There are many online tools that can automatically master your track, but today I am going to show you a really cool free mastering tool called Matchering 2.0.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Available on GitHub here<\/a>, Matchering 2.0 is a “novel containerised web application and Python library for audio matching and mastering”. It can be compared to premium tools such as LANDR<\/a> and eMastered<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Simply put, it will take your mix and make it sound more like a song of your choosing (with regard to the master mix).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What version to choose?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

It consists of two parts: Matchering Core<\/strong> and Matchering Web<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Matchering Core<\/strong>: A separate module for automated reference mastering based entirely on open technologies (Python, Numpy), which can be inserted into any program by any developer for free<\/strong><\/span><\/em>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Matchering Web<\/strong>: A client for using Matchering Core inside the browser. It turns out that this is a self-hosted LANDR \/ eMastered alternative!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How does Matchering 2.0 work?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

It works by comparing your track (target track) with a reference track (one you have selected that sounds amazing). It will then work on matching the target track’s RMS, frequency response, peak amplitude, and stereo. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
