Step 4: Mixdown and mastering
“Mixdown” refers to the process of mixing all the individual
tracks together to create a stereo mix of your song. In addition
to adjusting the pan and level of each track’s playback, during
mixdown you can also apply insert effects to individual
tracks, add master effects, and adjust the EQ settings of the re-
corded tracks.
After you’ve mixed-down your song, the next step is to use
the master EQ and the final effect to enhance the overall tone
and dynamic character of your song to create a finished mas-
ter; this process is called “mastering.”
On the D3200, you can perform mixing and mastering at the
same time.
