Award-winning professional audio plug-in and software provider NUGEN Audio is proud to announce
availability of MasterCheck v1.7.0.1 — updating its music streaming auditioning plug-in to include MP3 and SoundCloud
support as the complete optimisation solution for today’s delivery services.
As a NUGEN Audio mainstay, MasterCheck optimises
mixes for today’s delivery services, revealing problems ahead of time
to enable its users to audition and
deliver masters perfectly tuned for today’s playout systems — a plug-in
providing the tools to make sure that music reaches the listener as
intended, in other
words. With the timely introduction of the v1.7.0.1 update, MasterCheck now
includes an Opus preset for SoundCloud — the online audio distribution
platform
and music sharing website based in Berlin, Germany, that enables its
users to upload, promote, and share audio — and also adds support for
MP3, a coding
format for digital audio.
“A SoundCloud preset was added so that SoundCloud content creators can use MasterCheck with the same ease and convenience as people creating
content for Apple Music, Spotify, Tidal, and YouTube, etc.” So says NUGEN Audio Solutions Specialist Freddy Vinehill-Cliffe, before adding: “It’s effectively one
click, rather than having to create a custom preset.” Prior to the v1.7.0.1 update, it was effectively ‘possible’ to use MasterCheck to
monitor for SoundCloud,
but because its settings were different to other superficially similar
platforms — notably not applying any loudness normalisation — this was a
comparatively
painful process!
“MP3
has fallen out of favour in recent years, but it is still something
that customers have frequently asked us to include in a MasterCheck update,” Freddy
Vinehill-Cliffe continues. “The
majority of online radio stations still use MP3 codecs, so this new
support is really useful for anyone mastering a track that might
end up on Internet radio.”
v1.7.0.1 is a recommended free update for all existing owners of MasterCheck —
also available to purchase (as a 32- and 64-bit-supporting
AAX-, AU-, VST-, and VST3-compatible plug-in) for Mac (OS X 10.7 and
above) and Windows (Vista and above) directly from NUGEN Audio
for a time-limited introductory promo price of $149.00 USD until August
22, 2019, rising thereafter to $199.00 USD.
