Complete control
MAATgo combines various channel steering and blending controls with balance adjustment and a goniometer. It features stereo image and routing controls, including sum or L+R mode, difference or L-R mode, swap mode for interchanging left and right channels, and polarity inversion for left, right, or both channels. This allows you to manage your audio precisely and efficiently, ensuring accurate monitoring and mixing.
Additionally, MAATgo offers five specialized monitoring modes, including solo, mono, and mid/side rendering. These modes help you detect any cancellation in the phantom centre and check how the centre relates to the edges of the stereo field, providing a comprehensive analysis of your audio mix.
See what you're hearing
The goniometer or "phase scope" in MAATgo quickly conveys global audio trends and issues. It lets you gauge frequency response and phase shift, with a built-in visual out-of-phase warning. An optional autogain feature ensures a clear display across various input amplitudes.
MAATgo offers customizable visualization options, allowing you to control gain, focus, colour, drawing style, and persistence. These settings can be saved as personal presets, making it easy to tailor the visual feedback to your preferences and workflow.
Stream through
A significant bonus with MAATgo is its standalone version, which operates without needing a DAW, plug-in host, or player app. This native mode allows MAATgo to function as a stream-through processor for a dedicated metering machine, similar to hi-fi hardware components.
For seamless integration, you may need a virtual audio device, such as VB-Audio’s HI-FI Cable for Windows or Existential Audio’s BlackHole for macOS. Both options are free and provide the necessary audio patching for MAATgo's standalone operation.
Easy on you…and your system
MAATgo is designed to be user-friendly and efficient. Its resizable user interface is visually unobtrusive, occupying only a small portion of your screen, yet packed with information. Moreover, the plug-in is lightweight and demands minimal CPU resources, ensuring it won't slow down your DAW, player, or host. This makes MAATgo a practical addition to any audio workflow, providing powerful features without compromising system performance.
