Audio Mastering With Traktor Pro by Dreaml4nd

How to do audio mastering with Native Instruments Traktor Pro and a DAW (Ableton Live in this case).

Traktor Pro can be used as another tool in your home mastering process to compare your track to reference tracks and bring your mastering chain into a DJ mixing context.

This is not a replacement for a professional mastering process. It is an addition to workflow for doing a simple home mastering with tools that most beginner and intermediate musicians understand and can use.

Unmastered track used in demonstration is Dreaml4nd – Unstable Reality
Reference track used in demonstration is Killerwatts – Fractals (Killerwatts = Tristan + Avalon)
