The Mastering The Mix Bestsellers Bundle Black Friday deal brings four of the maker's customer favorites together for $125.20, which is 21% off, with the offer ending Nov 9, 2026.
The bundle holds FASTER MASTER, REFERENCE, RESO and FUSER. The maker describes the set as the tools its customers reach for most when building better-sounding mixes.
In short, it covers four jobs: mastering, referencing, resonance control and masking.
FASTER MASTER was co-created with David Guetta and Nicky Romero. It analyzes your song and generates 10 tailored Smart Presets, which the maker says get you 95% of the way to a finished master.
Load it as the last plugin in your chain, play the loudest section and click Analyze. Every adjustment is level-matched, so a louder setting never fools you into thinking it sounds better.
Inside, you get EQ, transient, compression and limiter modules. The compressor has four modes: Off, Light, Dynamic and Tight. The limiter offers drive, ceiling and true peak limiting.
A Lock function freezes a module's settings while you flip through presets. You can also import reference tracks and match their sonic profile, with auto-looped, level-matched playback for A/B checks.
REFERENCE 3 is built for comparing a work in progress against professional tracks. Load your own library and Smart Reference Tracks suggests the closest sonic matches for the song you are working on. Mix Descriptor Tags label each reference as bright, warm, wide, narrow, transient, compressed, balanced or loud.
Master Scope puts tonal balance, stereo width, phase analysis and overcompression detection in one view. The Level Line shows the EQ boosts and cuts needed to move closer to a reference, and the Width Display shows where the mix should be wider or tighter. Match Percentage scores your progress as you work.
Mix Balance suggests gain moves for vocals, drums, music and bass. Mix Instructor turns the analysis into written guidance for the low, mid and high bands.
Smart Loop finds the loudest section of a reference, Track Align syncs alternate versions, and REFSEND allows A/B testing of processing chains.
RESO targets excessive resonances that make a mix sound harsh. It points out which frequencies cause the trouble and guides you on how much reduction is needed to resolve the resonance dynamically without thinning the mix.
FUSER deals with sounds that clash. Where two sounds fight over the same frequencies, the software spots the clash and clears it using dynamic EQ and phase tools, so every instrument sits in its own slot in the mix.
Yes. The Black Friday deal takes 21% off the bundle, bringing it to $125.20, and it ends Nov 9, 2026. The bundle contains FASTER MASTER, REFERENCE, RESO and FUSER from Mastering The Mix.
Four plugins: FASTER MASTER for instant mastering presets, REFERENCE for comparing your mix to favorite tracks, RESO for resolving harsh resonances, and FUSER for detecting and fixing masking between instruments.
Load it as the final plugin, play your loudest section and click Analyze. It then delivers 10 tailored Smart Presets, with EQ, transient, compression, stereo width and limiter controls, all level-matched so comparisons stay honest.
It compares your mix to a chosen reference with Master Scope, covering tonal balance, stereo width, phase and overcompression. Match Percentage scores your progress, and Mix Instructor gives written advice for the low, mid and high bands.
