Hi, just so you know, I'm definitely a newbee. I've been making some demos using Garageband 3.0, and have gotten to a good place on a couple of the songs, and I want to add warmth, fullness, sparkle and volume. I'm running OSX on an iMac. It would be ideal to get one that's user-friendly, but still with good quality.
Any reccomendations? Thanks in advance! |

Hello to all
I use Magix sequoia for mastering and Plug in Like SSL plug from Wave and BBS somix maximazer but the best is still outboard Like Manley MU COMP/LIMIT Or Weiss EQ1 LP and Sysytem 6000 from TC electronic and the Avalon comp/limit. And you also need a very good sound card Like Apogee or Lavry engineeering I thing T-rack is very bad and too rought I call it the cruching machine and azone make everything sound the same and kill the soul of the sound. But one of the most important is monitoring and you ears.(you got to listen like a mastering emgineer.) I hope this is some help to you C http://ww.audioplexus.com http://ww.audioplexus.co.uk http://www.idmastering.co.uk This post has been edited by audiopl: Thu 7 Dec 2006, 12:59 -------------------- |

You have to remember that the guy that asked the question is completely new to all this and doing demo's in garageband. I dont know about you but when I started I have the resources to buy manely and avalon comps. Just a thought Josh |
