Who Am I :
I'm Streaky, a professional engineer from the UK. I make videos sharing what I've learned over 30 years of engineering.
I've worked at major London studios including Metropolis and Battery, and my credits include UK number-one singles from Lily Allen, Shanks & Bigfoot and Chipmunk, plus work with Paul Weller, Skepta, Groove Armada, Kasabian, Krept & Konan, Taio Cruz, JME, Giggs, Naughty Boy and The Manor.
Whats in the video :
Mastering music correctly is essential for professional sound. Avoid common beginner mistakes to ensure your tracks achieve optimal loudness and clarity.
This guide focuses on the technical errors that prevent your audio mastering from translating well across different playback systems. With thirty years of experience, we examine how excessive sub bass issues can muddy your mix and physically limit your overall volume potential. Understanding these fundamental problems helps you fix your bottom end before you even touch a limiter.
We also walk through specific mastering plugins and the settings required to achieve a balanced, commercial-ready sound. By adjusting these parameters properly, you improve speaker translation and get your masters to sit correctly in a professional listening environment.
