Hello to all guests, I would like to present you some information about the project which has a perspective to become a revolution in the audio industry. This project is created for automatic music perfection or/and mastering sound. We have a prototype of it, it is quite a complicated algorithm, which takes much time for design. At present time we try to find some investors for creation of a web site and vst plugin, which will be free for all musicians and audio lovers. Also we can do mastering for any money which you can pay for it, just for promotion. You can have a look at some short examples (original mix vs auto redesigned sound) here:
