im seeing comments that are like "pffttt REAL mastering engineers do way more but im listening to this and the regular person listening to your music isnt going to give a shit. youre song is either fire or it isnt. this mastering chain right here is good enough for me.

Thanks for the vid, It was a tremendous help. Wish the pusher could squash stereo field as well as add. There are a lot of haters of that plugin so i was happy to see how you use it with such great results. Cheers from AZ

This is a gem of a video. Thank you for this informative tutorial, Sean! :)

@Sean Devine, great video. I am a producer and usually do a pretty tight mix on my beats and then hand them off to get polished. But I've been wanting to learn how to Master not having analog gear and I've viewed a ton of videos over the past 2 weeks and yours by far as been the most direct, clean and very insightful. Cannot wait to try this on some mixes that I am getting ready to send to one of my artists. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I'm off to check out your other video on Loudness and how to make sure my songs are really polished.

Never thought of implementing a compressed mono signal via bus within the stereo mix; I will have to try this out. Super rad tutorial brutha!

Thank you so much for showing this, I also watched the vocals video too. You get straight to the point, and I understood everything.

The track I just mixed I thought it couldn't sound any better .. then here I am trying everything you taught me in 5 mins, genius my song sounds 10x better!

The Puigtec is an absolute monster. I've used it on every mix I've done since I've got it.
