NUGEN Audio Producer Bundle
NUGEN Audio Producer Bundle is a paid mix and mastering suite for macOS and Windows, listed from $499 one-time. It contains nine plug-ins: Paragon ST, MasterCheck, Stereoizer, Monofilter, Visualizer, ISLst, SEQ-ST, Stereoplacer, and SigMod.

Paragon ST includes modulation and stereo-width controls. Stereoizer widens mono or stereo recordings while retaining mono compatibility, and Monofilter aligns low frequencies. MasterCheck compares masters across platforms and helps account for encoding artifacts. Visualizer assists with identifying production issues. SigMod provides twelve signal-modification units that can be arranged in any order. Formats are 64-bit AAX, VST3, AU, and AudioSuite. Minimum requirements are Mac OSX 10.9 with 512 MB RAM or Windows 7 with 512 MB RAM. Demos run fully for 15 days.
