But what happens when the mastering engineer/ producer/artists decides that a change is required?... It's back to the (re)mix! Not everything can be fixed in mastering... If the vocals are too loud or have too much reverb etc... You can do general EQ nd overall dynamic fixes, levels etc... But if a particular track is causing a problem... -- Phil Leigh You want to see the signal path BEFORE it gets onto a CD/vinyl...it ain't what you'd call minimal...
