Mastering The Mix has teamed up with plugin developer 29 Palms to create a plugin that they say will help producers get a technically excellent final mix.
Here's what they say: "In a world where metering plugins are mostly unintuitive and uninteresting, we set out to create something that people wanted to use. A faultlessly accurate tool with engaging yet unobtrusive visuals. We present to you, 'Levels'."
The home display has four sections labelled Headroom, Stereo Field, Dynamic Range and Bass Space. Levels assesses your audio as it passes through. If there are no issues with your mix, the sections will glow green. If there is an aspect of your mix that needs to be fixed, the section will glow red. The four section icons are clickable and open up a new dedicated central display. These dedicated displays give you a relevant insight into the technical details of your mix.
