AI music mastering

Your AI Music Sounds Flat? Hear the Difference.

AI-generated music has real technical problems: missing bass, stereo artifacts, flat dynamics. MasterForge shows you why, and gives you the tool that fixes it.

Before

Suno AI Output

Stereo Artifacts High

AI decodes L and R channels independently, creating incoherent artifacts in the stereo difference signal. Side channel energy: -26.7 dB RMS.

Bass Foundation Missing

Latent space compression loses low-frequency temporal detail. The bass is a statistical guess, not a real waveform. Sub: -27.2 dB, Bass: -21.6 dB.

Dynamics Flat

Loss function averaging optimizes toward the mean, compressing micro-dynamics. Crest factor: 4.07, LRA: 1.20 LU, almost no dynamic variation.

Clarity Veiled

Neural codec shimmer in 6-14 kHz masks usable high-frequency content. High end sounds harsh and dull at the same time. LUFS: -14.16.

After

MasterForged

Stereo Artifacts Removed

M/S processing isolated and removed side-channel artifacts. Side energy reduced by 6.1 dB. Stereo image is now coherent and focused. Mid/Side ratio: 16.8 dB.

Bass Foundation Restored

Bass Mono + Multiband Compressor restored the low end to natural levels. Sub: -24.2 dB (+3.0), Bass: -19.3 dB (+2.4). Bass stereo bleed reduced by 6.8 dB.

Dynamics Punchy

Multiband compression + limiting added density and punch without destroying transients. Crest factor: 3.87, LRA: 0.90 LU. Tighter, more musical dynamics.

Clarity Bright

With side artifacts removed, high frequencies could be safely boosted. Result: brighter and cleaner, not harsher. LUFS: -13.36. Noise floor improved by 2.2 dB.

AUTOMATIC MASTERING

Or let the pipeline do it. Upload and walk away.

Auto-Master repairs the codec artifacts first, writes a mastering plan from the repaired audio, and renders the final file with the same Pro Master engine our subscribers drive by hand. No session, no knobs, no waiting in the browser. An email tells you when it is ready.

What comes back: a release-ready WAV at your platform loudness target, the prepared FLAC, and the written plan behind every decision
Not a preset chain: the restoration is measured before and after, and the plan is written for your track rather than picked off a shelf
Re-run at a different restoration strength and keep the take you prefer. A run that fails before delivering anything refunds its own credits

Run Auto-Master →

3 credits per run · Credit packs from €4.99
Pro subscribers get 4 credits every month

ONE-OFF MASTERING

Don't want to subscribe? Buy a single master.

Send me one track. I'll diagnose every fixable issue, master what's there by hand, and send back a polished file plus a 6-page PDF report. No synthesis, no AI generation, no new material added.

Full source diagnosis: loudness, true peak, spectral balance, stereo correlation, and AI artifacts like shimmer or codec smearing when the source is AI-generated
Hand-mastered with the audio you sent: tilt EQ, bus compression, brickwall limiter, mid-side moves where the diagnostic flags them
You receive: mastered WAV (24-bit / 48 kHz), 6-page PDF report with before/after measurements, and concrete recommendations for your next mix
