01 — THE LINEUP

Four plugins. One signal chain.

◆ MIX SENSEI · AI MASTERING

A mastering engineer that explains itself.

Load your mix. Mix Sensei analyzes it against reference targets, tells you what it hears, then builds a ten-tool chain to fix it — EQ, dynamics, harmonic re-anchoring, de-essing, and a true-peak limiter.

  • 10-band EQ with magic harmonic re-anchoring
  • Plain-language feedback on your balance & loudness
  • Normalize to LUFS target, then drag to export

Hear what the AI hears.

Feed it a mix and Sensei breaks down the balance in seconds — then proposes the chain to fix it.

STUDIO A · CONVOLUTION REVERB

We didn't sample a room. We modeled ours.

Studio A captures Clear Lake's 30′ × 22′ Live Room A across five positions — four in stereo, one mono — through Augspurger monitoring, plus a faithful model of Clear Lake's Hardware Reverb Unit.

  • 5-mic capture (4 stereo + 1 mono) of the real Live Room A
  • RT60 up to 6.31s via Clear Lake's Hardware Reverb Unit
  • Per-mic mixer, snapshots, full EQ section

These tools come from somewhere.

Clear Lake Recording has tracked, mixed and mastered records for almost four decades. The plugins carry that DNA — the rooms, the gear, the way the records actually sound.

Built for the way you actually work.

TrackZero
TRACKZERO · UTILITY

Move zero to where the music starts.

Drop an anchor anywhere and TrackZero re-reads your whole timeline from that point — in time or bars. Nudge by samples, lock to the grid, re-fire every loop pass.

PRO TOOLS NOTES · CAPTURE

Every note, pinned to the session.

Takes, punches, keepers, TODOs, outboard photos — all timestamped to the bar and beat, searchable, and one click from jumping back into Pro Tools.
