Matchering as Plugin?

basementmedia2 opened this issue · comments

Hi,

i love Matchering but it would be so great, if you could use it as a plugin in the masterbus of the daw.
I use Linux and Mixbus 32 Software. Is this planned in the future?

Best wishes
Daniel

Hello, Daniel! Thank you for your feedback. Its a great idea! But:

  1. I don't have C++ / audio plugins creation skills, so I don't have such plans..
  2. But any C++ plugin developer can fork this repo and create such plugin under GPLv3 license
  3. BUT 😀 The current algorithm is very dependent on all track data being available at once. Plugins usually only have access to a small buffer of audio data, which is not good in this case. For example, in Ozone Matching EQ, you need to listen to several parts of both tracks in real time and only then it will adjust the equalizer. And I don't know an elegant way to get around it. Since matchering has access to all the audio at once, It selects the desired parts of the music tracks and compares them instantly.
