That ozone manual looks very interesting

Yeah, that and "Secrets of the Mastering Engineer" by Bob Katz for more advanced use (I'm just coming to terms with the stuff in there only now) are probably the two best guides on mastering I've read.
The Ozone manual is great, but then again it also has some confusing references to the way you would've gone about mastering before computers were around (at least that's the way I see it), and seems to lack more of a personal insight into mastering, as if none of the authors are actually mastering engineers. Probably right too since it says that they collected most of the information from the web over the years.

Thanks, but my site is all ready to go just as soon as I have my own connection to upload it and to keep it updated. Though I might ask you for some help in a few weeks getting some forms and things done since they're kind of new to me.
In two weeks I'll be homeless, but hopefully I can move into a new place a week or two after that and get connected ASAP. Then I can upload everything I've meaning to over the past three months, like BotB's mastered album and of course this tutorial, though I'll upload a preliminary version in the next couple of days.

I've uploaded a draft version here: http://atlantis.plastiqueweb.com/documents/digital_audio_mastering.txt
Some sections are still incomplete, but I'm open to suggestions or any criticism as to how I can improve what's already there. Any additional points that might be worth mentioning too?
Sorry about the word wrap problem - didn't realise this 'til after I'd taken the file to where I could upload it from. Just open it in Notepad and select Word Wrap from the Format menu.

Maybe the material is too advanced for people to understand?
Still, I'd like to hear opinions or perhaps different views on anything and I'll see about correcting anything I might be doing wrong. I believe most of it should be easy enough to understand, but perhaps I've been too general and haven't given away enough practical advice?
Something that would help me actually is if anyone could give me the names of any freeware audio editors, linear phase or mastering equalisers, multiband compressors etc. Then I won't have to sound as if I'm being paid by the developers I've mentioned products from.
