If I can only afford one..which is best to own

Postby DrRobF » Wed Feb 27, 2019 1:45 am

I really only can afford one plug in right now so....
which would be better to own for an overall mastering plug in
T-racks One or master match

I know this is probably a really generic question but basically I am using pro tools and new to recording. I need something that just puts on that finishing touch of quality in the end... something that gives the tune an " on the radio" quality. Gies it that professional sound in the end.

Any suggestions would be so very helpful.

I'd actually recommend Lurssen Mastering Console for what you describe.

I'm not sure why but Peter_IK's link doesn't work...try this one https://www.ikmultimedia.com/products/l ... php?p=info

And I'd agree that the Lursen console is the best all-in-one mastering tool from IK. Very straight forward with minimal controls. There's a free demo version that you can try out to see if the workflow suits you.
