Broadcast Audio Toolkit
Intelligent mastering and loudness optimization for Final Cut Pro — programme-wide analysis, one coherent strategy, delivery-ready output.
CLOSED BETA · NOT ON SALE YET
Broadcast Audio Toolkit (BAT) is an intelligent audio mastering plugin built specifically for Final Cut Pro. It combines professional loudness management with a reasoning-based mastering engine that analyzes your entire programme before making a single adjustment.
Rather than applying generic EQ presets or chasing target curves, BAT evaluates hundreds of measurements to understand your mix, preserve its character and improve translation across different playback systems.
The result is audio that sounds balanced, consistent and ready for delivery.

Asked, answered
Does it work with Final Cut Pro 12?
Yes — FCP 12 on Apple silicon is our primary test environment. FCP 10.6+ on Intel is supported too.
Is Broadcast Audio Toolkit available to buy?
Not yet. We're in a closed beta with a small group of editors. Request access via Support and we'll get back to you when a spot opens.
How is this different from Dialogue Enhancer?
Broadcast Audio Toolkit masters your programme for delivery — intelligent loudness, tonal balance and stereo optimization across the full mix. Dialogue Enhancer is for making dialogue sit better on individual clips. They complement each other; neither replaces the other.
Will BAT override my mix decisions?
No — BAT analyzes your programme to understand its character and creative intent before changing anything. When no improvement is beneficial, it bypasses processing automatically.
Which loudness standards does it support?
EBU R128 out of the box, plus platform-specific targets for broadcast and streaming delivery. Integrated, short-term, momentary and true-peak measurements stay visible while you work.
