I'm an old pro at songwriting, performing and recording (I'm presently recording with a Roland VS-1880 Digital Studio) ... but now I'm getting into mastering my own tracks on my Mac G4 - OS X and trying to educate myself on the processes.
I'm trying to decide which one of two mastering programs I want to purchase: 1 - T-RackS - my favorite so far ... tube sounds and mastering ONLY. 2 - Sound Forge 7.0 Is anyone familiar with either of these? Or do you have other suggestions? ProTools is a bit pricey ... especially considering I ONLY want a mastering suite. Thanks.

I don't have any experience with T-RackS, and Soung Forge is Windows-only...
However, I can give a recommendation for Bias Deck 3.5, which is what I use for mixing/mastering. There are a few drawbacks between Deck and ProTools, such as you're limited to 16-bit audio and 24 tracks. However, it is only $320. |
