I can't believe I made it to this point. It has not been an easy process. I jumped around too much. Thankfully I didn't have to scrap the whole thing. After this first release I will do better. I just need to move forward or else I will never get started. Thank you for making this available to all of us trying to make music on our own.
It’s still a bit of a whole other language to me, but your videos have gotten me a lot closer to fully understanding all this. I appreciate your work so much!

Bro.... been using garageband since 2008. You've opened up a whole new world of mixing for me!
I agree with the subtlety because you also have to consider the EQ on someone’s stereo they’re playing the song on which elevates levels on top of the mastered song
I would have been lost without these tutorials. Thank you.
This was excellent. Thank you!
Dude, your videos are great! Thanks for all the helpful info
Colin, thank you for walking me through this. I've gotten a louder, more commercial level master from this video today without clipping it to death and wrecking the mix. You are awesome, sir.
Ive been using an IA mastering platform for years, always scared to do it myself. Thank you for simplifying, and now I feel like I can.
I’ve been exploring GB by myself and have always struggled with my mixes up until I discovered your channel. Much thanks.
💫💫💫💫💫 5 star review great video defenetly will be applying these steps on future songs keep up the videos I love them
Can’t wait to try this, I have been using master desk. I’m gonna definitely try this out. Thank you.

Amazing channel! The best about sound edition in RUclips!
THIS VIDEO IS SAVING MY MUSIC
Thank you SO MUCH for making such informative yet beginner friendly videos. I've stumbled upon many videos where they assumed we knew the vocabulary they used. My music is gonna be so much better thanks to you. Your work has an impact !
This playlist has helped me out a lot. Getting ready to master my first couple songs. I’ve got your sample song we’ve been working on stuck in my head for the rest of my life. Lol
First of all thank you so much to you Colin for all your youtube tutorial videos and free download instructions and cheatsheets. Following your instructions was so very helpful. I am just starting up to do this mixing things and i think i am so happy with my first compostions result. I tried doing records and mixing before but it sounds no good, but with all your help i think i understand now a little bit to how make things good than better 😁 thank you so much and i really appreciate your efforts in explaining everything so easily to digest. Keep safe always and have a good one.
I have never seen anyone compareeee the progression in all 20 diff channels I’ve watched…. You’ve earned my subscription ❤
awesome tutorial, thanks so much
Well to be perfectly honest i've used mastering presets when I worked with my porta studio before 😳.
So, this is the last step that I really have to learn and raise my knowledge about and this video was of great help. It's great to discover this different formulas for every step in the mixing process and it's all about knowledge and to grab the whole subject of mixing and learn and practise.
Thanks Boss!
Thank you so much for this!! Because you I just mastered my first track for distribution! LETSSSSS GOOOOOOOO!!!
THANK YOU!
I love your videos as they are super helpful. One major setting / item to uncheck is the Audio Normalization in the advanced settings. If checked it then GarageBand will automatically increase your volume when exporting your mix and you’ll bang your head against the wall trying to master it. I couldn’t figure out why my exported mixes were so much louder and finally I found this thanks to Google. Hopefully this helps someone. Thanks Colin for helping us all out!
Awesome! Thanks for the tip. I still can't get my MVMeter to hit the right numbers. It's +3 even though my Lufts numbers are good.
Thank you!!
Thank you so much for your absolutely great videos! I'm actually producing my very first own song and didn't understand anything. Thanks to your channel it sounds pretty well now 🙏
duuude the double limiter was so helpful
Ride on thanks again really appreciate it!
I've been mastering with a method I learned from another RUclips GB channel. But I have been learning so much from your channel. I can't wait to try your method of mastering. I've also tried using the presets in GB. My music is so different I have to learn a lot more since I cross through many different genres of music, folk, country, rock, blues, and pop. If you could touch on different genres in one of your videos it would be appreciated.
I have viewed many of your videos, so helpful. Thank you for sharing your knowledge Colin.
Hey I'm glad they've been helpful!
@@TheBandGuide quick question I’m kind of skeptical to see if keeping the case on my iPhone in will affect the quality of the sound what is your opinion?
@@TheBandGuideI’m a iPhone user
This video is a life-saver... or should I say a song-saver... Thanks again...
🙌🏼
I really like your two limiters one after the other to get finer control. I've been so far mostly using bx_masterdesk Classic and more recently LoudMax but I'll definitely try the two limiters approach.
Hello Colin! Your series "The ULTIMATE GarageBand Beginner's Guide" is once again phenomenal! The only information missing is: What should the master track look like before exporting a song to disk before mastering? Should there be no effects like EQ or Compressor running on the master track at all? Thanks for your answer in advance! Many greetings from Northern Germany
I've been working with GarageBand for the last +5 years, but I got a PC recently and comparing the same recordings with the same settings I've noticed a big quality difference, then I noticed it was because the Sample Rate in my Mac is stucked at 44,1Khz and for what I know I need to use the biggest rate in order to achieve a good quality once I start adding pluggins etc... So I have to say goodbye to GarageBand and to all the channels that helped me to use it properly, now I'm using Reaper and it's a huge difference, thank you very much!!!
I was able to get Buster SE to show up in my plugins. So I've got this all set up and present for class, LOL.
Great series ...still doing baby steps....improving drums, improving bass (distortion) working on vocals.....probably use mastering hardware this time.
Otherwise this song will be a year in the making...
