When I record, I do so straight to my digital multitracker. (A Korg D3200) I
handle all my EQing and compression and effects from there. Then I burn to
CD using the highest quality settings and rip the CD to WMA. I then open up
the file in Cool Edit 2.1 and tinker with additional stuff, Normalization,
further EQ, etc. And I save to the highest quality MP3 possible.

I notice when I play my stuff in the car or on other home audio systems,
everything always seems "narrower" than a professional label recording. Is
this something that mastering would address? I confess that I don't know
much about what the process actually does, let alone what to use to do it.
Thanks!

Probably not a mastering issue.

Is the distance between your your head and each studio monitors less than the
distance between the monitors?

If so, move them so they make an equilateral triangle.
