What is Mastering Tool Kit?
When creating an audio CD from your recorded songs,
or recording to a similar media, the overall volume
needs to be restrained, so that even the loudest portions
of the songs are handled appropriately on the CD.
However, this often results in an overall lowering of the
volume, resulting in a CD that lacks excitement and
impact.
Moreover, in the low-frequency range, to which the
human ear is not very sensitive, the sound actually
produced might be perceived as being somewhat low in
volume, even though the meter shows that it’s at the
maximum level. This also makes it difficult to create
powerful sounds.
With the “Mastering Tool Kit,” however, you can
smooth out the differences in volume that occur over
the course of a song, while also correcting the balance in
the low end.
We recommend mastering with the Mastering Tool Kit
in the final stage of creating songs.
* The Mastering Tool Kit features 19 pre-programmed
“Preset Patches” (P01–P19), 19 rewritable “User
Patches” (U01–U19), and 19 “Song Patches,” which
are stored individually for each song (S01–S19).
