Whoops - There is a typo at 5:46 - 5:55 it's actually Master B (the blue WAV file is Master B)

That “nah I’m just joking” was hilarious! The video is playing in my truck, which has really nice souped up speakers. The bass / and low end bumps, probably a little too much to be a fair judge of what will sound best on most speakers. Master B and master D both made the kick drum slam super hard which definitely had a nice appeal. Both of those masters sounded more exciting than C to me. Master C sort of flatlined the drama. Either way, great song and you have an excellent voice! Nice job and thanks for the content man.

Such a cool vid man! Thanks for testing for us!

[skirmantasstankevicius]

Really great comparison. I agree with you. For me, Master C was the best overall. But to be truly honest, I was actually satisfied just with... an unmastered mix. I think you did a phenomenal job with it. Sounds just right and could have been released without mastering.

Dude just posting to say kwwp up the good work. Only discovered a vid from you yesterday. Now following and going through your older stuff, top work fella.

[pelennorDSP]

I would have actually picked C as the pro master, and D as Ozone like yourself. I also liked C the best, goes to show Ozone has a solid reputation for a reason.

This is SO interssting. I'm front man in a rockband, and we're just tracking our debut EP - it should be mixed later this) month, and since none of us have ever been in a mastering process before (we're aiming at Spotify and Apple Music, plus potentially vinyl, I'm really listening now. Would you say that we migth as well use AI?

[Freedomstudio]

I've actually used Waves mastering recently and was very satisfied with the results.

[edwardkenemorales]

Great video mate! Just curious, if I may ask if you offer mix critiques as one your services?

[BigHugeYES]

Id like to see a comparison like this that uses Strealiner or similar to simulate the way the track will sound on streaming services, esp Spotify.

[masterchannelai]

Would be interesting putting us to the test as well 🙏

[stevewallek]

Would be great to hear your thoughts on the mastering plugin in logic.

[SteelTracks]

The Logic Pro mastering is really great!! You should check it out. Just curious, what did it cost to have it mastered by an engineer?

[BottleneckMoses]

Great vid, thanks! Do you happen to remember which genre the Ozone assistant defaulted to, and did you leave it as it suggested (e.g. pop, rock).

[DrProgNerd]

I liked Master D and Master C the best - with the edge going to Master D. I liked the detail and space in D but it missed a little something in the low mids. C definitely felt warmer but maybe too much so - I missed that detail. If you took the warmth of C and married it with the detail of D, that would be perfect for me. As soon as B played, it was an immediate 'no' - too nasally. Liked the detail in A - but too much 'air' - it was just out of balance. If they pulled that 8k'ish area down a bit, it could have been my favorite. This was a cool video. Thanks, Rhys.

wait wait wait, what actual ozone plugin is this and for landr as well, i wish you could make a follow up video on what exactly to choose

[brownsnakestudios]

LANDR I have tried… like ten years ago, does Logic have a AI now. Ozone 9 I use to gauge to mastering level sometimes…

[tayfunozisik]

I think your mix sounds better than any of those masters

[philipleblanc]

I liked a and d but im not bias because i didnt mix it the mix by the way was amazing to begin with but the point of mastering is to get that extra that didnt get achieved in mixing so i would want my master to clearly have the extra air and extra low end pop and extra clarity so chosing c wouldnt satisfy my spending the cash to get something extra and final only to have it so close to the original mix that i wasnt satisfied but im just a nit picky complaining artist so my opinions dont really translate lol for real though the mix was as solid as it gets

[PixelWorldVR]

Hey man I want this song on my Spotify playlist! Where can I hear it at. I like it!
