Step 4: Mixdown and mastering
“Mixdown” refers to the process of applying insert effects,
master effects, and EQ to the recorded tracks, adjusting the
overall balance, and then combining everything into a two-
track stereo mix.
Once you have mixed-down a song, you can apply a final ef-
fect and EQ to add compression and adjust the overall tone
to create a finished master; this process is called “master-
ing.”
On the D32XD/D16XD, you can perform the mastering and
the stereo mix-down at the same time.
