1-2-3, Mastered
In three quick steps, the bx_masterdesk Classic plug-in will give you a professional-sounding master. First, turn up the Volume control. Next, set the Foundation knob to adjust the low end, and finally, tweak the Tone knob to season the source to taste. Refine even further with one-knob solutions like Stereo Enhance to add width, and THD to inject grit and character.
Visual Feedback
There's a fine line between making a master loud, and overly squashing its dynamic range, and with many of the mastering plug-ins on the market, it’s easy to overdo it. But thanks to the large, centrally located Dynamic Range meter on bx_masterdesk Classic, you can always keep a watchful eye, so you’ll know to apply just the right amount of loudness.
Mastering for Many
In today’s competitive music and content world, there are numerous situations beyond just album production where it’s handy to quickly and effectively master a project yourself. Whether you’re a mixer sending roughs to a client, a band sending a demo to a label or promoter, or a composer submitting a TV or film cue; having a fast, easy and powerful mastering solution like the bx_masterdesk Classic plug-in gives your creations a professional advantage.

Too Loud
Even at the lowest recommended, a nasty loud master. No elegance or grace just loud. Good for Youtube. MS is great but seriously course loudness. That's all I can say...big horrible loud masters..

Love this mastering plug in because even when you're not quite a pro (but even better if so) you will ne able to put some punch to your mix and bring some details to the stereofield. Play with the "sound" knob and change the upper frequency band to bring in crisp or determinate too much highs with lowering the lvl. Only a few things you can change - nothing more is needed most of the time (I confess to use the precision multiband in the mastering chain too).

a fast solution to send AR tests tracks
dial it in, and you get a rough punch to get happy non tech label people.

I needed a simple mastering plug-in, then i found this
I needed a mastering plug-in, so I can set better volumes on my recordings.
This simple plug-in was more than i've been looking for. I love the stereo enchancer option. And it delivers a good sound for your demos.A. Heinzelmann
Hot Tool
The bx-masterdesk Classic is a very good Tool for Mastering my Mixes for a first audition with my clients.
S. Debontridder
Instant mastering magic!
This plugin is pure gold. I'm no mastering expert by any stretch (which is why I need a plugin like this one in the first place), but this just sounds so much better than Ozone on my mixes. Way more transparent while being louder at the same time. Good stuff!
