Slate Digital has announced the release of VIRTU - a new web-based assisted mastering service for ALL Access Pass members that claims to make it easy for anyone to achieve a polished, professional master.

According to the press release, VIRTU takes the guesswork out of mastering with the help of curated Style profiles and easy-to-use Advanced Controls. Users upload their mix, select the style that best fits their track, and pick their loudness target. There’s also the option to adjust some more advanced controls, like the frequency balance, compression and stereo width of the master. 

Once happy with the selections, clicking ‘Master’ will process the entire track, which can then be downloaded from the library, where it will stay for 30 days. These masters can be distributed to streaming platforms like Spotify and Apple Music, tested in clubs or other live settings, as well as making useful references for professional mastering engineers.

VIRTU is available exclusively as part of Slate Digital’s All Access Pass. If you’re not already a member you can join or start a free 30-day trial today which will allow you to experience VIRTU and the rest of Slate Digital’s full plugin suite, plus professional mix templates, over 20 GB of boutique samples, and hours of educational content in Slate Academy.
