Preparation now has a fourth mode. Auto-Master takes a track all the way: upload it, walk away, and a release-ready master lands in your account with an email to tell you it is done. No knobs, no session, no waiting in the browser.
What actually happens to your file
The run is the same pipeline we use on hand-mastered work, start to finish:
- Measure. Your track is analysed for loudness, true peak, spectral tilt, crest, correlation and the artifact signatures AI generators leave behind.
- Repair. The SpectralForge engine removes the tonal artifact bed, corrects the tilt, tames high-frequency spike bursts, repairs clicks at vocal onsets and rebuilds transients the codec rounded off.
- Plan. A mastering plan is written from the repaired audio, not from the damaged original, so the decisions are made on what the track actually is.
- Master. The Pro Master engine renders the final file at your platform loudness target, the same engine and the same DSP a Pro subscriber drives by hand.
- Deliver. The finished WAV, the prepared FLAC and the plan behind it all land on the run page, and a ready email tells you when.
This is not a preset
Every automatic mastering service on the market applies a chain and hopes. Auto-Master repairs first and decides second: the restoration is measured before and after, and the mastering plan is written for your track rather than picked from a shelf. That is also why it runs on our servers instead of in your browser, and why it costs credits while everything MasterForge does locally stays free.
If you do not like the result
Re-runs at a different restoration strength rebuild the master too, so you can hear gentle against aggressive on the same track and keep the one you prefer. One run covers up to three passes. And if a run fails before delivering anything, it refunds its own credits automatically.
What it costs
An Auto-Master run is 3 credits. Pro subscribers get 4 credits included every month, which covers a full Auto-Master and a Pro Analysis on top. Anyone can buy credits from the account page: 4 credits for €4.99, 10 for €9.99, 25 for €19.99. Credits work across every Preparation mode, so the same balance buys diagnosis, repair, or the whole thing.
