Noiz-Lab has introduced a solution specifically tailored to home studio users, called the 7-Step Mastering Suite.
Designed to be a complete mastering method consisting of seven plug-ins and a 7-step quick-start guide, the 7-Step Mastering Suite is as much a learning tool as it is a plug-in bundle. Noiz-Lab aims to provide home studio musicians and producers with a basic mastering workflow that is easy to learn and to execute.
The seven plug-ins are similar in style and functionality. "We had a lot of help from our beta testers - about 200 in total, from all over the world," explains JD. "They really helped us fine-tune our workflow and find the balance between the complexity and the usability of the plug-ins."
For convenience the plug-in names are numbered in the order they should be placed in the mastering chain, but because they are separate plug-ins and CPU-friendly, they can easily be moved around or instantiated multiple times. The 7-Step quick start guide that comes with the trial contains a lot of plug-in independent mastering tips.
Price: $109 USD / 99 EUR - There is a free 30-day trial. Go to www.noiz-lab.com/listen-to-an-example for a video introduction.
