Upload your mix. We measure its DNA — bass weight, stereo width, dynamic range, high-end air — and plot it against the genre benchmark you're working toward. Then we tell you exactly what to fix.
Bass Weight measures the energy in the 20–150Hz band, scored per octave against a reference tonal-balance curve so it reflects your low-end balance rather than just overall volume. A score around 8 is normal for trap or EDM; 3–4 is normal for acoustic folk. If your bass weight is significantly outside the genre benchmark, listeners will notice — either the low end is overwhelming the mix or it sounds too thin for the style.
High End Air measures energy above 10kHz. This is what makes a mix feel open, expensive, and modern. Too low and the mix sounds dark and muffled. Too high and it fatigues. Most commercial mixes sit in a surprisingly narrow range for their genre.
Stereo Width measures the mid/side energy ratio. Wide mixes fill the speakers and feel cinematic. Narrow mixes feel tight and focused. The right answer depends entirely on genre — ambient and cinematic music should be very wide; hip-hop and drill often sit much narrower than producers expect.
Dynamic Range measures PSR — the gap between your true-peak level and your short-term loudness (the modern successor to crest factor). High dynamic range means breathing room, impact on transients, and a mix that feels alive. Low dynamic range usually means the limiter is working too hard. Streaming platforms normalize loudness, so crushing your master doesn't make it louder for listeners — it just removes the dynamics.
Presence (2–5kHz) and Mids (250Hz–2kHz) are measured directly from your spectrum, like every other axis — the presence band is where vocals, snares and lead instruments cut through, and the mid band is the body of the mix. These read the energy in those bands, not isolated stems: true vocal-versus-backing balance needs source separation, but band energy is a strong, honest proxy. Most amateur mixes fail right here — the vocal sits back (low presence) or the midrange congests (too much mid energy).
