LOUDNESS

CHECK
LUFS-I
Where you land vs releases
typical releases   your track

Reading levels.

How loud your track is overall, and how far streaming platforms will turn it down to hit their target.

FREQUENCY

CHECK
TONAL TILT
Vs genre

Reading tonal balance.

The balance of lows to highs across your track, which tells you whether it leans dark, bright, or even.

REFERENCE TRACK

NO REFERENCEDROP A TRACK TO COMPARE

Drop a track you're chasing. It runs through the same analysis engine as yours, so the numbers are directly comparable: loudness, dynamics, and tonal balance, side by side. The tonal-balance overlay shows up on the Frequency chart.

STEREO

CHECK
CORRELATION
Correlation over time
Correlation meter
Out of phase (−1)Mono (+1)
Per-band mono safety (low / mid / high)

Reading stereo field.

How wide your mix sits across left and right, and whether that width survives when it collapses to mono.

Phase scope

DYNAMIC RANGE

CHECK
CREST FACTOR
DENSITY

Reading dynamics.

The gap between your loudest and average moments, which is what makes a track punch instead of feeling flat.

CLIPPING & HEADROOM

OK
HEADROOM
Kiss (1-3 samples)
Brief (4-32 samples)
Sustained (33+ samples)

Reading clipping.

Whether your peaks push past the ceiling, the point where some playback systems start to distort.

RESONANCE TEST

OK
RINGING 2-5 kHz
2–5 kHz RESONANCE
BY BAND, 1–8 kHz, EACH VS ITS OWN AVERAGE
WHERE YOU LAND VS RELEASES

Reading resonance.

Narrow ringing peaks from 1 to 8 kHz, shown in four lanes. The score grades the middle two, 2 to 5 kHz, the zone that makes a mix tiring over time. Separate from the HIGH-MID level above: that band can sit on target and still ring at one frequency.

MASTERING READINESS

OK
READINESS
GRADED AS

Reading mastering readiness.

A plain checklist of whether your track is ready to release for the context you picked.

TRACK CHARACTER

OK
FEEL SCORE

/ 100

Reading track character.

The identifying details of the track: tempo against the genre you picked, key with its Camelot code, how busy it is, and how human versus programmed it reads.

Tempo and key are estimated from the audio, so confirm them by ear before trusting them. The feel score reads how much natural human variation is in the take: spectral richness, harmonic irregularity, and timing. Loose live playing scores high; tightly quantized or synth-driven tracks score lower. A lower score is about character, not quality.
