  1. Prepare Your Mix
    Balance levels, use EQ and compression, and leave -6dB to -3dB headroom.
  2. Select Tools
    Use EQ (balance), compression (dynamics), limiter (loudness), stereo widener (space), and harmonic enhancers (warmth).
  3. Set Up Chain
    Typical order: EQ → Compression → Stereo Widener → Harmonic Enhancer → Limiter.
  4. Apply Tools
    Adjust frequencies, dynamics, width, and harmonics carefully. Avoid overprocessing.
  5. A/B Test
    Compare original and mastered versions for clarity, dynamics, and balance.
  6. Export
    Save as a 16-bit, 44.1kHz WAV with metadata.

Conclusion
Mastering adds polish to your track. Refine through testing for pro results.
