Overview

A sound assistant that knows you

Classic analyzers hand you a static report and generic advice. Versions opens a conversation: ask anything, dig into the details, push back on the analysis — every answer is grounded in your live measurements and the plugins you actually own, and Versions keeps the thread of your project, version after version.

Your intent comes first: your track is never judged in a vacuum. The analysis is calibrated to what you're going for — the emotion, the genre, the sound you're chasing — and your references become the compass. No “your upper mids feel a bit crowded” at the end: concrete values, frequency ranges, plugins matched to your DAW. You walk away with a plan.

Key features

What we listen for

Six axes, one complete listen

Each axis combines objective DSP analysis with an AI judgment calibrated to your intent. No score is ever given without a reason.

AXIS — 01

Frequency balance

Lows, mids, highs — weighting across bands, masking, overall curve.

AXIS — 02

Dynamics

Crest factor, dynamic range, transients, compression management.

AXIS — 03

Stereo image

Width, mono compatibility, L/R balance, element placement.

AXIS — 04

Space and depth

Reverbs, delays, front/back layers, the spatial read of your mix.

AXIS — 05

Overall cohesion

How it holds together, flow between sections, sonic identity.

AXIS — 06

Vocals

Intelligibility, presence, sibilance, how the voice sits in the mix.
