TRACE — AI Mix Analysis Plugin
Read the Mix. Own the Result.
AI mix analysis plugin. Scans transient structure, frequency balance, and dynamic range — then suggests gain staging, EQ starting points, and compression approach. In plain language. Professional AI-powered audio analysis interface for studio environments. Real-time spectrum analysis, intelligent mixing recommendations, and 100% local processing — no cloud, no compromises.
32-band frequency analysis with smooth animations
Four reads. One picture of your mix.
Transient Analysis
Maps attack and release profiles across every element in your mix. Tells you exactly what's punching too hard, what's disappearing, and where phase is killing your low end.
Frequency Balance
Compares your spectral energy against professional reference curves. Pinpoints the exact band that's masking your vocal, dulling your kick, or washing out your mix bus.
Dynamic Range
Reads crest factor, LUFS, and gain staging headroom in real time. Suggests compression ratios and threshold positions — not settings to copy, starting points to understand.
Local Processing
Zero audio sent to the cloud. TRACE runs fully on your machine. What you mix stays with you. Always.
Not just data. A diagnosis.
TRACE translates signal analysis into plain-language recommendations. No menus. No acronyms. Just a clear read on what your mix needs — and why.
Low-mid buildup detected at 280–400 Hz
Your mix is 4.2 dB heavy in this range. Try a gentle cut on the rhythm guitars or room mics — this is where mud lives.
Kick transient competing with snare attack
Both elements peak within 8 ms of each other at 3–5 kHz. A short attack on the kick bus compressor should carve space for the snare snap.
Gain staging is healthy — headroom looks good
Master bus reading –14 LUFS integrated. Crest factor of 10.2 dB. You have room to push the limiter harder without sacrificing punch.
Low-frequency energy is off-center
Sub content below 80 Hz shows phase correlation of 0.62. Mono-sum your bass elements — this will translate better on club systems.
↑ Example output. Real recommendations are generated from your actual session audio — in real time.

Your audio never leaves your machine.
Every analysis TRACE runs happens on your CPU — in your DAW, inside your session. There is no server, no upload, no API call. The AI model ships with the plugin binary.
This isn't a privacy policy. It's the architecture. TRACE physically cannot send your audio anywhere — because it never reaches a network interface in the first place.
Zero audio upload
Audio never leaves your DAW. TRACE reads the signal in-process — nothing is written to disk or sent over a network.
No account required
Load the plugin and start. No login, no license server ping, no telemetry. It just works — offline included.
Runs fully offline
Once installed, TRACE has no network dependencies. No subscription checks, no phoning home, no internet required.
Your session, your data
Every analysis is ephemeral. TRACE reads the signal in real time and discards it. There is no session log, no analysis history stored anywhere but on your machine.
Runs in your DAW. Your machine.
One-time. No subscription. No cloud.
Buy it once. Use it forever. Updates included.
