As you become a little more confident, you might wish to begin to explore some of the other plug-ins that can be effectively applied to the Master Track if the mix requires it. Two general word of caution though.

  1. Don’t try to use the Master Track FX Chain to fix up errors in your basic mix. A muddy guitar, for example, should be fixed at source, not in the Master Track.

  2. The order in which you place your FX will make a difference. Experimenting with different orders can produce interesting results, but never place anything after your Master Limiter (except an analytical tool such as the Goniometer or a dithering plug-in if you are using one – this will be discussed shortly).
