You’ve poured everything into your track. The mix is balanced, the performance is perfect, but it’s still missing that final, elusive polish. It lacks the loudness, clarity, and professional sheen that makes a song leap from the speakers and compete on the world stage. Mastering is that final, critical step—the bridge between a great mix and a commercial-ready release. But for many producers and artists, the art of mastering feels like a complex, expensive, and unattainable secret.
What if you could place your music in the hands of a multi-Grammy Award-winning mastering engineer, using the very signal chain and workflow that has shaped countless hit records?
Introducing the Lurssen Mastering Console, a revolutionary mastering tool for Mac, PC, and iOS that puts a lifetime of world-class experience at your fingertips. Developed in direct collaboration with Gavin Lurssen and Reuben Cohen of the renowned Lurssen Mastering, Inc. in Los Angeles, this isn’t just another collection of plugins. It’s a faithful recreation of their entire mastering philosophy, workflow, and signal chain, giving you unprecedented access to the secrets behind their sought-after sound.
Get That “Record-Ready” Polish, Instantly
Stop guessing and start mastering with confidence. The Lurssen Mastering Console demystifies the process by providing 40 unique “Styles”—mastering templates crafted by Gavin Lurssen’s team to perfectly suit your genre. Whether you produce hard-hitting hip-hop, dynamic rock, pristine pop, or cinematic soundscapes, these presets instantly configure the entire processing chain for you.
Simply load your track, choose a Style like “Pop Rock” or “Americana,” and hear your music immediately come to life. These aren’t generic settings; they are the proven starting points used on real-world records, giving you a professional foundation in seconds.
Master with the Philosophy of an Expert
The Lurssen sound is built on a “whole is greater than the sum of its parts” philosophy. Instead of piecing together individual EQs and compressors, you get access to a complete, holistic mastering chain. This includes meticulously modeled tube and solid-state equalizers, limiters, de-essers, and compressors.
The magic is in the interaction. The Lurssen Mastering Console recreates the subtle connections and interplay between each piece of gear, right down to the schematics. This unique approach gives you more than just tools; it gives you the cohesive, powerful sound of a world-class, purpose-built mastering environment.
Intuitive Control for a Creative Workflow
While the complex science runs under the hood, your experience is streamlined and musical. The interface invites you to make broad, creative strokes, not get lost in endless parameters.
- Input Drive: Push your track’s level into the chain to find the sweet spot of color and saturation. Link the controls for perfect stereo balance or tweak them independently for creative effect.
- Five-Band EQ: Make targeted adjustments with a fixed-frequency paragraphic EQ, tuned for musical results.
- The “PUSH” Knob: This is the secret weapon. The PUSH knob allows you to subtly and uniformly “ride” the song’s dynamics, gently nudging the EQs to add excitement to a chorus or tame a verse. It’s an intuitive way to add that special “Lurssen magic” and energy to your masters.
Full automation capabilities mean you can record every move, allowing you to craft a master that breathes and moves with your music, from the quiet intro to the powerful final chorus.
Master in the Studio, Test in the Real World
Consistency is key to a great master. Your track needs to sound incredible everywhere—from club systems and car stereos to earbuds and laptop speakers. The Lurssen Mastering Console offers unparalleled flexibility to ensure your music translates perfectly.
Available for Mac/PC as a standalone application or as a VST, AU, and AAX plugin, it integrates seamlessly into your studio workflow. But the ecosystem extends to your pocket. With the universal iPhone/iPad app, you can transfer your projects and test them in real-world listening environments. Start a master in your DAW, then check it on the go to hear exactly how it will perform in the wild.
