to MIX or
Not To MIX?

Audio Mixing is the process of taking recorded tracks and blending them together. The goal of Mixing is to bring out the best in your multi-track recording by adjusting levels, panning, and time-based effects (chorus, reverb, delay, etc) The aim is to sculpt your arrangement to make sense of all your tracks in relation to each other.

YES! - the MIX is the

Blending of all the individual tracks in a recording that create the cleanest version of a song, a necessity for Radio Play. 

—  ProTools Team 

What is a Master?

Mastering  smoothes out the wrinkles of your final mix.

Using a combination of tools like compression, EQ, limiting, stereo enhancement plus other tricks like aural excitation – mastering is the glue that makes your music presentable to the world.
