ForgeDSP // Mix Analysis

See your mix. Then fix it.

A real-time analysis suite for FL Studio and any VST3 host: calibrated spectrum, true stereo and loudness metering, and a multi-track view that shows exactly where your tracks are masking each other — no sidechain wiring, no guesswork. Your audio passes through untouched.

The mixing-blind problem

You can hear something is wrong. You can’t see where.

✕ Mixing blind

✕ “Something sounds muddy” — but you can’t say where.
✕ Kick and bass fight for the same 80 Hz and you never see it.
✕ Bouncing to A/B in another tool, losing the flow every time.
✕ Your mix collapses in mono and you find out on the club system.
✕ Guessing at loudness, then getting a true-peak surprise at the limiter.

◆ With AuraScope

✓ Overlay every track on one graph — masking washes red in real time.
✓ A calibrated spectrum with Bass / Mids / Highs labelled, so you know where you are.
✓ Stereo status in words: OPTIMAL, NARROW, TOO WIDE / PHASE.
✓ Momentary / short-term / integrated loudness + true peak, before the limiter.
✓ No routing. Drop a Relay on each track, pick a group, read your mix.
What you get

The metering you check before you commit

Two plugins. One picture of your whole mix.

01 — The one people screenshot

Multi-track masking overlay.

Overlay the spectrum of every track in a group on one graph — kick, bass, vocal, lead — each with its own labelled chip in the legend. Where two or more tracks pile into the same frequencies, the overlap washes red so you can see masking happen in real time. This is the view that turns “something sounds muddy” into “the bass and the kick are both living at 80 Hz.”

◆ Clash flagged by shape + label, never color alone
02 — Spectrum

A spectrum you can actually read.

A log-scale frequency spectrum from 20 Hz to 20 kHz, with the bands labelled Bass / Mids / Highs so you always know where you’re looking. A tilt control lets you read it the way you actually hear it, and adjustable smoothing goes from fast and reactive to slow and readable. Freeze the display to study a moment; Snap saves a PNG.

Spectrum · 20 Hz – 20 kHz · tilt on
Bass · Mids · Highs, labelled
03 — Stereo & phase

Stereo health in words, not a glowing blob.

A goniometer and width/balance readout with a plain-language status. It tells you in words — OPTIMAL, NARROW, TOO WIDE / PHASE — so you know whether your stereo image is working or about to collapse in mono before you bounce. Every status is a word plus a shape, never color alone.

Stereo field · phase health
Optimal Width 78% Too wide / phase
Status is a word + shape — readable by everyone
04 — Loudness & true peak

Loudness and true peak, before the limiter argument.

Per-channel peak and RMS, plus full loudness metering: momentary, short-term, integrated, and Loudness Range — with true-peak detection so you catch inter-sample overs before they reach the limiter. Dynamics zones read SAFE / LOUD / PEAK in plain text.

05 — Built for the way you work

Two plugins. No routing. One picture.

Drop the hub on your master; drop a tiny Relay on each track you want to compare. Name it, give it a group number, and it shows up in the hub — no sidechain, no busing. Resizable window, saves with your project, up to 8 tracks per group. And because both are pure analyzers, bypass changes nothing, by design.

The workflow

Set it up in under a minute

1 Drop the hub on your master

Put AuraScope on your master (or any track to inspect). You immediately get spectrum, stereo field, and full loudness on the Single Channel tab.

2 Add a Relay per track

Put AuraScope Relay on your kick, bass, vocal — whatever you’re balancing. Type a name, pick a group number 1–8. No routing, no busing.

3 Open Multi-Track and read your mix

Pick that group in the hub’s Viewing dropdown. Every track overlays on one graph, and any frequency clash washes red.

No inflated numbers here. The honest reasons AuraScope earns a place on your master.

◆ One dev

Built by a working DJ/producer

Every decision made by someone who mixes their own tracks, not a plugin division.

◆ Tested

Passed pluginval, strictness 10

Both plugins validated at the toughest setting before they ever reach your DAW.

◆ Readable

Colorblind-readable UI

Every status reads by word and shape, never color alone. Built by a colorblind producer.

◆ Private

Nothing leaves your machine

No network calls, no account, no cloud. Pure analyzer, offline license. Works in ten years.

Real producer reviews will appear here as they come in. We don’t publish quotes or ratings until they’re real — that’s the ForgeDSP rule.

Honest answers

Does it change my sound?+
No. AuraScope 1.0 is a pure analyzer — both plugins pass your audio through bit-for-bit untouched. Bypass changes nothing, by design. There is nothing in it that alters your signal.
What’s the difference between AuraScope and AuraScope Relay?+
The hub (AuraScope) is the full analyzer you open and read. Relay is a tiny sender you drop on each track you want compared. One purchase includes both; one license covers the suite.
Do I need to set up sidechains or routing?+
No. Relays talk to the hub through local shared memory on your machine. Name the track, pick a group number, done. Nothing touches the network.
How does the free demo work?+
The demo is the full plugin — every feature, nothing greyed out. It runs 25 minutes per session; when the time is up the analysis pauses and a banner tells you why, while your audio keeps passing through untouched. Reload for another 25. A license key unlocks it instantly, no restart.
Is there a Mac version?+
Not yet. Windows-only at launch, said plainly. macOS is coming; join the list on the Free Demos page to hear when it lands.
Is this a subscription?+
No. Pay once, own the license. Both plugins, one purchase, free updates through 1.x. No account, no recurring charge, no cloud.
What if it’s not for me?+
Email us within 14 days of purchase and we refund you — see the refund policy. The free demo answers “does this work in my DAW” before you spend.

You could always hear when a mix was fighting itself. Now you can see exactly where.
