Page 30 highlights

Tutorial-Practice, Practice ... Step 3: Write the Song to a CD-R Disk This procedure is described in detail in the AW4416 operation guide (page 255), so we won't go into it here. But now you know how the entire process works - from the basic tracks to CD. Practice, Practice ... Really. Mixing and mastering are skills which, like playing an instrument, can only be acquired through practice. You have the tools (the AW4416 is about the coolest little mixing and mastering toolkit you can lay your hands on), now it's up to you to learn how to use them like a pro. Don't be afraid to go back and change things. Even if you've gone right through the process and mastered a CD, if it doesn't sound right when you play it back on CD player, by all means go back and make the necessary changes. That's how we learn. As you gain experience and skill the need to backtrack and redo things will decrease, and you'll make better mixes more quickly and easily. Happy mixing! 30 - Tutorial
