Hi ladies and gentlemen of the greater plugin world. I just did my first testing of TM upon a middle-aged song whose mix sounded okay but a bit dated. It really worked deep wonders on it on the very first analysis and remix. That it works with a flexible approach to achieving the many varied masterings for modern formats is brilliant, and it can take much guesswork out of this formidable task.

I havenʻt yet gotten into exploring the "fine tuning" part of the process, but Iʻm eager to dive into this as well. Actually, I love the mere fact that TM can let me further tweak the personality of an already fine master. Guys and gals, this is a winner.

Upon loading in Unmask, I tried it on a number of mixes. My immediate experience is that it really does what it says, and is transparently effective on any well-recorded material.

Now the following may very well be because I am not yet completely familiar with Unmaskʻs parameters, so please keep this in mind. I used it on some mixes that, when I received them, contained certain seriously harsh and mic-overloaded high-end frequencies. Resolving this as best I could, my pre-mastered mixes weighed heavily on the lower end of the eq spectrum. Using Unmask only brought back the problem high end frequencies.

That being said, I plan on dropping Unmask upon the more reasonably recorded mixes whenever they appear. Highly recommended.
