Know Your Audience, Master Accordingly
The main thing to keep in mind is the final application of your CD. Is it a demo? Is it a pitch for a record label? Is it a final product you plan to sell at your concerts? Demos and record label pitches can usually get by with some free mastering available. But if you plan to sell the CD on the road or even get it played on the radio. You MUST have the CD professionally mastered. The buying public have been conditioned by the record industry to know when they hear a good product. This is what you’re up against so do it right, GET YOUR CD MASTERED. It will be the difference between your average at home CD project and professional projects by serious artists.
