RTW has released the second plug-in in its Masterclass line of metering plug-ins – Mastering Tools follows the Loudness Tools plug-in, and is aimed at applications in postproduction, TV, film and music recording. This provides extensive analysis and display functions for mastering, metering and loudness measurement for single-channel and up to eight-channel audio as a standard-format plug-in for Windows and Mac OS.
Designed for simple, intuitive operation by a broader user base, Mastering Tools offers a wide range of PPM scales, displays and TruePPM measurements, and supports many of the leading global loudness standards, including ITU BS.1770-3/1771-1, ATSC A/85, EBU R128, ARIB, OP-59, AGICOM and the Calm Act. Other features include numerical or bargraph-style readout, plus MagicLRA and correlator display, audio vectorscope, RTA (Real Time Analyser), SSA (Surround Sound Analyser) and multicorrelator. For personal preference, users can choose from up to six window frame sizes and multiple instances.
‘RTW’s development of the RTW Masterclass Mastering Tools plug-in is part of the company’s continuing efforts to give a wider range of our customers access to high-quality audio metering and measurement,’ says RTW MD, Andreas Tweitmann. ‘It puts a very powerful tool for mastering, metering and loudness measurement into a convenient, easy-to-operate software package, adding further efficiency to the overall workflow.’
