What can I do to get some life into it? Welcome to the (very important) world of mastering! In the last days there was some big discussion about compression on this mailing list. You should read that thread... You should look at jamin, which is a mastering suite for jack. I don't know if jamin can be interconnected with audacity, but with ardour I would propose the following: 1. Import all your songs into one ardour-session. 2. Connect jamin as an insert-effect on the master-track. 3. Work your way through mastering... (takes the longest time) 4. Export the whole session from ardour. This gives you a big wave-file and if you choose to do so (and added the track-markers) a toc-file ready for burning your audio to a cd right away. 5. Listen to this cd on as many different system you can get hold of. 6. Repeat steps 3 to 5 as long as you want/need. 7. Sell lots of cds and make lots of money. (Depending on if your cd contains the next number one hit :-) Have a nice sunday, Arnold -- visit http://www.arnoldarts.de/ --- Hi, I am a .signature virus.
