I'm about to master a double vinyl album for a local band. Pretty normal music. I've tried searching, and found some good tips, but I thought I might as well ask here too... Most of the songs (it's a "best of"-album) have been kind of mastered for cd's, and I have just a few songs in the un-mastered state. They're stretching the albums sides a bit, they will be approx 21, 22, 22 and 22 minutes long. Will there be a big difference compared to "under 20 min"-sides?
What's a good peak/RMS level for vinyl? a bit lower than for CD's?
What about bass response? Is it more important to keep the bass down when mastering for vinyl?
Also read somewhere that it's more important to keep sibilance down?
Anything else regarding treble?
Anything else? (No, I don't mind people telling me how to do my job )
I plan on using Sonoris LP EQ and Levelizer, great tools! Also have Sonoris MB Compressor if needed.
Thanks in advance!
