Mastering Suite

music production knowledge

Mastering Suite by Acon Digital is a plug-in platform that has five processing and mastering tools, giving you five plug-ins that are designed for audio mastering and processing in one principal interface. These plug-ins have been designed with a user-friendly approach in mind, giving you transparency and a pristine intuitive workflow. The mastering suite has the following plug-ins: Dynamics, Limit, Equalize, Dither and Multiband Dynamics.

A combined compressor, expander or gate. The look-ahead can be set anyplace from to 30 milliseconds and the clever algorithm guarantees a band-limited pickup signal which diminishes potential distortion to a minimum even with minimal attack and release times. You’ll be able to utilize up to 4 times oversampling to further reduce distortion. The side chain signal can be either inner or external and there’s a full-blown side chain equalizer integrated with a low cut, low rack, peak, high shelf and high cut filters. The complexity of calculations isn’t reflected within the instinctive user interface which gives graphical visualizations of all perspectives of the handling happening in the plug-in.

The multi-band expansion of Dynamics permits dynamic processing in up to four partitioned bands. You’ll unreservedly set the cross-over frequencies and even the filter slopes can be set openly within the range 6 and 48 dB per octave. Multiband Elements works in linear phase mode to avoid stage issues between the handled bands. A transparent limiter with a cleverly look-ahead in the range of 30 milliseconds diminishes distortion to a minimum.

A parametric equalizer. Not at all like other equalizers, you’ll openly adjust centre frequency, gain and bandwidths, and the channel incline for each band. The channel slant can be set anywhere from 3 dB to ultra-sharp 120 dB per octave.
