We’ve all heard it - “the music is in the mid-range”. But what does that mean, exactly ? And if it’s true, is there anything we can do about it in mastering ?

We’ve talked about bass and high frequencies, but in this show we dive into the muddy, murky mess that is (often) the mid-range, and talk about how crucial it is for a great-sounding master.

Including:

* How the mids help us hear bass

* Common problems with the mid-range, and what causes them

* How to open up cluttered mids in mastering

* Our least favourite mid-range frequencies

* Mids versus dynamics

* The importance of linear phase EQ for the mids
