For the first time, Howie Weinberg opens the doors of his studio to bring you the benefit of his 30+ years of elite mastering experience in an exciting new plugin. Don’t miss the opportunity to take your music to the next level thanks to the workflow and closely-guarded mastering chain of one of the world’s most sought-after pro audio gurus.

What You Get

HWMC Howie Weinberg Mastering Console features six different sections:

C: A β€œCoral-style” mastering tube compressor with 4 different switchable compressor operating modes, which depends on the rectifier circuit emulations selected (GERM, GERM2, SILIC or LED)
E: A β€œScarlet-style” parametric stereo mastering EQ with LF/MF, HF/MF bands offering Β±9dB gain.
F: High and low shelf filters, plus continuously variable high-pass (20Hz - 20kHz) and low-pass (20Hz - 30kHz) mastering cutting filters with a 12dB per octave slope, implemented to Weinberg’s exact specifications.
L: An ultra-transparent, algorithmic brickwall limiter with oversampling rate buttons (1x, 4x, and 8x).
ADC: A clipping stage that includes 3 different models ranging from least to most aggressive (C1, C2, C3), created from the sampling of Howie Weinberg’s various analog-to-digital converters. Controllable via the clipper knob and the oversampling rate buttons (1x, 4x, 8x).
DAC: A preamp stage including 3 modes from the sampling of different digital-to-analog converters (DCS, Mytek, Mytek+Tape), effectively reproducing Weinberg’s signature sound.

To top it all off, this plugin also comes with a series of additional controls, including control link, M/S - LR, HQ, dim buttons, a complete meter section, and a series of routing buttons/functions enabling you to change the plugin’s internal routing.

Check out the manual's β€œOperation” chapter for more details.

Sorry I miss read for some reason when I typing my reply I thought you said you use over killers. But I think we can both agree the A/D is stellar. The D/A we can agree to have differing opinions. With that said I'm not saying the d/a is bad cuz I use it it daily. But I think we can agree it is old chips and there's better out there.

There are obviously 'better' convertors out there than PRISM (technically) but.. as I never said to use overkillers? If you are then you're doing it way wrong anyway. Clipping should be that, hard clip, the overkillers are NOT great and I never use them for anything.

Prism is more than fine, thank you, for 99% of people making modern music both A/D and D/A... and does it in a very pleasing way (inc the conversion itself) vs higher spec specialists ones with a 'sound' like the Burl (which some may prefer but I don't). Either way, point was anything around Prism level or above should be fine for clipping, but I wouldn't try it on a $300 interface was my point.

Yeah lol. If you send a -14 lufs master to a record label they will say what the fuck are you doing and send it back

That -14 lufs BS has spread so much that all the noobs follow the rule and get shait on by professional songs and lil timmies get rekt when comparing their tracks to the big ones.
just for example one the most ridiculous pop songs of last year was ed sheeran - celestial,
momentary loudness -2.0 lufs
max short term loudness -2.8 lufs
integrated loudness -4.1 lufs

kids gonna believe what social media influencers say with that -14 bs
i see that crap atleast once a week on instagram.

I master arroud -13/ -12 for streaming and -8/-9 for bandcamp and Radio . Whats your view on trusting streaming services to compress your audio from -6 to -14?

-14 is a playback limit, not a processing limit

It's one of the weirdest misconceptions in the audio industry, this -14 "target". Bizarre stuff
  Member 28.11.2016 981

Exactly, if you mix/master well to competitive LUFS it won't matter one bit that spotify turn it down to -14 (or Apple/YT etc) just like it does with other pro releases... but IF they disable that (the user) or you hear the wav/CD etc you're gonna sound mighty stupid having your master at -14 LUFS (on most rock/pop/EDm etc... obviously classical might be different)

I'm sorry that happened to you. [hug]

We can probably blame Ian Shepherd for this mess

And then certain plugin developers for perpetuating the myth (Master The Mix, and some others that created the -14 target as some sort of goal in their plugin)

-7 LUFS Integrated ? for real ?

I only do -9 to -11 but that's not even count as mastering. Just proper volume for mix review but already sound like a pancake to me, all the time i've spent on creating the depth half of it gone. That's why I prefer the client to get it mastered someplace else, preferably the one that know what they are doing. So my mix will sound better.

pancake as in all the details gone. of course the mix can be slapped to -3LUFS even, but still all the details gone, all the stuff in the back comes forward and the mix will sound flat like most electronic music. all the music I work with, all the reference, not a single one of them is -7LUFS in the genre I work with. it's not electronic music though. 200 mixes + sent to mastering engineer, not a single one come back at -7LUFS and not a single complaint about loudness nor it had problems competing in a playlist and feel less louder. I guess it's differs depends on where you are at the music you work and genre too. I work with major label subsidiaries. they wont dump stuff at me if im doing something wrong, just sayin.

So in your opinion there is no limiting (cruching peaks) or compressing from streaming platforms ? They just down the volume to -14 ? so whats the point? im not saying you are wrong, just want to clarify
  Banned 14.08.2023 16

if you song has a low max short term and
integrated loudness to begin with compared to top song, it's gonna sound weaker after being leveled to -14 lufs, and it would sound like a -20 lufs beside a top production

The point is to make playlists sound consistent volume-wise

it wont be consistent, even if it matches it to -14.

Incorrect. You need to actually try a plugin to form an opinion

Not for musicians.

Thank you R2R and all, though I'm going to skip Acustica. I get the feeling all Acustica plugins are all show and no go. The UI's do not even look scalable. Plenty of much better smaller fish in the pirate see for example PSPaudioware would better these.

PSP average is superior, obviously

But in some cases AA plugs are interesting, for me Salt is pretty good and Fire The Pump is a surprise, very usable in certain situations

I am damn curious about Ash, El Rey and Purple. I used to have Aqua legit app but never started demoing those, always said "will do soon..." : ) but now can't say NO to R2R!

It seems like modern masters are way too hot, I had a friend who had an EP mastered by Howie Weinberg and I hated it. I was surprised, he is one of those famous mastering engineers that is mentioned in the same breath as Clearmountain and Ludwig, and yet I felt ear fatigue after only a minute at reasonable volume. I don't know much about mastering, but I know when a record sounds good. Sometimes, I get the impression that mastering engineers are making things hotter than they themselves would like.
