[QUOTE="ilovepiano, post: 762951, member: 528"] Easy things you can do to make it sound better: Turn the gain down a bit on the bassline. It's overpowering everything else. Same with wooshey sounds, they seem a tad loud and distracting Turn up your drums a bit. Kick especially. You won't be able to do that if you've used a loop though. If that's the case, add another track with an isolated kick drum to fatten it up a bit. Piano sounds a bit muddy and muddled. You could try adding a stereo ping-pong-type delay to give it a bit of width. Also try rolling off bottom end with the eq a bit. Doing stuff like that will deffo improve the mix. Mastering though, like Rick said, isn't a skill that is easy to grasp. The mastering process is applied to the whole mix - kind of like a final spit 'n polish. Hope that helps :thumbsup: [/QUOTE]
