Thanks everybody for your support....this has always been kind of a blurry area for me. I know now in the future I am gonna get the:

Instrumental, Acappella, & TV Mix mastered along with the album. Cause the latest album where I did that is lightyears ahead of the other 5 albums that were mastered but not the instrumentals!

Also thanks for the spectral analyzing suggestion with some high quality mastered inst's and plugins.

Since I have shows all next week I wanna prep my older beats for performance. Any plug ins or plug in settings I could use in my daw to get em ready? Should I hype the highs and lows? How about push the limiting harder than usual?....Also I am going to A/B reference some nice Dr. Dre Inst's along with a few other grade A recorded, mixed, and mastered commercial releases.

anything else would be awesome...

Thanks again!
