The term mastering comes from the idea of transferring the final mix from a source into a data storage device, aka the master, from which all following copies will be made and produced using methods like replication, duplication, or pressing. Usually, mastering is done by using a variety of tools, such as limiting, dynamic range compression, equalization or stereo widening, and other stereo enhancement. The goal of mastering is to add a final touch and polish the audio’s sound in order to convert the final mix into a ready-to-go release that the listeners can enjoy and experience in high quality on all possible devices - from dance club sound systems to home stereo sound systems to smartphones. Mastering is the final stage of audio post-production and can be defined as the process of balancing and harmonizing various sonic elements of a stereo mix and optimizing its sound across all media formats.
