Description
Lurssen Mastering Console puts you at the controls in the studio with all of the secret tools, settings and techniques of world renowned multi-GRAMMY Award winning mastering engineer Gavin Lurssen and his team. Now you can master your music on the go on your iPhone/iPad and get the professional, Grammy award-winning sound that the studio is known for. Pop, rock, hip-hop and more, Lurssen Mastering Console can help you achieve amazing mastering results when a trip to Los Angeles just isn’t in the budget.

Lurssen Mastering Console is a totally unique and new approach to digital audio mastering. It's designed to help you capture the magic of the Lurssen Mastering studio’s entire mastering audio processing philosophy. Instead of giving you just a collection of individual processors and presets, Lurssen Mastering Console provides you with models of the complete mastering gear processor chain as a whole. The interactions between the individual processors have been digitally recreated which recreates the synergistic "whole is greater than the sum of its parts" sound that has earned Gavin and Lurssen Mastering multiple Grammys.

With Lurssen Mastering Console, you have automatic access to a lifetime's worth of professional audio mastering experience. It helps you quickly get great sounding results thanks to its 40 pre-made "Styles" templates, which have been created and optimized by Gavin Lurssen, mastering engineer Reuben Cohen and the rest of the team. These templates reflect decades of combined mastering experience and fit a broad range of musical genres.

Using Lurssen Mastering couldn't be easier: Just create a project, load a song, then select an appropriate "Style" from the drop-down menu. Take control via an Input Drive knob and a five band EQ as well as a "PUSH" knob, which lets you subtly and uniformly nudge the EQs so you can "ride" the flow of the song and add that special Lurssen "magic" to your music. You can view and automate changes to the two knobs by using the waveform display with three different automation modes. You can make adjustments to EQ settings and save those as presets for easy recall — a preset consists of a style plus your adjustments. You can also view the physical gear chain and make subtle adjustments via the Chain view. When you've finished your mastering work, you can export your song to File Sharing, SoundCloud and more in a variety of popular file formats for final distribution and delivery.

With the Lurssen Mastering Console you can easily master audio with your iPhone/iPad while on the go.

Does Not Work

It asks me to register every time I open the app going through the process of putting in the username and serial number and then crashes as soon as I try to import a song. I have never been able to load a song so this app is completely broken and useless. Multiple users in the review section are saying the same thing going back a year or more. The developer needs to fix this app. I would expect more from IK especially at this price point.

Sounds really good with some caveats

I really like how this sounds and I will say, the better your mix is, the better the master. I like what this app does to the sound. I do wish there was a little more visual representation like a gonometer, multimeter, or even just a LUFs meter. It would provide some assurance that the levels are where they need to be without having to export the file to a DAW and checking it there. OR just make it an AUV3 so we can do metering in the DAW.

I know IK is better than this!

I’m a big fan and daily user of IK’s plugins. I have T-Racks, Amplitube, Sampletank, etc… I own the Lurssen Mastering Console plugin that is supposed to give a app version and it just won’t work correctly! Maybe I’m not the smartest donut in the box but I’ve registered this app at least 10 times and it still will ask me to purchase it randomly! Like it would fry my socks if it’s this difficult to keep an app authorized on a mobile device especially Apple at that. Just make it make sense for me somehow… Did I go wrong somewhere?

Please update!

When can consumers expect a new update from this fabulous app? And if IK consider lowering the price a little bit... a lot of people would buy it.

App Doesn’t Work Anymore

PLEASE UPDATE THIS APP CRASHES EVERYTIME I TRY TO LOAD A SONG!

Ripped off and just found out this app hasn’t been updated in over 4 years!

Well, I do things the way that they are supposed to be done and I still keep getting punished for it. I agree with my wife when she is wrong and won’t stop her ranting until I can’t stand it and just want another subject to talk about. I pay my bills. I help my children even now that they are grown and are too proud to admit they need help. I do things to help them before they can’t see it and teach them to learn and avoid making common mistakes before they build up and become a costly and time consuming burden to fix. I am wanting to get a better sound from my music and figured surely since I’d end up paying over $150 to unlock the full potential of this app. I thought to myself that the app is well put to together with the graphics and these features must surely be a good sign that paying over $150 ( pretty much paid $170 rounded to nearest dollar) that I had finally found an app to give my own original music those finishing touches to really make the song sound professionally mastered that would sound just as good as the app looks visually. I read the user manual, I have purchased two options to allow me to do some final mixing and make these songs have the crispy edges and deep, impactful transients with a longer attack to make the percussion have varying fluttered beats and make the kick drums feel like they are right there next to and the almost actually feeling the compression and pulses from the kick pedal pounding the drum . I am done reading the user manual and pull up the browser menu to search for my songs, and when I clicked the button to open a folder that contains my songs, it crashes every time. I know I’ve reading the manual again and it crashes. This app is trying to have some credibility based on an audio engineer’s legacy of being a master of his craft and IK Multimedia hasn’t even updated this app since 2018. For some reason the app is still advertising on the App Store and hasn’t been quality tested since Trump was two years into his presidency. They still force you to pay before you will be “allowed access” to other features. But guess what? Access will not be permitted since the developers are obviously laughing at how insane the prices for these In App Purchases are, and still haven’t been able to actually do anything that was said I would be able to do AFTER SPENDING OVER $150! I’m insulted and I feel like the developers should either remove this non-responsive $150 money stealing app and give me a refund since I do want to do the right things the right way. I want a refund because there was nothing to warn me about this app . Honestly is a shame that I saved up some money for something to invest into my music and feel like someone kicked me in the gut and I paid over $150 for it. Because if I learned anything from buying stuff priced this high on a desktop computer, I have learned that since pricey purchases always guarantee that I made a wise choice. Except I’m this case. The developers take your money and then neglect the app for another 4 years while other idiots don’t look for themselves ahead of time and see this warning that this app only does 2 thing. Take your money eagerly while telling you that otherwise, without paying more than $150, you won’t be able to do squat with this app except look like an idiot . Crash suddenly every time you try to open browser folder to find a song to master like this app claims it can do, even though they are neglecting to perform any quality testing like other developers that that actually have pride in their products that they sell for over 3 times the cost for profit since they are giving you the opportunity to make your music sound like you paid a premium for a garbage product that my ten year nephew would show more concern about if it was his creation. I want my $179 that is a total of what I paid to unlock the HD engine and have browser access to load my music, and then get infuriated when it crashes on me after setting up the project name and settings. Then loading the app again to the dread that I will not have any progress saved after saving the settings and the trying to load my music and do what I paid $179 to be able to do. If Apple can’t refund me, I’m taking this to court. Someone is stealing from people that are going through hard times, and think that every app on The App Store is guaranteed to be 100% functioning and able to be given the paid access to even hear a preview of the sound file I want to load. $179 and I can’t even hear or get a measly demonstration from the app. RIPOFF!!! I want a refund NOW! Did I mention. The developer told me to seek a refund from Apple and that Apple refused to refund me my money? I should have bought a new MIDI controller, instead!
