Description

NUGEN MasterCheck|The Ultimate Mastering Optimization Solution for the Streaming Era

Say Goodbye to Guesswork, Precisely Control Your Final Sound on Major Streaming Platforms

In today's music distribution landscape, your work is no longer just heard on CDs or high-quality files. Streaming platforms like Spotify, Apple Music, and YouTube have become mainstream, and their respective data compression and loudness normalization algorithms can potentially render your meticulously crafted, impactful mixes flat and powerless, or even introduce unexpected clipping and distortion. NUGEN MasterCheck is the ultimate tool designed to solve this modern challenge. It allows you to instantly preview how your work will sound on different streaming services during the mastering phase, ensuring your music reaches every listener in its optimal state. This is not just a monitoring tool; it's an essential asset for achieving professional-grade streaming platform optimization and adhering to industry loudness standards, making your mastering workflow seamlessly compatible with global release standards.

Product Features

  • Master Streaming Platform Rules: Built-in loudness standard presets for major platforms (Spotify, Apple Music, Tidal, YouTube, etc.) allow you to simulate with one click, ensuring your master plays optimally on any platform, preventing forced volume reduction and dynamic range sacrifice.
  • Real-time Codec Auditioning: Directly audition your audio after it's been processed by various data compression codecs (e.g., AAC, Ogg Vorbis, MP3) before export. Proactively identify and correct issues like frequency masking, narrowed stereo image, or distortion caused by compression.
  • True Peak Detection: Accurately measure and prevent inter-sample peaks, which are the primary culprits of hidden clipping leading to downstream encoding distortion, ensuring your audio is pristine on any playback device.
  • PLR Dynamic & Loudness Balance: Through Peak-to-Loudness Ratio (PLR) measurement, it helps you find the perfect 'sweet spot' between perceived loudness and musical dynamics, avoiding over-compression and preserving the music's vitality and impact.
  • Objective A/B Reference Comparison: Load your reference track and use the 'Offset to match' function to automatically match loudness for fair, objective A/B comparisons, bringing your master's quality in line with commercially released works.
  • Flexible Workflow: With a resizable interface and customizable meter displays, MasterCheck seamlessly integrates into your workflow, whether you're a mixing engineer or a mastering engineer, enhancing efficiency and accuracy.

Core Features Explained

Real-time Codec Auditioning (Audition Codecs)

Directly audition your audio in your DAW, in real-time, after it's been compressed by various mainstream codecs. Proactively identify and resolve potential audio quality issues. MasterCheck includes presets for specific streaming services, allowing you to accurately simulate the listener's actual experience.

  • Ogg Vorbis: The primary encoding format used by Spotify.
  • FLAC: Lossless compression format, used by services like Tidal HiFi.
  • Opus: Highly efficient open-source codec, used in various real-time communication and streaming applications.
  • AAC-LC: A standard widely used by platforms such as Apple Music and YouTube.
  • HE-AACv1 (AAC+): Commonly used for lower bitrate streaming services.
  • HE-AACv2 (DAB+): A more efficient codec, used for digital radio broadcasting, etc.
  • MP3: A long-standing and still widely used lossy compression format.
Reference Track & Comparison Function (Reference & Comparison)
  • External Reference Track (External ref): Load your commercial reference tracks via the Side-chain function to perform A/B comparisons directly within the plugin, analyzing differences in loudness (LUFS), PLR, and True Peak.
  • Loudness Matching (Offset to match): This function is key to objective comparison. It automatically adjusts the volume of your reference track or the audio before/after your effects chain to match the loudness of your target audio. This helps you focus on evaluating the timbre, dynamics, and spatial processing without being influenced by volume differences.
Designed for Mastering Engineers (For Mastering)

Streaming platforms are like a fixed-size 'mailbox' that your music must pass through smoothly. Ultra-loud masters that won the loudness war in the CD era will only be mercilessly turned down on streaming platforms, thereby wasting valuable dynamic headroom. MasterCheck allows you to:

  • Utilize the dynamic headroom provided by platforms to preserve more transient details and impact in your music.
  • Monitor and eliminate true peak clipping, preventing distortion during the encoding process.
  • Evaluate whether excessive compression will lead to annoying 'hissing' or reduced stereo separation issues under low-bitrate encoding.
Designed for Mixing Engineers (For Mixing)

Mastering begins with mixing. If the mix is over-compressed at the mixing stage, mastering engineers will have little room to recover it. Today's mainstream streaming platforms have a maximum and minimum target loudness difference of only about 3 LU, so mixing louder than the loudest platform is meaningless. MasterCheck helps you:

  • Audition your mix directly at the platform's playback volume during mixing to understand how it sounds in a real-world environment.
  • Avoid using excessive compression on the mix bus, preserving enough dynamic headroom for the mastering engineer to process later.
  • Ensure that the transient details of your mix are not permanently lost before submission for mastering.
