This particular mastering session was a great example of how to boost the high-end to improve the clarity of the sound. This is a dangerous area, as too much boosting can lead to a harsh sound, BUT you also don’t want to be afraid of doing what’s needed in the production. This was a particular challenge in this song as the ‘esses’ in the vocal were quite prominent, so a mixture of dynamic EQ attenuation in the ‘ess’ frequency range and transparent boosting in the high-end was needed. Hopefully, you’ll uncover some techniques that you can use in your own productions to get your mixes sounding great.
