Mastering, any tutorials?

[PurpleSunray]

On the quote from above?
Or was it purly speculative?

Seems we have different experience. I learned new stuff every single time I sent something for mastering. That little EQ push arround mid/ high sounds good, gonna do on my next mix. Bass turend out to be too loud after compression, will do less next time. That subtile saturation on lowend sounds good, what it is? Want that on my mix, ...

I just cannot follow the argumentation that you cannot learn anything to improve your mix by working with a good&experienced mastering engineer. Ofc you can.... or maybe it is only me All others semm to be smarter already than any mastering engineer can ever be

The message here is, learn to mix as best you can, if you want a really polished sound.

Yep, and all I'm trying to say: a mastering engineer can help you learning that - in disagreement with the "there is absolutly nothing you can learn from a mastering engineer"

Still don't understand what's your problem
What is my mistake?

Mastering will only get you that one or two percent extra for your track.
Composition is 50%, sounds 30%, mixing 18%, mastering 2%.
Hell, if your sounds are good, I would say mixing is even less.
I guess there is no harm in taking advice of an experienced mastering engineer.
Just put it in perspective.
All just IMO, of course.