🙌🙌🙌🙌
Totally new to mixing/mastering so this series has been super informative & helpful. So thank you Colin! Everything has been easy to follow and you explain everything well. I worked alongside this series on my own song and got to this final step, but my meters vary vastly and I'm not sure how/why. Without the limiters on the track in this session, MVMeter2 reads about -12, while the YouLean Loudness Meter reads -22 lufs. It seem like your readings were nearly the same, so I'm not sure what I should be aiming for here. If I try to get the lufs to around -14 or higher, the MVMeter2 gets too high for what you recommended. Got any tips?
2:31 a complete eye-opener for me.
Last 2 albums I got someone else to do it. This time. It’s. ME!! So yes I will try following your process.
Awesome!!
Where can I listen to this song? I've enjoyed the song so much while going through this series. And thanks for this series Colin. Great treasure.
Been recording on garageband for a while and never given mastering a go using this method. I've used the 'master track' that you can drop into the track, had a go an eq'ing etc that, is that any use? I'll defo be giving this process a try for my next tune. Thanks brother!
On your automation video, you recommended to place a limiter on the master track to increase loudness and to listen to the pre-master mix on different devices. Are you removing this limiter before you master it?
Thank you for the amazing mastering advice. I have an ep that the mixes are so loud (from an analog mixer using 2 inch tape converted to digital files) I can’t get a proper RMS meter reading unless I pull down the volume fader to -8db. The Lufs hover somewhere around -18. It is a heavier rock sounding album. Is this going to come across loud enough on all the platforms or is there another way to master it so the rms meter is correct, but the LUFS is between -14 to -10?
Thank you again for this great tutorial :-) Unfortunately, I cannot install BUSTERse in my Garageband on my imac27 - it says "supplier cannot be verified" and quits
Colin, can you use the Analog Obsession LALA in limiter mode for mastering instead of garageband’s limiter?
Can you please suggest an alternative to Buster SE? The download site states that Mac versions require a graphics card that supports METAL. Since. I have Catalina installed on a 2014 era iMac, I'm uncertain as to what I can do, as Buster SE will not show up in my list of plugins, and I've tried saving and closing the file. A good alternative would be appreciated, or a workaround.
I have been following your guide and in my mix my lufs meter I'm at -11.5 integrated but the RMS is reading at .4. is it too loud somewhere or do I ignore the RMS and focus on the lufs?
I tried to use the mvMeter2, looks great but in my mastering project I can mute the track and the meter doesn’t change. Thoughts?
Every time I get to the mastering stage my RMS appears to be too high and LUFS appears too low. In this video, it seems like you have similar readings for both RMS and LUFS. On the song I'm doing now, I'm reading a -0.2 RMS and -13.0 LUFS. I've just been prioritizing my LUFS meter when setting my limiter as it seems to be the more accurate one to my ear. Any advice on how to make a better mix so I don't see this problem in the future?
What do I do if the rms goes way pass that and how do I get it lower
My RMS is right where it needs to be but the loudness meter needs to come way up. Not sure what to do now
the song sounds like if Jimmy Eat World collaborated with Third eye Blind.
It’s still clipping when I turn it up max volume in my car. I recorded everything right, mixed along with the videos, and mastered with this video, but I can not get my song to stop clipping.
Colin, I downloaded Buster SE but it won't show up in my plugins. How do I get Buster SE to show up in my plugins?
My songs sound fine on the computer, the meters are around 12 LUFS, but when I play it in the car, it’s very low. Any suggestions on what I’m doing wrong?
Where can we find the finished product?
Perhaps its because my laptop is older, but I don't have a WAVE option. I only have AAC, MP3 and AIFF
I need you in person, I been recording tracks, bouncing them to the computer in wav files, I need help mastering in person..HELP!
Where can i find this song?
Hey, did I miss the name of that song you are playing?Who is the artist?
Any time I get my LUFS within range, the RF reading is way too high. Typically if I get the LUFS to -10 to -14, my RF is all the way up to 0. What am I doing wrong and how can I get both within range?
Got the same problem dude
when I installed these softwares, they are not there
I bought tippa my tongue of the red hot chili peppers, and it is not -1 😅 nothing is -1 but i don't know why Spotify ect tell us to make -1.... I cannot send you a screenshot of the wave form of tippa my tongue, but my analyzer says it is +0,5 , not -1 😅
I've been through the whole series with my song and finally exported the master - but the exported version is a lot more bright and trebly than the master in GB itself. I've ticked and unticked all the things recommended in this video, exported as highest quality MP3...any ideas?
Duh....apple music player has its own eq hidden in 'window' (and not 'settings' or 'controls' as would be logical). Reset that and am good to go. However, still not nearly as loud as a song on spotify - I wasn't able to add gain with the limiter at all without going over -9 RMS. Going to have to go back to the drawing board on that one.
Please tell me this song was released. It’s so good!
🙌🏼 Whoa thank you! Not yet- it's on the next full length album 😎
You should change the lyrics off being stuck, you are brainwashing yourself and will remain stuck.
The trouble with this video is that you have to listen to that good awful song constantly ;-)
Probably not the right channel for you then! :)
not all@@TheBandGuide ! Your vids are currently helping me with mastering some songs I have written, so thanks for that. I am on your mailing list too. I just had to suffer that song while i watched and learned form your techniques ;-)
Man that song gets tiresome...
Good video though.
