing, compression, and eq'ing?
