There's really no such thing as mastering one song.
Another trick I learned when it comes to seeing how your mix is. Pull out the old vacuum cleaner and start cleaning your mix room.Then see if you can hear the tune evenly with all the noise going. Start turning the song down and see if you start losing stuff.Sounds ridiculous I know but give it a try.The wife will be happy as well.



Thanks a lot John for your reply, I thought it was was possible to master just one standalone song, surely single releases are mastered.

Thanks for that tip about the vacuum, must try it. Unfortunately I don't have a studio room due to lack of space, the spealers are sitting behind my 22 inch LG monitor, and I mean directly behind it.

receipe for disaster I know as regards having a good mixdown.
