Softsynth and FX denizen, Rob Papen, has launched a low-cost mastering plugin called MasterMagic.
With simplicity very much the main ethos behind the plugin, MasterMagic affords you a few basic controls, designed to make a “big difference to any mix.”
It’s as simple as inserting the effect at the end of your DAW FX chain, with the ‘Mono/Stereo’ module promising life, clarity and detail, while the AIR module ‘opens’ the mix overall.
MasterMagic is priced at $39/£33.95/€39 and more details and download links, including a free demo, can be found on the Time+Space website.
MasterMagic key features
- Silky AIR module which opens the overall sound
- Perfect ‘Mono/Stereo’ module which increases the quality of low end in your mix and the stereo spreading
- Easy to use and incredible results
- Free demo version available

I take care of the reviews on MusicRadar and Future Music magazine, though can sometimes be spotted in front of a camera talking little sense in the presence of real musicians. For the past 30 years, I have been unable to decide on which instrument to master, so haven't bothered. Currently, a lover of all things high-gain in the guitar stakes and never one to resist churning out sub-standard funky breaks, the likes of which you'll never hear.
