Mastering Question - 02/09/16 07:03 PM
Hi,
First of all I've been out of the loop for years now. Lately I've been putting together songs in my ipad using StageTraxx which solo performers use a lot.
For convenience if I find a song on Karoke-Version that I can use, I grab one of those and call it the day. Otherwise I started using BIAB again to put together songs.
My issue is when I load the songs into my ipad the BIAB songs are about 3 to 4 db lower in volume. So switching between songs is going to be too much volume adjusting for a live situation.
My first thought for the quickest remedy would be to lower the volume in the Karoke Version songs and render but they are already compressed to high heaven and mp3's when I get them so the fidelity is going to take a hit if I do that.
Is there a way to master the BIAB songs when I render. By the way I'm still on 10.5 and it looks like the only way to render is mixdown to CD setting..which I save it as .wav
I have Audacity set up, Reaper but that just comes with your basic VST (I think) whatever you get for $60 and I have Studio One that came with interface box. It has some mastering eff but I was hoping I could do everything in BIAB.
Thank on any tips!
