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! |

I've been doing this for years & I STILL really can't afford any Manley or Avalon gear & Apogee converters are not exactly cheap either. Also keep in mind, truly accurate mastering requires some really expensive monitors & the properly treated acoustic environment. Having said that there is no shame in paying someone else to master your audio. If they have the gear & the room they will definitely do a better job & these days mastering can come inexpensively.
