Wave Arts FinalPlug 7

Description

Mastering your audio has never been simpler. FinalPlug combines a powerful lookahead peak limiter with ITU-BS.1770 loudness metering, offering a versatile solution for both gain staging and final mastering.

Dual Functionality:

• Insert Effect: Use FinalPlug as an insert effect within your DAW for precise gain control and volume maximization throughout your mix.
• Mastering Tool: Place FinalPlug at the end of your mastering chain to ensure your audio meets industry-standard loudness and true peak levels for streaming services and distribution.

Effortless Loudness Compliance:

• Set Your Ceiling: Choose your desired output level (e.g., -0.1 dB) with the intuitive interface.
• Fine-Tune Volume: Adjust the threshold to increase loudness while maintaining control.
• Target and Match: Select the “Analyze” preset and choose your delivery target. FinalPlug will display the target integrated loudness and true peak levels.
• Play and Match: Play your mastered track. FinalPlug displays the actual integrated loudness and true peak levels in real-time. If they exceed the target (orange), simply click “MATCH” at the end of playback.
• Export with Confidence: FinalPlug automatically adjusts the limiter to achieve the target loudness without exceeding the true peak level. Now you can export your compliant audio with peace of mind.
