In today's video, I will show you how to master a song using just one plugin! We're ditching the AI and diving into some good ol' creative decisions with Musik Hack's Master Plan Mastering plugin, and keep the process quick, and simple.
I'll also spill my process on getting that right mastering loudness, so you can get a loud, and transparent master using Master Plan's powerful "Loud" feature.
Whether you use Master Plan or your own mastering plugins, you will definitely enjoy this video.

Band monitoring is really cool too... For really checking on your mids. There are some really amazing engineers that use that approach where they feel that you have to nail the mix in the mids to really get a good mix.
Thanks Chris for your expertise demo. I’ve been using Master Plan now for about a month and it’s consistently pushing out some masters that’s sounding Lit!!!! This little baby has replaced my mastering chain. It actually depends on the mix and material. Every now and then I might have to go to my old 100 plugin chain but for the majority it’s Master Plan.
hey great video, a little bonus tipp, sam the developer of the plugin is working on improvements i tested his beta for the updcoming release and it gets even better so maybe when the new version is released you should keep an eye on that plugin again :)
Thank you! Always working on improvements 💪

Thanks for the info!
Wonderful plugin! ❤
Nice plugin, now I have to try it , thanks bro, kudos 👊🏻
Here for this free knowledge. Thank you sir. All the way from South Africa. 🇿🇦🔥
Yo this plug in is fire 🔥
So cool, for someone like me (music is just my hobby) this could help a lot, just one knob, and couple of tweaks and thats it
Really good plugin! 👍😎
Amazing plugin ..thank you for this
Of course! Glad you like it!
Impressive. Would like to hear your thoughts on Master Plan vs God Particle.
Thanks for this - is it possible to set the true peak level so it never exceeds say -1.00 regardless of the amount of loudness?
This is a very useful feature in FabFilter Pro L 2.
Perfect tnx 👏👏👏👏🫶🫶
Maybe interesting to note, I’m mixing a live performance with guitar and vocals so I downloaded a reference track from Apple music. The track sounds amazing but has over 10 true peaks of +0.4 also there was no low pass or high cut filtering used. I was surprised by this. If it sounds great then it is great right.
Always go for a amazing sound that is loud and sounds great with some decent amount of dynamic range. Whatever tools are being used and misused to get there doesn’t matter, over 25 db compression on a vocal can really work. Mixbus compression limiters anything goes with me with whatever crazy settings sometimes just to make it sound awesome, that’s the only goal 😊
Hey Chris! Great video thank you, Can you please explain Replace Audio in Video setting in the new Cubase 13? There is not even 1 video tutorial regarding it on the internet. Bests,
Merci ça aide beaucoup et moitié prix 🏆 en plus
Bienvenue, mon ami!
This is the best Master Plan video I’ve seen
Thank you! I'm glad it was helpful!
Well done, great video.
Thank you!
Thanks Chris your page really inspire me to push my new youtube page, I have only 4 subscribers but step by step right :-) thanks for this information, I just decided to get this plugin now 🙂
Could I use this in my project in the Master buss, keeping it disabled until I need to mix and master so I don’t have to export a stereo mix, just kinda cut out that export since everything is right there anyway? I just write and record for myself, not any big recording session or anything. Record, mix and master, right in the same project.
hi chris sir can i use cubase 13 pro on more than one of my pc
Think I’ll buy this it seems to really make it loud but the clarity is still there
Do you clip on your master or main out bus when you take of Unity when pushing the volume to -9 LUFS-S?
Hello there.
I am using Cubase elements 12 and I am hoping to expand my existing sound library.
It has been suggested in the forums that I download AI kontakt 7 free version. I assume that it has a sound library within it.
Secondly I am hoping to import the Alesis quadrasynth S4 library to use in cubase.
Am I going about this the right way?
Or will the halion player accept a new library and be able to play the sounds.
I hope that you are the relevant person to ask.
Thank you 😊
If I hadn't spent a serious amount of money on my mastering chain I'd maybe consider this for a quick master for clients prior to a real mastering job. But I do agree that it sounds pretty good for as simple it is. But then again it's been used on a good mix. This probably wouldn't work for bad mixes where major surgery is needed. Not enough on the EQ side of it...
Probably but if your mix isn’t good then you shouldn’t master it anyway.
I would go back to the board 😉
Same as mixing a bad recording. Get the recording right, mix after :-)
I usually split my masters between two limiters. Would you use this limiter as a last plugin in a mastering chain? Or maybe follow this up with a Fabfilter L2?
I do the same thing, even with this one, I use it before the L2 for even better results
@15:50 realize that Pro L2 will be on the bottom list now and use more MasterPlan Loud knob as final limiter.
Glad you like it!
You are welcome.
int Lufs needs to analyse all the song, instead the meter shows a quicker response, and the int and short Lufs have the same values...normally the more dense part of the song, chorus for example, could have short Lufs value a bit harder then integrated one, but it have the same values...bug
Any simple and fast AI mastering , today?
It already sounded mastered pre-Master Plan. :) My ears are old I guess.
Since I mixed the song, its a nice compliment, thanks :-)
It is :)@@mixdownonline
Don't hear a difference
Phone speaker?
Your Pro L2 settings are a disgrace my friend
LOL, Ok!
Really, SM7b and your speaking over the top of it by the way it looks and sounds….not really setting a good example of using a mic properly, or am I being unfairly pedantic?
Lol, when I film a video, I don't like having a big SM7b covering my face. So I place it so it sounds good, and look good on video :-) I usually don't use this mic on my UA-cam videos
@@mixdownonline try an AKG 202E, or for small and thin Sennheiser ME36…..
Well in the interest of pedantry you should probably spell "you're" correctly... and put a space after your ellipses (which should be 3 periods, not 4).
