Feel free to break anything in the shop!
Make sure to set use_git: 1 in your namarc. That will
give you step-by-step snapshots of the history of your
project.
I've made this a default for new installations.
I also am afraid I need to ask for either peoples help or pointers to
documentation that can explain exactly the uses/thinking behind
mastering mode and mixdown mode.
Mixing is the process of adjusting various tracks' settings to
your liking, and then recording the (usually stereo) output.
Mastering is a mysterious process. Among its purported
achievements include taking a finished mix, and magically
modifying it to sound good on many different kinds of audio
players, from car stereos, to headphones, cell phones, home
stereos, small portable CD players, etc.
There may be other benefits to mastering, Jeanette has more
experience than I do in this.
I've heard it said that whatever you might want to do in
mastering, you can also do via effects processing during
mixing. Someone once said that the mastering is looking
at the mix from a greater distance.
For your purposes, Kirk, I think you would start with
regular mixing, and see what you come up with. Use
the mixdown command when you are ready to record
it to disk.
Mastering is a mode you turn on and off.
There are some useful effects in the mastering network
that would be something to play with after getting
comfortable with the basics of mixing.
In mastering mode, you use the mixdown command in the usual
way, and generate a recorded file in the usual way.
The only difference is some there are some additional tracks and
effects in the audio processing network. The effects are set
up to produce a sound close to the original source.
You'll have to study about each of the plugins separately,
make experiments and ask questions.
Thats my recommendation, if you want to follow the path of
virtue.
cheers,
