Mastering with LANDR is simplicity itself. But before I get into the nitty-gritty, a little description of the site and the process is in order. Well, to cut to the chase for a moment, I was pleasantly surprised by the results on the two songs I tested it with.

So it was with a healthy dose of cynicism that I approached this review of LANDR's mastering services. The idea of applying an algorithm to what really is an art seems more like wishful thinking than practical approach-I've heard enough damage done by mastering “presets” than I'd care to remember. Now, I'm one of those engineers-and there are many of us-who's inherently skeptical about the whole idea of mastering (or any of the studio arts) as an automated process. They've just gone live with a new, improved version of their mastering algorithm, making this a good time to take look at the service.

LANDR's mastering is handled not by some guy in a back room, but by a sophisticated algorithm-an automated process-that not only determines the best application of processing for each file, but, reportedly, continually learns how to do it even better, the more tracks it works on (LANDR notes they've recently hit the one-million-served mark). The idea of uploading a track to be mastered remotely is not all that radical-people collaborate via the cloud all the time, and many top-drawer mastering engineers prefer to work without the client present-but the idea of having a computer algorithm handle the job is a little more surprising. LANDR is an online mastering service whose goal is to make mastering a quick and easy process, without any special knowledge required, and without compromising on quality.
