What Audio Mastering Software Should I Choose? Options

[WhoForTheJoy]

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 all
I thing many of your comments are right and some are not so right
At AudiopleXus we have a motto (Don't believe at what we say beleive at what we do)
Every customer can have a free trial of them mastering so if you are not %100 happy with the result you have nothing to pay it's that simple and it's what made our reputation and now we are almos booked solid.
So yes you need the gear and yes the room the monitors and the engineer but also the skill the experience and the PASSION for it without all of them..............
When you do mastering it’s not just the sound it’s also the feeling in the song what the song mean to who ever wrote it and never change the mix and making sound big beautiful and loud.
The best format to send to the studio is Music track vocal track and back vocal track.
And by doing that we have made our reputation
The studio was build by pro acoustician and I did the wiring by hand I got a 600 meters balanced microphone cable roll and all Neutronic plugs and solder them all by hand. The digital too but not the toslink optical
By the way we are using now the Weiss EQ1 DYN/LP and Weiss Comp/Limit and the only digital gear that do not sound digital it’s just so transparent.
So if you want to know how your music will sound mastered by a pro let me know ….it’ll cost you NOTHING on a FTP or on the you send it site (if by post or delivery service you’ll get that cost.)
New at making music in your bed room garage or in a pro studio we take them all very seriously as we take making a dream to reality very seriously.
Agreeing and disagreeing that what make thing change .
Anyway happy Christmas to all from AudiopeXus and if you don’t celebrate it happy what ever you're celebrating.
C
