Heh... Heeeeeeeh..... That's some nice Jazz :) For mastering, you could use Rezound or Audacity. Both support the so-called LADSPA plugins, which are the standard tools for linux audio processing right now. I would: * Normalize (for the volume) * Equalize (for the brightness, e.g. with the 'Multiband EQ') * and perhaps add a tiny bit of compression to make the sound fuller. (e.g. with the 'SCO1') Carlo Atte André Jensen schrieb: > Hi > > I have the following track: > > http://www.atte.dk/at_slum_avenue.ogg > > It's a recording of one of my tunes with my jazz quartet.
