Excellent track!
 
Im using Background recording with Audiostudio, no rendering
DAW rendering ist mostly shitty shit shit...
Use same resolution and samplerate, in recordmode, like your DAW.
Then render what you want. But thats my meaning

I switched to Ableton Live after having several GarageBand mixdowns with the same problem you mentioned. You might check to following:

I don't think I've been adjusting that - will look into this before I start next time - Thank you!

Does GB have a spectrum analyzer plugin? (If not, you could definitely install a spectrum analyzer Audio Unit plugin--first one that turned up in a search was http://www.bluecataudio.com/Products/Bu … ewarePack/.)  Often weirdness in the mastering stage is the result of high-volume low-frequency that eat up the available dynamic range when the output file is normalized.  (Normalizing is taking the loudest peak and setting it at 0dB, so the file doesn't clip.)  If you have a huge spike at, say, 40Hz or lower...you might not hear it on your headphones or monitors, but it'd be there, forcing everything else to be reduced in level.   

Very cool breakbeat/dub feel to this one, great ostinato, and I like how the voice/keys/drums interact.  I do hear clipping on those flanged drums, which suggests a collision at a few different places in the audio spectrum.  (Remember that metaphor one friend of mine had that each frequency is like a car in a parking lot space? You can't have two cars trying to get into the same space without trouble.)

this is actually what i think was happening - i've been really careful to watch for this - haven't been having the compression problems but now it's filters doing weird suff - whenever i want to use effects in mastering it all starts getting wonky - but that's kinda on me to figure out now & not the programs fault - there are still sometimes when i wish i could get more umph in the master...

will work on not double parking my drums
