See Your Sound Get a deeper understanding of your sound than ever before with VISION 4X, a powerful visual analysis plugin with maximum precision. Developed in partnership with electronic music trio NOISIA, VISION 4X gives you the insights you need to prepare your tracks ready for competition with today’s top mixes, and the clarity to make the right mixing decisions with confidence – however modest your setup. Four Visual Dimensions VISION 4X combines four custom-built visual analysis tools that work simultaneously in real-time, including a spectrogram, bar graph, waveform and phase correlation meter. Each analyser is displayed in its own resizable window, allowing you to scale the plugin’s UI to suit your workflow.  Perfectly sync VISION 4X to your DAW and customise the analysis timeframe for any project. Choose to run the analysers continuously, or loop a section of time and let them overlay. Alternatively, if you want to hone in on a particular sound, set the plugin to retrigger whenever a MIDI signal is received – ideal for comparing kicks in real-time. Spectrogram VISION 4X’s powerful spectrogram provides enhanced low-end resolution, offering access to more information about the frequencies in your mix. Freeze the visualiser for a snapshot of your sound, zoom in to get a close-up of the frequency spectrum, and navigate the display to discover details that otherwise could be missed. A selection of visualisation modes allows you to see your sound in whatever way you require. Transient mode is designed for showing the start and end point of notes, Harmonic mode gives a more detailed look at the harmonic content of a signal, and All-round offers the best solution for a general overview of your audio. Customise the spectrogram’s display with ten Colour Maps to choose from, each one specifically selected for maximum information density when analysing sound. Brightness can be biased towards the low or high frequencies using Map Bias, and Range Hz and Range Db sliders give you total control over the frequency and volume range of the display. Bar Graph VISION 4X’s bar graph is a fully customisable spectrum analyser that can highlight the gain levels of the sustained frequencies in your sound. Choose to get an overview of how frequencies are distributed in your mix, or an intricate analysis, by varying the number of bars shown in the graph. The Speed of the bar graph’s movement can be adjusted to run alongside your track however you see fit, and you can easily spot peak levels using the Peak Hold sustain control. VISION 4X also has a Spectrum Highlight feature that indicates resonant frequencies, which can be tailored for sensitivity and matched with the colour coding of the spectrogram.    Understand and improve the balance of your mix by comparing it with reference curves from a range of genres, generated through an in-depth analysis of hundreds of tracks. Each reference curve has an average and a maximum value line, with overshooting clearly indicated in red – the perfect visual feedback tool for assurance in your mixing decisions. You can even generate your own custom reference curves by running tracks through VISION 4X and capturing them, so you can see how your track holds up against mixes from your favourite artists. Waveform As well as the spectrogram and bar graph, VISION 4X features a waveform analyser that enables you to carefully inspect your sound source. Alongside the plugin's other visualisers, you can use the waveform analyser to magnify soundwaves and gain valuable pitch, volume and timing information, with an intuitive colour-coded display. The waveform analyser is accompanied by VU and RMS metering tools, allowing you to assess volume and loudness levels with ease. Keep track of the headroom for your mix with an overshoot highlighting feature that informs you when levels are going above 0dB. Phase Correlation Meter Explore the stereo dimensions of your sound with VISION 4X’s phase correlation meter, a tool that gives you an impression of your stereo spread and helps you to determine phase differences between the left and right channels. Any phase issues are clearly displayed along the centre line, helping you to maintain alignment and prevent any loss of audio when you’re converting to mono.

  FASTER MASTER, co-created with David Guetta and Nicky Romero, gives you instant, professional-quality masters in just a few clicks. It analyzes your track, generates tailored Smart Presets, and lets you fine-tune EQ, transients, compression, stereo width, and limiting, all with precise loudness matching so every decision you make is honest and reliable.     Rapid Transformation FASTER MASTER analyzes your song and instantly delivers 10 custom-tailored presets that get you 95% of the way to a finished master. Find the best vibe and tweak to perfection. Better Decisions Every adjustment is automatically level-matched, so you hear the real impact of your changes without being fooled by volume differences, leading to more confident, pro-level decisions. Quickstart Load FASTER MASTER as the final plugin in your mastering chain. Play your track’s loudest section and click “Analyze.” Smart Presets After analysis, Smart Presets deliver 10 tailored presets for your track’s vibe. Use the preset arrows to flip through presets for quick inspiration. Open the preset panel to explore genre-specific options or import reference tracks for custom profiles. Match Reference Tracks Import your favourite tracks and match their sonic profile.     If using a reference-based preset, you can compare your mastered track to the reference track. Click the ‘Play’ button in the preset display to preview your reference track auto-looped and level-matched to your mastered song. EQ Pristine filters that minimize phase distortion and transient smearing, ensuring your tracks maintain their clarity and impact during the mastering process. All EQ adjustments you make are level-matched in real-time, so when you hit bypass, you can fairly compare the before and after. You can adjust the mix percentage with a simple drag. TRANSIENTS Refining transients is key to achieving a pro sound. The Transient module handles the complex processing in the background behind an intuitive interface. Drag up to boost punch, down to soften it. The adjustments you make are level-matched in real-time, ensuring you only hear the effect of the transient processing without being influenced by a change in loudness. COMPRESS Balance your mix and bring cohesion with exceptional-sounding compression that’s easy to use. Simply adjust the amount to taste, while thresholds and other parameters adapt automatically based on your chosen setting: Off, Light, Dynamic, or Tight. Use the low-cut sidechain to remove sub-bass from the detection signal, preventing loud kicks and bass from causing unwanted pumping. Every adjustment is instantly loudness-matched, so you hear the true effect of the compression without being misled by volume changes. STEREO Shape the width of your track across four frequency ranges (low-end, low-mid, high-mid, high-end) while preserving audio integrity and avoiding phase issues. Drag nodes inward to narrow or outward to widen each range, with every adjustment loudness-matched for fair, accurate comparisons. LIMIT Limiting can make or break your music. Bad limiter settings can ruin your track instantly. FASTER MASTER gives you optimized limiter settings tailored to your unique song. All you need to do is set your preferred maximum loudness. Add drive for more perceived loudness, set your ceiling, and enable true peak limiting if desired. LOCK Locking a module keeps the settings unchanged when switching presets.  Great if you found the perfect stereo setting, but want to explore different EQ settings. Features Instant Smart Presets – Analyzes your track and delivers 10 custom-tailored mastering presets that get you 95% of the way to a finished master.
