Magic Master 3.3: faster, more accurate, easier to use
One release with everything you asked for in feedback.
• Mastering got faster. The standard preset now processes a four-minute track in 24 seconds instead of 69 — nearly three times quicker. Progress used to stall at 85–90% because the limiter ran three full passes over the track at eight-times oversampling. The redundant passes are gone and the result is identical to the decibel.
• Presets hit the loudness they promise. If the card says −9 LUFS, that is what you get: worst deviation is now about 1 LU instead of 3.5. And one value applies everywhere — app, API and AI hints (Hip-Hop used to promise −13 while the API delivered −10).
• Loud sources no longer go dull. Tracks from Suno and Udio, or exports with a limiter on the master bus, used to get over-compressed: the midrange collapsed, the sound went boxy, the stereo image drifted. Level is now matched before compression, so tonality survives — and quiet tracks are untouched.
• All 23 presets are selectable. Trap, Pop, Rock, Metal, R&B, Country, Afrobeats, K-Pop and Jazz worked in the engine but could not be picked. They are back, and the cards are grouped into Genres, Voice, Character and Special.
• The AI assistant actually works now. It had been down after the provider retired our model and was silently answering from templates. It now reads your track's metrics and explains its choice: "crest factor 6.4 dB — the track is over-compressed, use AI Unlimiter". Auto-mastering got smarter too.
• The English interface is fully translated. 86 elements were still in Russian: batch processing, PRO modules, the request form and result buttons.
• The interface is easier to read. We raised the contrast of cards and muted text in both themes, unified the logo across all pages and fixed its proportions on narrow screens.
Thanks to everyone who leaves detailed feedback after a master — that is what started this work.
