Do you know of a good site/yt-channel/etc. to learn about all the stuff of mixing/mastering (is there a difference between those two?)? My knowledge is all experience based, just sh*tting with a compressor and trying some things but I want to learn how to do it effectively.

From my limited understanding, mixing is the disposition of the tracks on the stereo pan and respective volume. Mastering is when you have the album completed and want to it to sound homogeneous: volume, equalization, etc.

In that case I'm more interested in mastering.
