Well there are a couple of things that you can do: That means that as I’m looking at my final mix before exporting, I’m checking out the loudest parts on the song, watching the master track to make sure that I am seeing that 6-8 dB of headroom. I like to give myself about 6-8 dB of headroom to work with. It can be kind of confusing when you read a bunch of different material on how much headroom you need for the mastering process. So what’s the right level to bounce everything down to? There is also something else that you can do in FL Studio at this point as well that I think is amazing, but I’m going to save that until later. So now your computer’s resources are free to focus on making some of these final adjustments to the mix, making your track sparkle and shine. So when you set up a new project with this track, there is nothing in your mixer. Once you have bounced down your mix, you have essentially printed all the eq, compression, effects and automations onto this stereo track. Well, for me, it’s mostly about saving processing power in my computer. Why would you want to bounce everything down? What that essentially means is that you are bouncing all your recorded tracks down to a stereo track so that you can then process it separately. The first step in this whole process is to get your track that you finished mixing exported. Using YouLean to help finalize the song.
So I’m going to break his process down into 5 basic steps: He works mostly in the Pop/EDM category, but I found all the process he talked about to be useful and pretty clear.Īnd I am basically breaking down what he taught, and how I did it with what he showed. I went out and found a great tutorial video on this process. I don’t know about you, but I don’t have an infinite budget at my disposal, so being able to learn a skill that keeps me from having to pay someone else from doing it for right now seems like a great idea.Īnd I just love learning new things.
So to that end, the more that I can figure out how to do on my own, the more music music I will be able to release. Hopefully to shortcut the way for you to get to mastered tracks that you can be proud of. I love the process of digging in, learning from others who have gone before me, and then sharing that experience with you. But it is rewarding to learn how to do something that you have found to be strange and hard. I’m just getting started in this journey of learning how to master my own music. It may seem like a bit of unicorn, but I believe it is possible.Īnd I’m going to show you how to do exactly that. I wanted to figure out a way to simplify the process as much as possible, so that I could master a song in FL Studio, all with plugins that are readily available. Mastering has always seemed like a strange, mysterious thing to me. Have you ever wondered how to master a song in FL Studio?
