    Whoops - There is a typo at 5:46 - 5:55 it's actually Master B (the blue WAV file is Master B)

    This is SO interssting. I'm front man in a rockband, and we're just tracking our debut EP - it should be mixed later this) month, and since none of us have ever been in a mastering process before (we're aiming at Spotify and Apple Music, plus potentially vinyl, I'm really listening now. Would you say that we migth as well use AI?

    • @spinlightstudios
      @spinlightstudios  9 месяцев назад +3

      I would generally say use a mastering engineer if you’re serious about the tracks, AI is definitely interesting - and ultimately human or computer can be good or bad… at least with a human if you want them to adjust something you can put a request in to revise it and they’ll be able to understand what you want haha I’m not sure about AI mastering and vinyl, usually you need a separate master for vinyl I believe with a few parameters optimized for it.
      I you could definitely try AI 🤷‍♂️

    Really great comparison. I agree with you. For me, Master C was the best overall. But to be truly honest, I was actually satisfied just with... an unmastered mix. I think you did a phenomenal job with it. Sounds just right and could have been released without mastering.

  • @pelennorDSP

    I would have actually picked C as the pro master, and D as Ozone like yourself. I also liked C the best, goes to show Ozone has a solid reputation for a reason.

    • @spinlightstudios
      @spinlightstudios  9 месяцев назад +2

      Master A had that hardware/tube kinda sound to it, but just a bit over hyped! Ozone is pretty decent!

    That “nah I’m just joking” was hilarious! The video is playing in my truck, which has really nice souped up speakers. The bass / and low end bumps, probably a little too much to be a fair judge of what will sound best on most speakers. Master B and master D both made the kick drum slam super hard which definitely had a nice appeal. Both of those masters sounded more exciting than C to me. Master C sort of flatlined the drama. Either way, great song and you have an excellent voice! Nice job and thanks for the content man.

      Haha thanks man, I always hate it when you watch blind tests and they never reveal the answers 😆 I get what your saying! I did like how master D added that extra excitement too. Glad you enjoyed the song too!

    I liked Master D and Master C the best - with the edge going to Master D. I liked the detail and space in D but it missed a little something in the low mids. C definitely felt warmer but maybe too much so - I missed that detail. If you took the warmth of C and married it with the detail of D, that would be perfect for me. As soon as B played, it was an immediate 'no' - too nasally. Liked the detail in A - but too much 'air' - it was just out of balance. If they pulled that 8k'ish area down a bit, it could have been my favorite. This was a cool video. Thanks, Rhys.

    • @spinlightstudios
      @spinlightstudios  9 месяцев назад +1

      It’s always hard to come to a conclusion with so many options haha but I agree listening again later, D has a nice appeal to it! A middle ground of C & D would be a winner for sure!

    @philipleblanc62 8 дней назад

    I liked a and d but im not bias because i didnt mix it the mix by the way was amazing to begin with but the point of mastering is to get that extra that didnt get achieved in mixing so i would want my master to clearly have the extra air and extra low end pop and extra clarity so chosing c wouldnt satisfy my spending the cash to get something extra and final only to have it so close to the original mix that i wasnt satisfied but im just a nit picky complaining artist so my opinions dont really translate lol for real though the mix was as solid as it gets

  • @vidworxsfx
    @vidworxsfx 9 месяцев назад +1

    I think your mix is too well done for the test, LOL it sounds really good without any mastering and I feel most will be uploading a mix to these AI sites that is not in the same class as your mixes, so in that case I feel a human mastering engineer will make better choices then an AI ever can that's my opin. I listend on 2 dif sets of monitors and to my ears Master B sounds more compressed and I never like masters that have an over compressed tone as so many today have. You mix is def more open sounding and only needs some very slight tweaks. I liked the detail of A best but also liked C and D I am going to go with D as I really like the slightly added bottom end punch while maintaining definition that one gets from a nice mastering EQ. Just wanted to add my 2 cents. Now that I see the answer I am impressed with what the AI could do in some cases, but still would prefer having a human mastering engineer.
