When it comes to Audio production, mixing is so critical. But even after the mixing process there's one more step that can truly bring your audio to the next level of quality. Mastering. Mastering is the process of essentially throwing effects on the whole mix. So, a compressor in mastering would compress everything, instead of an individual track.

This brings a different color and feel to the overall mix of your audio. And yes this is critical with music, but more uncommon with video audio. I would argue that your video mix will stand out if you take some intentional time to master your video mix. Compression, EQ, and Limiting will do the trick and truly be a light shining for the AudioGospel. Go forth and master my friends.

I've been teaching myself audio production for the past 3 or 4 years but mastering has always been an elusive concept to me. I'm about a minute and 20 seconds in and you've just made me understand exactly what mastering is. Kudos, my man
