Now and again, I get asked by artists to make sure what I'm mastering sounds loud on spotify post normalisation... Which usually gets responded to accordingly (not going to rant about it here ha) but to satisfy some artists, I present them a version of their usual master which, after normalisation, will perceivably sound a bit louder. Often though it comes at a compromise compared to the "normal master" I've offered (could be less low end, quieter, more high mids... Whatever) Obviously from an artist perspective, there are benefits to having a louder normalised master - will stick out more on playlists etc which could benefit more plays, more deep dives on other tracks etc. from a producer side, it means more royalties, potentially more notice etc So my question is, what is your preference?…
