Let's post horror stories from a client that compares a "console mix" from a "mastered mix". I've had a few that listen in their car and want it to sound as loud as......... But mixing analog as I do, you can only make copies so hot..........

I call it Psudo-Mastered, but on all the copies I put UNMASTERED MIXES - NOT FOR PRODUCTION!!! So hopefully any mastering engineer worth his salt would ask for the Un-Psudo-Mastered Tapes or files before proceeding. I've had Psudo-Mastered Roughs get mastered, from cassette even....... Some folks never learn, or don't know or want to know the difference............

You are so right....I learned from that experience and now squash it, even for most refs.

Lost a gig over that deal. The client kept comparing the board to something mastered. I squished it till I couldn't take it any more. Client even went to another engineer who told them he could make it sound different, not necessarily better.
