Heh...

Heeeeeeeh.....

That's some nice Jazz :)

For mastering, you could use Rezound or Audacity. Both support the
so-called LADSPA plugins, which are the standard tools for linux audio
processing right now.

I would:

* Normalize (for the volume)
* Equalize (for the brightness, e.g. with the 'Multiband EQ')
* and perhaps add a tiny bit of compression to make the sound fuller.
(e.g. with the 'SCO1')
