Beginner question related to mastering


General Producer Chat

Thanks, that helps, so in ozone i just use the singer songwriter styled preset. Do you suggest, i reduce the volume there? If I do reduce the volume, wont it affect the volume in the format. For example, when you start ozone, it asks which format do you want, options are - streaming, CD, etc. I choose streaming and then go for the AI automation in it. If I reduce the volume from that level, wont it be "off" based on the format?

A follow up to that - 1) if you notice, my ozone 9 is on st out, not on mastering strip. I cannot put anything on mastering strip, theres no option to.

2) Even when i have only one ozone, the sound till goes in the "loudness" red and bleeds.

3) From what you are saying, I am understanding, st out is the mastering channel. and when i add new audio tracks, they automatically go to st out, and then on st out i can add ozone and it will be good to go? 

Please correct me if I am wrong?

Beginner question related to mastering


General Producer Chat

Tearing off as in what happens when it gets too loud that the song "bleeds", I am a beginner-level producer so dont know what will be the right word for it, i hope you get what I mean, like when the volume goes red or too loud, that the song sounds torn or not so stereo quality. If you see my screen rec, do you think I am doing any mistakes, what will be the corrections on that?

Beginner question related to mastering


General Producer Chat

Guys, can you tell me what am I doing wrong - When I add ozone to the mix, my sound tears off, but in videos and demos, i see them not having this issue?

Here's how the channel strips look like, recorded a short screen recording  - https://share.getcloudapp.com/YEueoKOP

so, this song is basically me singing with a guitar with 1 mic recording both (input 1), i then added harmonies in the chorus by spliting the track and adding harmonie twice in 2 choruses in my song, so a total of 4 tracks as input 1, 

I am bussing them and sending them to bus 2 and then adding ozone there, it tore the sound. then it created a new channel automatically called stereo out and i added ozone there too, it didnt change the sound.

Can you tell me what exactly am i doing wrong, and where exactly should i place my ozone mastering plugin? which strip? there is a mastering strip created too but i cant put anything there, logic isnt letting me.
I am a beginner, so this would be very helpful to know.

Beginner question about mastering using Ozone


DAW or Software Questions

Question about mastering - please see this https://share.getcloudapp.com/wbuvzyze

1) Here, I have several tracks with output to bus2, in bus 2, I add ozone 9 for mastering, am I doing it right?

2) If yes, why should my master strip remain empty?

3) Do I need the strip on extreme right? Am a bit confused with this.

4) When I do apply Ozone 9, the sound comes torn and distorted, as I suspect it increases the volume. Anyway to optimize it for streaming without tearing the sound 

5) Can you show me a simple barebones example of a master bus channel?

Logic pro beginner question about track editing


DAW or Software Questions

Hi guys,

Let's say I record a track, and after editing it looks like this with big gaps in between -

https://share.getcloudapp.com/E0uRg7lo

1)How do I club them all together and remove all the gaps in between, without manually dragging each section together?

2) How do I export every track individually as an mp3?

3) How do I export the whole track with every section included as an mp3? I tried to bounce but it exports only one section.
