Manage episode 435312416 series 1452209
Ian Shepherd is a British mastering engineer and MD at Mastering Media Ltd. Over the course of his career he has worked on thousands of CDs, DVDs and Blu-rays for all of the major record labels, TV stations and independents, including several number one singles and award-winning albums. He also runs the popular Production Advice website, and hosts The Mastering Show podcast.
He is a fierce critic of the so-called Loudness Wars, and in 2010 founded Dynamic Range Day, an online event intended to raise awareness of the issue.
He has developed several acclaimed mastering plugins with MeterPlugs: Perception AB, which received an AudioMedia Gear Of The Year Award; Dynameter which helps users achieve optimal audio dynamics for their music and the Loudness Penalty website, plugin and Studio desktop application.

- How to find a good balance of loudness and volume
- What to focus on in order to create consistency between tracks on an album
- Keeping perspective and objectivity when mastering your own music
- What does “translation” really mean? What you need to be listening for
- Making “one master to rule them all”: How does this account for various listening scenarios (eg. non-normalized streaming and/or clubs)?
