Mixing and mastering with Cubase - Matthew Loel T Hepworth

Cubase provides the user with many more tracks than bands from the '60s
'70s
and '80s ever had at their disposal. Many iconic records were produced on 2-
3-
and 4-track recorders
whereas the track count of Cubase 6 is limited only by the power of the host computer. After the tracks have been recorded
they must be mixed and mastered to sound polished and professional. But for the new user
the processes of editing
adding effects

and mastering can be challenging.Mixing and Mastering with Cubase was written with the new user in mind. It starts by teaching you how to manipulate all the tracks and events in the Cubase Event Window. You'll learn how to use volume and pan controls to create depth and audibility
add EQ to help every track sit in the mix
and add effects such as compression and reverb to produce smooth and polished results. Finally

and loud mix that will compete with the pros. In the end
you might know the project was mixed and mastered in your home
but no one else has to. Cubase has been used to create countless hit records. With what you learn in this book and a little luck and hard work
yours could certainly be next.
