Hi Product Hunt,
The music industry is facing a paradigm shift with the rise of independent artists. Never before has it been easier to compose and arrange a song in your bedroom, but still many artists struggle to finalize their songs, and to achieve the quality their tracks really deserve. This is mainly due to the sound side of things being very technical, where mastering a song is still often referred to as some kind of ‘dark magic’, which requires expertise most independent artists don’t have.
This has led to many people outsourcing the mastering process to either a Human Mastering Engineer or an existing AI solution. This still introduces some issues:
❍ Human mastering engineers can be quite expensive ($90+/track), and as they also build their own portfolio of clients, smaller artists are often left with a poor result given what they had to pay.
❍ Existing AI solutions still require artists to tweak some parameters for acceptable results. In addition, their focus is on monthly/yearly subscriptions, which for smaller artists is hard to justify with a fluctuating number of releases per year.
This is why we created Masterchannel, a premium mastering tool that helps an artist achieve world-class master quality with the click of a button. And by offering a pay-per-master solution, we put the artist at the center of our attention from the start to the final master.
Powered by our unique technology and the latest research in Artificial Intelligence, Masterchannel analyzes and understands your song similar to a mastering engineer’s thought process. This leads to:
☑️ Zero technical expertise required from the user
☑️ Studio-grade master quality for your songs
☑️ Final results in less than 10 minutes
