NUGEN MasterCheck 2

NUGEN Audio created MasterCheck 2 to help music producers, mastering engineers and broadcasters adapt to modern loudness normalisation standards used by streaming platforms and broadcast networks. As the industry moved away from traditional loudness-driven mastering, it became essential for audio professionals to understand how their mixes would sound on services such as Spotify, Apple Music and YouTube. Without the right tools, mixes could suffer from over-compression, loss of detail or unintended changes in playback level due to platform-specific normalisation. MasterCheck 2 was developed to address these challenges by offering real-time loudness metering, dynamic range analysis and codec auditioning. By simulating how different platforms process audio, it enables users to make informed decisions and ensure their mixes translate consistently across all listening environments. Whether preparing music for streaming release or ensuring compliance with broadcast standards, MasterCheck 2 gives audio professionals the confidence to deliver polished, professional results.
