Mastering

After
mixing comes mastering where final eq and compression is applied to the 2mix.
For this record, we did most of our mastering with Leon Zervos at Sterling and
then did final assembly and some last minute tweaks with my good friend Dan
Shike of Tone and
Volume. In this picture he reminds me of Tank
from the matrix and I can almost hear him picking up the phone with "operator".
Dan has a pair of speakers that cost $18,000. His job is to listen to music
through those speakers all day. Not a bad day job. Dan helped design my studio
and he's an all around audio whiz. He looks tough but if you look carefully you
can see a carebear somewhere in this pic. Also he has 4 cats.
