Jay Maas has made some of the most iconic, influential and important records in punk, hardcore and indie music.
He's worked with bands like Have Heart, Bane, Counterparts, State Champs, The Story So Far, Verse, Propagandhi, Somos, No Trigger, Polar Bear Club, Title Fight, Carpathian, Strike Anywhere, Drug Church, Make Do And Mend, the list goes on and on and on...
Almost 20 years into his career he started to work on a new project, called Maastr.io.
Maastr is an automatic online mastering software, that allows musicians and engineers to master their songs and collaborate efficiently in one place.
Knowing that existing automatic, AI-based mastering tools get a bad rep (often for good reason), Jay and Maastr set out to transform the audio mastering process forever.
So they built a new kind of intelligent mastering engine, constructed with the expertise of the industry’s very best talents to help you achieve sonically beautiful masters and professionally elevated audio in minutes.
And they didn't stop there. Maastr has a built-in collaboration platform that allows engineers and artists to easily communicate and iterate, all in one place.
I've been talking to Jay about it for a bit on my other podcast (Outback Recordings Podcast - Episode 54), when he had just started it (among many many other things, so go listen to that episode), then later I became a Maastr subscriber myself, mainly out of curiosity.
I've been testing it thoroughly over the past couple of months and had lots of questions about this fascinating tool, Jay's personal approach to mastering, how he uses Maastr and how it can help the self-recording artists out there.
So I just had to reconnect with Jay and bring him on this podcast, which was an absolute blast. He's not only brilliant at what he does, but super fun to talk to and an open book when it comes to his knowledge and what he believes in.
Enjoy this deep dive into AI-mastering, mastering in general and of course Maastr.io.
