Initial Audio – Master Suite v1.0.0 for WiN & Mac

With Master Suite, mastering is as easy as 1-2-3. Simply adjust the volume and finish your track with the 3-band EQ and stereo imaging controls. Sending songs and instruments to clients, record labels, online stores, and streaming services require them to have industry-standard loudness to have a modern sound. 

The LUFS display shows the industry-standard loudness by turning green and warns you when you start getting too loud. An intelligent algorithm applies the right amount of limiting and compression, which can be controlled with easing and blending. The HD interface looks clean, feels great, and can be easily resized to suit your screen resolution.

THD plugin’s capabilities: Total Harmonic Distortion can “correct” the master and help increase perceived loudness.

Loudness: Increase or decrease the volume of your master in decibels. Uses an intelligent compression and limiting algorithm to ensure maximum loudness with minimal distortion.

LUFS Meter: The LUFS (loudness units relative to full scale) meter is a standard representation of perceived loudness. The meter turns green when it’s in the “sweet spot” of a loud master without overly compressing the dynamics of your mix.

Soften: This softens the compression curve, also known as the “soft knee.”

Mix: Mix the compressed audio with the original. If you’re pushing the volume hard and the master sounds too compressed with a loss of dynamics, this control can help restore some dynamics while maintaining the volume of the audio.

Analog: Modifies the frequency response of the main set for a more analog sound.
3-band EQ: Cut or boost low, mid, and high frequencies up to 6 dB.

Stereo imaging:The Mono control works by making the sound completely mono below the set frequency. This can help tighten the low end and ensure it comes only from the center of the stereo field. The Stereo control boosts the stereo field for frequencies above the midrange only, leaving the low frequencies untouched. This can be used to add extra “space” to the master, pushing instruments even wider in the stereo field.

Ceiling: Sets the maximum volume for peaks. Your master won’t get louder than this.
