Mastering Console V2 is an analog-inspired mastering chain that puts filter, saturation, EQ, de-essing, and limiting in a single window. Low and high cut filters with selectable slopes clean up the extremes, while the Tube Sat stage adds weight with a Clean–Hot range and saturation filter so you only color the part of the spectrum you intend. The Bax EQ delivers broad 40 Hz and 12 kHz shelves for subtle tilt, and the M-S Matrix balances Mid against Side. A built-in de-esser with amount, frequency, and gain-reduction meter tames harshness before the true-peak limiter, which has its own input drive and metering. A large VU pair with IN/GR/OUT switching keeps you informed. Smart Gain and Link Gain simplify level matching, and A/B compare, short-term LUFS readout, and a new oversampling algorithm round out the package. Ideal for hobby producers putting the final professional touch on master buses and sub-mixes.
