01, The problem

Mixes lie
to tired ears.

After four hours, everything sounds right. Which is exactly when you make most of your decisions.

01, The problem

Three meters.
Three answers.

LUFS in one plugin, true peak in another, correlation in a third, and every one of them measures slightly differently.

02, The idea

One dashboard.
One truth.

SCAN/X gathers roughly 25 tools onto five pages, pure pass-through, bit-identical, always the last plugin in the chain.

03, The goal

Measured against
a target.

Genre targets with LUFS values and a tonal goal curve, a reference slot for real A/B, your mix against what it's supposed to become.

04, The result

It tells you
what to do.

A score out of 100 and concrete sentences with the remedy attached, criticism you can act on.

How it works

[ THREE MOVES ]
01
Scan

See everything at once.

Five pages, roughly 25 tools, spectrum, loudness, stereo, dynamics, sorted instead of stacked. Each page answers one question properly; nothing fights for the same pixels.

02
Compare

Measure against a goal.

Genre targets plus a reference slot, your mix drawn over the target curve, every meter judging against it. A/B against a track you trust, not against a feeling.

03
Act

Get told what to do.

A score out of 100, then concrete sentences with the remedy attached, too loud for the target, bass not mono, dynamics too small. Criticism you can act on.

One verdict

25 tools. Zero guessing.

EBU R128 loudness, 4×-oversampled true peak, correlation per frequency, goniometer, dynamics, one dashboard, one verdict. And none of it changes the sound: SCAN/X is pure pass-through, it measures the master without ever joining it.

Signal path

Looks at everything. Touches nothing.

FFT and loudness run in parallel to the untouched signal, analysis taps the stream, the stream never notices. The output is bit-identical to the input, every sample, every time. The only thing SCAN/X changes is what you know.

00, Live

This is the real SCAN/X.

Not a render, not a mockup, the actual prototype, measuring away in your browser right now. Keep scrolling and we'll walk you through it, instrument by instrument.

01, Targets

Measure against a goal.

Six genre and streaming targets, each with its LUFS value and tonal curve, pick one and every meter on the page measures against it. A reference slot sits alongside for direct A/B against a track you trust.

02, Views

Five pages, one verdict.

OVERVIEW, LOUDNESS, SPECTRUM, STEREO, DYNAMICS, roughly 25 tools, sorted instead of stacked. Each page answers one question properly rather than all of them at once.

03, Spectrum

Your mix vs. the target.

Realtime and average curves drawn over the target's tonal profile, peak hold in accent red. Where your master drifts from the goal, the gap is right there on screen, deviations jump out before you reach for an EQ.

04, Stereo

Width, phase, balance.

Goniometer, correlation with its recent history, stereo width per frequency band and tonal balance, one row, four truths. If the low end isn't mono, this is where you find out.

05, Loudness

The numbers that ship.

Integrated, Short-Term, Momentary, LRA, True-Peak, PLR, EBU R128 as standard equipment, not an afterthought. These are the figures the streaming platform will compute anyway; SCAN/X just shows them first.

06, Diagnosis

It tells you what to do.

A score out of 100, then concrete sentences: too loud for the target, bass not mono, dynamics too small, each with its remedy attached. Criticism you can act on, not just nod at.

Signature features

[ EIGHT ]
01
Five pages
From Overview to Dynamics, roughly 25 tools, sorted instead of stacked. Each view gets the space to answer one question properly, instead of all of them at once.
02
Spectrum vs target
Realtime and average curves drawn over the target's tonal profile. Where your master drifts from the goal, the gap is on screen before you reach for an EQ.
03
EBU R128 suite
Momentary, Short-Term and Integrated loudness, LRA and PLR, the full broadcast standard, measured continuously. The numbers the streaming platform will compute anyway, shown first.
04
True-peak everywhere
4× oversampled inter-sample peak detection in every meter that touches level. The overs your converter would produce, caught before they exist.
05
Gonio + correlation
Goniometer plus a correlation meter with its recent history, not just where the phase stands right now, but where it has been drifting.
06
Width per frequency
Stereo width split per frequency band, see where the mix is genuinely wide, and where the low end secretly isn't mono.
07
Dynamics page
PSR and PLR, crest factor and a level histogram, one page that shows how much life is left in the master, and how much the limiter already took.
08
Diagnosis engine
A score out of 100 and concrete findings in plain language, too loud for the target, bass not mono, dynamics too small, each with its remedy attached.

Real workflows

[ USE CASES ]
01
Pre-master check
Before the export, one last pass: pick the target, let every meter judge against it, and watch all of it go green once before the file leaves the studio.
02
Reference A/B
Load a snapshot of a track you trust, then read the deviation instead of guessing it, spectrum gap, loudness gap, width gap, all in numbers.
03
Mix health monitor
Parked on the master bus from day one of the mix. Pure pass-through, bit-identical, it watches the whole production and never joins it.
"The diagnosis line said exactly what my mastering engineer told me a week later. For 89 euros."
