Hey guys,
Over the past few days I have been trying to master this song just right so that I can upload it to soundcloud without it sounding terrible. It has not been working out for me too well. First of all, the song is not loud and is nowhere near clipping so I have no idea why it sounds like it is clipping when I upload it to soundcloud. I am aware that soundcloud converts audio down to 128 kbps, but I was told that if you have a good enough mix your audio should not suffer too much. My mix is is below 0 db, every sound has it's low frequencies cut, every sound is eq'd, iv'e put effects into the mix, etc. I mean, the song sounds pretty clean. When I try to upload it to soundcloud though , the quality of the song greatly decreases, especially the hi hats, claps, and other higher frequencies for some reason. Iv'e tried mastering it and have watched tons of tutorials on youtube. After all of the compressing, limiting, raising of the volume, etc. the quality of the song still sounds the same no matter what on soundcloud. Even the softest parts of the song sound like they are being clipped. I have no idea what to do anymore lol. It is so frustrating. If anybody can give me some tips, tricks, secrets or mabey even help master my song, That would be AMAZING. Any help would be much much appreciated.
Thanks guys
