Hello, I'm wondering after the mix, should I lower the main output channel -6 for mastering?

Hello, I’m wondering after the mix, should I lower the main output channel -6 for mastering Thanks !

Are you asking to create a single audio file to be sent to a mastering engineer? Or stems? In that case - no. Export everything with the bit resolution of 32bit float and you’ll be fine.

If you’re going to do the mastering yourself in the same Cubase project, then it might be a good idea to allow yourself some headroom (like -6dB or even more) in order to be able to add some stuff.

Thank you brother.

You’re welcome, sexy.
