Use cases

Who uses loudness mastering, and for what

Anyone who publishes spoken audio needs it to arrive at the right level. These are the most common workflows.

Podcasters

Publish every episode at the level podcast apps expect, with guests and hosts balanced and the hiss gone. Choose the stereo or mono podcast preset and upload straight from your editor.

Audiobook narrators

Check and master each chapter to the ACX requirements: RMS, peaks, noise floor and 192 kbps constant-bitrate MP3. The report gives you a pass or fail for each rule before you submit.
