Included Plug-Ins
Precision Multiband
The Precision Multiband is a specialized mastering tool that provides five spectral bands of dynamic range control. Ideal for anything from complex dynamics control to simple de-essing, the Precision Multiband’s Compression, Expansion, or Gate can be chosen separately for each of the five bands, while its easy-to-use interface make it the ideal tool for the novice, as well as the seasoned mastering engineer.
Precision EQ
The Precision EQ plug-in is a stereo or dual mono four-band equalizer and high-pass filter made primarily for use with program material. Modeled on the behavior of real-world analog mastering filters, the Precision EQ uses the classic parametric controls arrangement. To preserve the greatest sonic detail and ensure a minimum of artifacts in the upper frequency range, the Precision EQ is up-sampled to 192kHz.
Precision Limiter
The Precision Limiter plug-in is a single-band, look-ahead brickwall limiter made primarily for use with program material. This intuitive plug-in achieves 100% attack within a 1.5ms look-ahead window, which prevents clipping, and guarantees zero overshoot performance. Both the attack and release curves are optimized for professional mastering, which minimizes aliasing. The Precision Limiter also features comprehensive, high-resolution metering, and conforms to Bob Katz's "K-system" metering specs. This metering allows the user to see what is happening to audio with a great deal of accuracy.
“From forensics to glorious sound-shaping, UA’s Precision Mastering plug-ins are just indispensable to the way I work.”

Works well in a processing chain for Voiceover and master bus. Adds a nice warmth when driven which is what we use it for. Kind of like a fancy saturator but for €99 it’s worth the...

This thing sounds incredible, even though you can't "hear" it due to its incredible transparency. I am still learning my way around all of the controls but just the "Big Smile" preset alone makes this thing worth every penny. Glues a mix together. Gives vocals a certain realness. An all-around fantastic piece of digital kit that does what it says on the box.

Awesome!
For those of us who are just starting to Master, this bundle is very simple to use and with a meter on your chain, can get the clarity and loudness you are looking for
S. Wiese
This is the gold. Not suitable for live use though.
Of all of the multi-band compressors I have used this is genuinely the best for mixing in post! The latency is really long when you use it so it can not be used live, which is quite unfortunate. That being said I used it extensively for both compression and gating. Compressing mostly on buses and mastering but he ability to get this precise with a gate has been a game changer for cleaning up live spoken word.
4 stars only because of the inability to use live. As far as the sound goes it could be 5+ stars.J. Migchelsen

Adds glue tot youre mix!

Final track
This limiter has become my standard for the final mix insert on my output from my daw. It keeps everything in check and has a few useful presets.
H. Torres
Amazing on master bus
This multiband compressor is amazing at glue duties on the master bus. Really adds clarity to elements and makes the track sound professional. Just note it is not meant to be placed on regular tracks as it adds significant latency. This is best suited for mastering or on auxes while working with high buffer settings.

Another Go-To!!
Clean, High Headroom, standard Compression…

We call This The Standard or Old-Faithful…
At our studio we use all the Precision line for all kinds of things. Great series of plug-ins! Can’t go wrong

Precision limiter a precise plug in
The sound of this plug in is perfect, it improves the detail by highlighting the peculiarities of the sound. Consequently I often use it also on the voice at the bottom of the plug-in chain in order to highlight the detail with excellent quality.

Great sounding multi band for mastering but with latency problems and high demanding into the cores and cpu

This totally caught me by surprise...
Wow I did not expect that I would enjoy this plugin so much. I just wanted a limiter to put on my master bus temporarily. My plan was to jsut have something there that would prevent clipping, and then as a last step, I would replace it with a "better" limiter. I rarely find it necessary to replace this. Its stupid simple, but I think thats what makes it great. I love that it doesn't take up much screen space. I loge the meter. And i love that I dont get stuck tweaking a bunch of nonsense parameters. This thing is a limiter. And its transparent. Thats it. Don't get fooled by other limiters that have fancier UIs and tons of parameters- all of that is unnecessary.
