The Art of Mastering

About Mastering | Wolf's Equipment List

Mastering is a critical step before pressing a CD or releasing to a digital aggregator. It requires a dedicated listening environment with calibrated acoustics and specialized equipment.

Mastering is more than just putting the songs in order and inserting spacing between songs. Tools such as compression, EQ, and noise reduction are used to ensure that the sound is optimized for a variety of listening devices such as car radios, home stereos and cell phone players.

There is as much art as science involved in the process, given the wide tonal range that can be achieved in the CD and other digital formats.

Mastering adds punch and polish, making your music sound its best.
