I thought the bass was over emphasized in the LANDR master.  LANDR may have boosted it, but you probably had it right in the mix.  There was more space in the LANDR master, though.  I guess what I am saying is like some of what LANDR did to the mix and some of what you did.  Knowing what LANDR does could influence how you mix to get the results you want, though it will probably take some trial and error.

Great blog Papup!   Good to read a balanced,  informed review of Landr amidst the hype and derision.

Knowing what LANDR does could influence how you mix to get the results you want, though it will probably take some trial and error.

Exactly...which is not all that different from working with a human mastering engineer, who should be willing to go back and forth a few times until you get what you want.
 
I have to say that based on the reactions I've seen, a lot of people must have had not very good interactions with mastering engineers...a good one will work with you. Obviously LANDR can't interact with you on a personal level, but I think people would understand LANDR better if they'd worked with a real mastering engineer who will say "okay, you want a little more/less bass, let me give it another pass." The difference with LANDR is if the preview has too much bass, then it's on you to reduce the bass in the mix instead of the mastering engineer in the master, and then you need to try again.

I don't mind that Landr is in Sonar, but I would still like a way to place cd markers in Sonar, and improve the wav editing.

The Cakewalk program Pyro is a wave editor with CD marker placement. I'd like to see a more integrated way to master and burn CD's built into Sonar, but Pyro does the job just fine.
