A powerful tool designed for quickly finalizing complete mixes, stems, buses, and/or individual audio tracks
Grand Finale is a multi-effect plug-in designed for finalizing complete mixes, stems, buses, and/or individual audio tracks. The plug-in offers several modules in a pre-routed configuration. Each module has parameters to alter, and most modules offer a set of algorithms to select. These features come together to make Grand Finale a powerful tool for quickly finalizing a track, bus, or mix.
Trim the input signal, add your desired amount of compression, multi-band compression, stereo width, EQ, blend in some add compression and/or distortion, and glue it all together by balancing the input and output trim. Use the meters to monitor and adjust your output level to whatever destination (for example, YouTube recommends -14 LUFS).
- 1. Master section – This module contains a high-pass filter, input and output gain knobs, a limiter, and some metering. The red and green lines reflect how audio is routed to and from this box.
- 2. Metering – The meters give you information about the levels of the output signal, reading LUFS to the left and RMS to the right. LUFS can be useful if you want to finalize your audio to fit online services like YouTube or Spotify
- 3. Add signal path – After the Output gain, the signal is split and also sent to the add signal path. Here, you may add additional Dist and Compressor and then mix together with the main signal path, before the output gain.
- 4. Main signal path – All the modules in this box are processed in serial from left to right: Compressor, Multi-band Compressor, Stereo width effect, EQ.
