IK Multimedia T-RackS 6 Pro Upgrade|Professional-grade Mixing and Mastering Processing Suite Upgrade
T-RackS 6 Pro Upgrade is aimed at professional mixing and mastering engineers, offering a modular processing chain, precise level metering, and high-quality algorithms suitable for bus and track polishing. It runs smoothly as a standalone application or within major DAWs, helping you quickly craft a consistent and reliable final sound. This is an upgrade license and requires ownership of a qualifying existing product.
Key Product Features
- Modular processing environment designed for mixing and mastering, enabling rapid creation of personalized effect chains.
- Flexible routing: supports series, parallel, and mid/side processing for precise shaping of frequency and spatial elements.
- Professional metering tools: peak, RMS, LUFS, and spectrum visualization to monitor levels and dynamics.
- High-quality algorithms with optional oversampling to reduce distortion and aliasing, enhancing detail and transparency.
- Preset management, A/B comparison, and snapshots for easy version control and quick recall of settings.
- Loading, processing, and exporting can be done in the standalone application, suitable for single tracks and full projects.
- Supports 64-bit floating-point processing and multi-sample-rate workflows, balancing audio quality and compatibility.
- Parameters can be controlled by DAW automation, facilitating dynamic changes and scene switching.
- The upgrade preserves existing assets and workflows to minimize migration cost (qualifying upgrade required).
System Requirements
- Operating System: Windows 64-bit (recommended Windows 10 or later); macOS 64-bit (Apple Silicon and Intel).

- Standalone application
Supported Hosts and Workflow Integration
Can be used in major DAWs that support AAX/AU/VST3, such as Pro Tools, Logic Pro, Cubase, Studio One, Ableton Live, Reaper, and others. A common workflow is: insert the plugin on the mastering bus or individual tracks, build the processing chain and monitor levels using standards like LUFS, then perform offline or real-time export. It can also be used with mix-assist and reference-track analysis tools to achieve an initial balance, then use T-RackS for detailed refinement and final loudness matching.
