Hi
Never stop learning
I have just found out that Soundcloud automatically convert your wave file to a 128kbps Mp3 file which in my view is not fantastic quality.
Having Ozone i am trying to correct the sound by looking at the tonal balance etc
If i put a wave file in ozone to master it, i convert it now to Mp3 128 as that is the streaming quality of Soundcloud.
When putting a wave file into Soundcloud and auto compressed it leaves a load of garbage in the background, but if i convert it and use the limiter in the same way you gain a better recording and better volume level.
So It seems to have quality you have to juggle your finished song to their LUF sound levels for different sites.
If making your song ultimate the best that you can , master to CD quality.
How many know of this???
All the best
