Been a while since I posted here but there is something that I have been thinking about for a while now.
How does the mastering engineer go about mastering something like a greatest hits album? Say something like Signs of Chaos by Testament.
Does the engineer find a happy medium between all the songs from different albums? Has anyone noticed a master of a song on a comilation album like this one being substantially different to the orginal album master, say more squashed or brighter for instance?
Cheers
