I am having a lot of trouble with this honestly. I have just completed a complete 8 bit album, but due to timing I need to release it quickly. I've spent a lot of time on the mixes and the only way I can get it to sound "loud enough" in a play-list is to compress the hell out of it. This is partly because I am piss poor at mastering.
The mixes sounds good to me but I seem to have to squash all life out of the songs to get them at the "right" volume. All the delicacies are gone. If anyone has any ideas or wants to master some 8-bit songs, PM me if you can knock this out in a day or two (yeah I know, I know, everyone wants everything now) and let me know what you'd charge.
Also, I am using Plogue Chipsounds which is God's gift to users of traditional DAW's rather than trackers. I was in the middle of making an Arduinoboy when Chipsounds came out. It really is amazing.
