StudioZIO Mastering Suite

Summary

StudioZIO Mastering Suite is a free macOS mastering tool that brings tonal shaping, dynamics, stereo control, and delivery metering into one signal path. Its nine processing stages are M/S engine, saturation, Pink Match, glue, maximizer, tone EQ, clipper, limiter, and output. Pink Match listens for twenty seconds against a target curve and applies correction at a user-chosen amount. The limiter's true-peak detector uses 16× reconstruction, while the separate true-peak meters use 4×. Loudness measurements include integrated, short-term, and momentary LUFS, plus true peak in dBTP. The suite is available as Audio Unit, VST3, AAX, and a standalone application. It supports macOS 11 or later on Apple Silicon and Intel Macs, and the maker says AAX was validated in Pro Tools. The installer is Developer ID signed and Apple notarized; a SHA-256 checksum is published. Downloading and using the suite requires no licence key or account.
