Are you into mastering your own tunes? The few tutorials I've read always mention using a reference track (same genre or style as what you're trying to master) as a guide to aid in your own mastering attempts. Well what if you could get a head start by automatically matching and mastering your track to be similar to your reference track?

Here's a cool open source tool to assist with your mastering, Matchering.

Full transparency: I am not a mastering pro or the author of this cool software. I found this software when I was attempting to remaster a few troublesome tracks and could not get close to my reference tracks. I didn't expect miracles, but I was blown away by the quickness and how well Matchering was able to remaster the tracks I was working on. Works on Linux, Mac and Windows.

Anyway hope this is useful and have fun!

This is the blurb from the Matchering github page:

Matchering 2.0 is a novel Containerized Web Application and Python Library for audio matching and mastering.

It follows a simple idea - you take TWO audio files and feed them into Matchering:

• TARGET (the track you want to master, you want it to sound like the reference)
• REFERENCE (another track, like some kind of "wet" popular song, you want your target to sound like it)

Our algorithm matches both of these tracks and provides you the mastered TARGET track with the same RMS, FR, peak amplitude and stereo width as the REFERENCE track has.

You can try out Matchering yourself without having to install it, thanks to the hosting provided by Moises.ai.

So Matchering 2.0 will make your song sound the way you want! It opens up a wide range of opportunities:

• You can make your music instantly sound like your favorite artist's music
• You can make all the tracks on your new album sound the same very quickly
• You can find new aspects of your sound in experiments
• You can do everything as you want! Because of Your References, Your Rules.™ (just a little nostalgic note)
