Logic's Mastering Assistant in 4 minutes.

Today we are going to take a quick listen to Logic's Mastering Assistant. This plugin is quickly becoming one of my favorite reasons to use Logic for my productions. Apple keeps it simple with just a few adjustment parameters but listen for yourself just how much of a difference it makes!

Glad to see you back on it man! nothin wrong with breaks when needed

[@forestwhitehead]

You right. We back! Thanks for coming back to watch the videos!

[@planeguy95]

Apple and Logic just doesn't cease to blow me away

[@jesseniebolt]

Best demo I saw of this. I stumbled across the Mastering Assistant tonight & went to UA-cam for validation on how I felt it working. Thanks Forest!

[@toddcollins6746]

Agree this thing is awesome. Like you said, not the only move you need to make but an amazing starting point pretty quick!

[@blindmelonstubbly]

It definitely works. Wish I had this tool a few months ago 😂

[@michaelsnydermusic]

Time for a remastered release! 😆

[@MarkLantz65]

I just recently bought a Mac Mini and bought Logic Pro. I would love to see more about Logic. I have also kept my S1 subscription. I never thought I would get a Mac but man it is powerful! Do you think Logic or S1 has more power as a DAW?

[@forestwhitehead]

This is a great question that I will do a full video on for you. Great idea!

[@mjk5254]

I’m gonna comment on everything you put it out brother. Let’s kick you back into algorithm high gear lol

[@forestwhitehead]

Ill be looking for your comments!

[@brazyTALLyungen]

Awesome tutorial. I have a question. When I use Logic, one project will have the instrumental plus all the vocal tracks (lead and background). Would you suggest using the Mastering Assistant on that? Or bounce it out (at a low volume so it doesn't clip), create a new project, and master the entire track as a whole that way?

[@FbodzRyuji]

My is the latest logic but i dont have such feature. Where do you find it?? Where is it located?

[@hottamaletallahassee]

big thanks!! this is the fourth video i've watched about Mastering Assistant, and the first time i "got it." Thanks for making a video that is clear, direct, simple to understand.

[@youtubewatcher2006]

I think this is a great step forward but comparing Logic's mastering assistant with Ozone or LANDR, I found it to be very lacking. I did a blind test with one song and the 3 masters of each plugin and Logic was far behind the others. Its the first version of the plugin though, so expect it get a lot better with the next update.

[@GalvinPatrick]

I’m having problems with exporting tracks while the mastering assistant turned on. The output audio sounds cracking. When turned off, the exported audio sounds normal. I’m using the M3 Pro btw.

[@ameeththomas]

Good to see you back :)..... Waiting and hoping for a new sample pack this year

[@forestwhitehead]

Oh I got a good one coming!

[@keithdo2551]

Great video

[@TheWeazel01]

I get why you could use these type of processors, but what's the fun of all these automated plugins?

[@forestwhitehead]

For me it makes my song sound better faster than me fiddling with different plugins. I want the fastest path to get a good sound so I can put my focus on the song itself as opposed to the mix. To each their own!

[@TheWeazel01]

@@forestwhitehead I understand. I was talking more from a mix engineer's perspective, maybe should have mentioned that.

[@aisonikamusic]

I know what you mean, but relative to the songwriting, musicianship, recording and mixing, I just want my tracks to sonically sound as awesome as possible as easily as I can.

[@aisonikamusic]

One thing, get the track to be around -8 LUFS as you can for streaming.

[@OfficialWEIRD]

Appreciate you making this vid!

[@spiv05]

what are your headphones mate?

[@ZentrixBeats]

i dont know why, but your thumsnail looks like a child hehe =)
good Video

[@forestwhitehead]

It does! Need to change it haha.

[@forestwhitehead]

Changed it for ya! haha

[@aisonikamusic]

Thanks Forest! Awesome video. Life saver of a plugin.

[@talunt]

Good to see you back brotha

[@TheChocDonk2000]

So good to see you back!

[@Hammerman48]

I’ve used the Mastering Assistant a few times on mixes and I love it.

[@Nikkie_jurnigan]

[@forestwhitehead]

I’m sorry I just do not like protools at all.
