Created in collaboration with Lurssen Mastering

Lurssen Mastering has mastered for Elton John, Queens of the Stone Age, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Snoop Dogg, Bruno Mars, and many others, as well as soundtracks for Iron Man, Despicable Me, Up, and other feature films. Their approach involves setting up a pre-configured chain of processors based on the style of material they’re mastering – certain controls on the processors are set to a predetermined value for that specific style and are not adjusted. You’ll find this same workflow in IK Multimedia’s Lurssen Mastering Console: you choose the Style template Lurssen created for that specific musical style, and you are able to tweak the exact same parameters they would be tweaking.

Use as a plug-in or as a standalone mastering solution

While it will work as a plug-in for your DAW, Lurssen Mastering Console also offers a convenient standalone solution. You can view your audio’s waveform, add automation, loop audio, and quickly bypass your processing for comparisons. A pair of VU meters gives you an accurate representation of average program volume. And engineers at Sweetwater appreciate the inclusion of a Stereo/Mono switch, allowing you to quickly check phase coherence.

High-quality processing and export options

The processing in Lurssen Mastering Console occurs at 88.2kHz/96kHz resolution (depending on your source audio’s resolution) for consistently high-quality results. A range of audio formats is available upon export, including AAC, FLAC, WAV, and more.
