Mastered for iTunes - how to prepare your music (VIDEO)

November 29th, 2013 BY 



I've written before about Mastered for iTunes, but I've been getting so many questions about it recently I thought it would be worth doing a video demonstration.

So, in the video above I explain briefly what "Mastered for iTunes" is, why you may be interested, and show you how to make sure your music complies with Apple's guidelines.

In particular, I discuss the concept of intersample peaks, and show you how to use Apple's free RoundTripAAC plugin to make sure you can avoid this problem.

I hope you find it useful, please let me know if you have any questions in the comments !
