# uj-mastering-master
A custom mastering toolkit that provides metrics to evaluate audio masterings through visual analysis.
## Current Implementation
### Core Features
- **Audio Analysis**: Uses librosa to analyze audio files (MP3/WAV support)
- **Power Visualization**: Generates colorized power magnitude graphs over time
- **Metadata Extraction**: Reads ID3 tags from MP3 files for better file identification
- **GUI Foundation**: Basic PyQt5 drag-and-drop interface (work in progress)
### Technical Stack
- **Audio Processing**: librosa, numpy
- **Visualization**: matplotlib with custom colormaps
- **GUI Framework**: PyQt5 (drag-and-drop functionality)
- **Metadata**: mutagen for MP3 tag reading
### Key Components
#### `master_core.py`
- `AudioFile` class: Main audio processing class
- Loads audio files and extracts basic metrics (max/avg amplitude, BPM)
- `get_energy_levels_over_time()`: Calculates RMS power over rolling windows
- `plot_energy_levels_over_time()`: Creates colorized power graphs with automatic headroom detection
- `analyze_track_librosa()`: Legacy analysis function (dBFS calculations)
- File processing from `files.txt` configuration
#### `main.py`
- PyQt5 drag-and-drop interface
- Currently displays file paths but doesn't integrate with analysis functions
- Placeholder for GUI integration
#### `files.txt`
- Configuration file listing audio files to analyze
- Supports comments (`;` and `#` prefixed lines)
- Currently contains various music file paths
### Current Analysis Features
- **RMS Power Analysis**: 10-second rolling window with 2-second hops
- **Adaptive Color Mapping**: Automatically adjusts scale based on detected headroom
- High dynamic range: 0-0.6 scale for loud masters
- Conservative mastering: 0-0.3 scale for quiet masters
- **BPM Detection**: Automatic tempo analysis
- **Metadata Display**: Artist and title from ID3 tags
### Known Issues
- GUI integration incomplete (drag-drop doesn't trigger analysis)
- MP3 tag reading temporarily disabled in some parts
- No interactive features yet implemented
## Future Development Plans
### Short-term Goals
1. **Complete GUI Integration**
- Connect drag-drop functionality to analysis pipeline
- Real-time graph display in GUI window
- File browser for batch processing
2. **Enhanced Metrics**
- Dynamic range measurement (DR meter)
- Peak-to-average ratio analysis
- Frequency spectrum analysis
- Loudness standards compliance (LUFS)
3. **Interactive Features**
- Zoom/pan on power graphs
- Playback controls with visual cursor
- Export analysis results to CSV/JSON
### Medium-term Goals
1. **Advanced Analysis Tools**
- Spectral centroid and bandwidth analysis
- Stereo width measurements
- Transient detection and analysis
- Harmonic distortion detection
2. **Comparison Features**
- Side-by-side track comparison
- Reference track overlay
- Mastering version A/B testing
3. **Batch Processing**
- Folder-based analysis
- Automated report generation
- Progress tracking for large collections
### Long-term Vision
1. **VST Plugin Development**
- Real-time analysis during mixing/mastering
- Integration with DAWs
- Live feedback during production
2. **Professional Features**
- EBU R128 compliance checking
- Custom target curves
- Professional reporting formats
- Multi-format export capabilities
## Development Notes
### Dependencies
- librosa: Audio analysis and feature extraction
- numpy: Numerical computations
- matplotlib: Plotting and visualization
- mutagen: Audio metadata extraction
- PyQt5: GUI framework
### Architecture Considerations
- Current code mixes analysis and visualization - consider separation
- File path handling needs improvement for cross-platform compatibility
- Error handling should be enhanced for production use
- Consider moving from PyQt5 to PyQt6 or PySide for better licensing
### Testing Requirements
- Unit tests for audio analysis functions
- GUI component testing
- File format compatibility testing
- Performance testing with large audio files
## Usage
### Current Usage
1. Add audio file paths to `files.txt`
2. Run `python master_core.py` for batch analysis
3. Run `python main.py` for GUI (incomplete)
### Planned Usage
1. Drag and drop audio files into GUI
2. Real-time analysis with interactive graphs
3. Export reports and comparisons
4. VST plugin for DAW integration

Utility providing metrics to evaluate masterings.
Now boosted by Claude Code.
## dependencies

## usage
### Command Line Analysis
1. Edit `files.txt` to include paths to your audio files (MP3/WAV supported)
- Use `;` or `#` to comment out files
- One file path per line
2. Run: `python master_core.py`
- Generates colorized power magnitude graphs for each file
- Displays BPM and song metadata
- Graphs show RMS power over time with adaptive scaling
### GUI Mode (Experimental)
Run: `python main.py`
- Opens drag-and-drop interface
- Currently displays dropped file paths
- Analysis integration coming soon
### Output
- Interactive matplotlib graphs showing power levels over time
- Color-coded visualization (autumn colormap)
- Automatic headroom detection and scaling
- Console output with BPM and metadata information
