The main objective is to optimize the sound for playback on any system and ensure that it meets industry standards to compete in the market.The term comes from "master" (original), since the result is the final, definitive audio from which all copies will be obtained.Loudness: Bringing the volume level (loudness) to the standards required by streaming platforms (Spotify, Apple Music) or physical formats. This is achieved mainly with the Limiter.Balance and Spectral Coherence: Ensure a proper balance between bass, mid and treble, enhancing the best of the mix and subtly correcting any frequency issues (using Equalization).Homogeneity: If mastering an album or EP, aim for all tracks to have a similar volume and sound character for a consistent listening experience (match between tracks).Preparation for Distribution: Ensure that the final file is in the correct format and resolution (sample rate, sampling rate, etc.).
