I consider mastering a whole different game. It doesn't come with

knowledge, but with knowledge and more experience, and a facility

worth more than I can earn in a year. You've got to have at least 2

different rooms and a car stereo, not to mention a number of different

monitors and speakers ranging from $10 to $1000++.
So most of us actually do submasters, or leave it up to someone who

has been mastering for the last 20 years (more than $500).
And the best part is, for really good mixes, the only thing to master

would be the level, so the engineer just inserts one of those

plug-ins, pushes the fader up, and tells you it's done. First-hand

experience.
