This is likely a very basic question from an inexperienced user, but in Steve H.'s Mastering 301 Logic series, he is always working on what seems to be one, bounced or combined audio file. Is this how mastering is usually done? What if I'm building a song from the ground up - is there work that should be done on each individual track? Thanks!

Sorry obviously meant the Mastering 401 series.

Hi Hamish, Sorry for the late reply -- that is very helpful! Thank you! The beginning of a long journey...
