Which do you prefer for dithering: CEP or Wavelab with the plug you place
on the master bus on the montage mode?

Also does the render button on the effects group in Montage mode permanently
change the individual files or does it save the new CD as a seperate bunch
of files?
I don't know if I am making sense here.

For years I have used CEP and it is a snap, but with WL you can do all the
songs on a cd in one go, and it offers a bit more in noise shaping so I wondered
if it was the more "pro" option.

John, I have WL Essentials which is somehting like 99.00 bucks and it is
way cool. The montage thing is a cd sequencer, you can lay out each "track"
in a linear fasion, and slide songs back and forth to make the time inbetween
just as you want them, you can also aply fades, adjust volume, add UAD plugs
to the mix (presision limite) really it is a mastering suite. Now, I would
bot master a dang thing, but I got it so I could sequence a CD EXACTLY how
i want it before I send it to the mastering house. Say if you uses Roxio
for rough cd;s you only can do 2 second intervals or whatever, and you can
not nudge..

Ok, so right now I am mastering something, an R&B record I worked on that
has NO budget., it is sort of liek a hip hop mix tape. When using WL the
output goes via my Comps on board sound card in there is some strange EQ
thing going on there, (low mid bump) so I can;t use any EQ on the mix in
WL!

Hi Cujo and John,
Your low mid bump is a result of horrible converter quality of all on
board sound cards. I wouldn't trust any use of EQ with the on board
sound cards. There are some very inexpensive audio PCI , USB and
Firewire cards available that will make a big difference.
Also Steinberg is putting out a mid=priced version of Wavelab that is a
stereo only very and no DVD support which will go for 299.00 and a
competitive upgrade version for 199.00. It will probably be out in end
of August.

In the full version you be able to place a effects on th master
sections, individual tracks and on individual clips all with send volume
control. Oh and you can also us external effect nay were in the effect
chain just like you can in Cubase/Nuendo. This way you can use outboard
gear or even Paris effects directly inside of Wavelab.

What would a decent USB interface be?

The wavelab I have allows effects on the master.

Right. I've considered upgrading to the newer version so I can insert a
hardware reverbs before the limiter in a mastering scenario.

I am using just the essentials it is about a 6 months old, would the essentails

for the stereo buss.

Only the Full version of Wavelab offers the external effects option.
