Get Heard, Exactly How You Intended.
Streaming platforms are a double-edged sword for musicians. They offer global reach, but their compression and normalization can hurt your carefully crafted mixes. MasterCheck is your all-in-one solution to ensure your music sounds amazing on any streaming service.
Reveal Hidden Issues Before They Happen
MasterCheck predicts how streaming services will affect your audio. You'll see how loudness normalization impacts your mix, allowing you to find the sweet spot between punch and dynamics. It also detects potential clipping and distortion caused by encoding, so you can fix them before anyone hears a bad version.
Hear the Difference on Every Platform
MasterCheck lets you audition your music using presets for popular streaming services like Spotify, Apple Music, and YouTube. This way, you can hear exactly how your music will sound to listeners, regardless of their device or subscription level.
Master for Streaming Success
Loudness wars are a thing of the past for streaming. MasterCheck helps you avoid over-loud masters that services will simply turn down. This wasted headroom could be used for impactful transients and overall clarity. It also helps you identify True Peak clipping that can cause distortion when your music is encoded.
Mix Smarter, Not Harder
Most streaming services have similar loudness targets. Mixing for the loudest platform won't give you an advantage - it'll just get turned down. Use MasterCheck to audition your mix at streaming service levels and hear how it translates to the real world.
MasterCheck empowers you to deliver music that sounds incredible on any platform, every time.
