Getting The Most Out Of Aria Mastering

[@drubarrow]

thought i'd post this to help with those looking for more advice or guidance. We are a metal band with loud tracks, lots of distortion and effects. I originally picked setting B as I wanted more punch and it being a little louder but we found it was clipping tracks suddenly and changed some of the tone we didn't want changed. We then tried C but everything was popping and distorted even after dropping output levels. We are now trying A, which is safer and find its more what we are looking for. It just balanced the tone more and kept it not over powering. I may try D with the 5 remasters per track you get but I think we are finding the sound balance we are looking for. To clarify for anyone who may get confused, when you master a track and want to remaster it, click remaster and you're given a few dial options. Pick setting A-E to hear other ones but you do not need to adjust low-hi freqs, width and level output unless you want to add that customization. If B is your sound but a little loud, drop the output one and leave the rest. Or raise low-freq for more bottom end. Good luck! cool service for those "mastering" on a budget.

Aria is my goto Mastering Solution! Perfect sound Everytime! In fact I let a professional mastering engineer master a song and then I also let Aria do it. In A / B comparison most of the listeners liked the Aria sound better!

I have been a few weeks checking your mastering services with different tracks and I am very surprised about the sound you give me back, I was a bit skeptical after trying other automated mastering webs but so far I must admit that Aria sounds quite impressing, Congrats from Madrid, Spain.

What would you recommend for a hip hop Spotify master where it needs to hit around -14 on the lufs meter? Thanks :)

B setting is for my type of music

what I don't get about Aria is does it even listen to the source material or does it just do some preset? Because I sent in a mix that was already pretty bass heavy and a bit muffled and got back a master that was even more bass heavy and still a bit muffled. I tried -2 bass +2 treble and it's not noticeably different.

[@ritzenhauf]

So, this is analog gear via a few presets, and other services are digital but adaptive?

[@ariamastering2287]

no, wrong again. Aria adjusts to the needs of the song. Why do you think there is a robot to turn knobs?

[@beingwithyou1111]

Would you say D is just A plus X db then...so if I'm doing A +1 loudness is that basically D?

[@ariamastering2287]

D is basically the safer B

[@Geffimusic]

Very cool, going to give it a try

[@buscadordesuenos9808]

What configuration would you recommend for a new wave song?

[@ivekcynno5113]

Kindly list out aria payment methods for me!

[@crrtis]

Ten dollars per mix, or hey have monthly options but they’re pricey (for me).

[@shliggyb]

great vid thank you!

[@kensmechanicalaffair]

A cool option for an expansion idea, is picking your own limiters and compressor.

[@crrtis]

There’s a company you can do that with.

[@kensmechanicalaffair]

@@crrtis What company is that?

[@crrtis]

@@kensmechanicalaffair it’s called Access Analog I believe. I haven’t tried it out yet, but I like the concept better than Aria.

Will Aria save all your Masters on your account?

[@drubarrow]

From what I've gathered as long as you pay your subscription it will keep your tracks and everytime you re-master it actually keeps all takes in the project. It is easy to batch save all tracks before you try re-mastering.

[@tobytodelafontena]

Very expensive solution for having a master on which no human engineer ever put his ears.

[@kensmechanicalaffair]

And that's fine.
