Neural Finalizer V1 - Neural Mastering VST

Neural Finalizer v1 is a new finalizing/mastering vst plugin which uses neural networks trained on my actual master FX chains to accurately reproduce and condense my mastering workflow into 1 minimal low latency plugin.

Put another way, my complex, super high CPU FX chains of multiband compression, EQ and saturation, are all baked into neural snapshots that model complex audio behavior.

This creates a sharable, cross-platform, multi-DAW compatible plugin that anyone can use simply and affordably.

Download Neural Finalizer v1

main features:

1. 16 Neural Profiles - accurate neural network models of my actual mastering chains on released songs

2. Input/Output Gain Controls

3. Neural Profile On/Off Switch (for comparison)

4. Hard Clip/Peak Output Control

How I Use It

Simply put the plugin on the master channel of your song and click through the song preset neural profiles to find one which sounds the best to you. Next, adjust the input gain to fit the neural network just right to sound clean but not too intense and distorted, just louder and punchy and full. I usually keep my songs pre-mastering hitting with around -6dB of headroom, but there are no rules and the input gain aims to quickly adjust that!

NOTE: this plugin does use a decent amount of CPU and processing power, but significantly less than my entire mastering fx chains, which individually are basically maxing out my old mac at 90-100% cpu usage constantly, while this plugin is more like 20-40% for me.
