Soren
Soren is a standalone app for automated audio mastering, not a DAW plugin. Its Mix Agent analyzes mixes before mastering and suggests changes for tonal imbalance and resonances. Users can choose among 10 genre profiles and 27 curated Smart References, or upload a reference track for analysis of spectral balance, dynamics, and tonal qualities. Controls include spectral and stereo processing toggles, custom LUFS targeting, and safeguards against over-processing. Export formats are WAV at 44.1 or 48 kHz in 16 or 24 bit, and MP3 at 320 or 256 kbps, with three True Peak limiting options. Processing happens locally; the maker says internet access is not needed after initial online activation. Desktop requirements are macOS 12 or higher or Windows 10/11, with at least 8 GB RAM recommended. The page lists support for files up to 90 minutes on Apple Silicon M1 with 16 GB RAM, and says Soren is available for iPhone and iPad. A free trial is available, and pricing starts at €249.
