Vitric Tools

Free tools for mixing, mastering and beatmaking

Measure a master's loudness, find a track's key and tempo, work out delay times and read the frequency map. Every tool runs in your browser and costs nothing. Only the written critiques in Referee and Blueprint ask you to sign in, and they come with any paid Vitric license.

  • Free to use
  • Your audio never leaves your computer
  • LUFS and true peak

    Runs locally

    Loudness Meter

    Integrated LUFS, short-term and momentary maximums, loudness range and true peak, with what each streaming service says it does to a track at that level.

  • Key, Camelot, tempo

    Runs locally

    Key and BPM Finder

    The musical key with a confidence value, its relative key and Camelot code, the tempo with half-time and double-time readings, and the tuning reference.

  • BPM to ms and Hz

    Calculator

    Delay Calculator

    Tap or type a tempo and read every note value from a whole note to a 1/64, straight, dotted and triplet, in milliseconds and hertz, plus reverb starting points.

  • Ranges, bands, notes

    Calculator

    EQ Frequency Chart

    Where instruments sit from 20 Hz to 20 kHz, the bands engineers name (mud, honk, harshness, air), and a note to frequency converter for tuning 808s.

  • Mix critique

    Audio stays local

    Referee

    Measures a mix's loudness, spectral balance, width and dynamics against a genre target or a reference track, then writes a prioritized list of changes to try.

  • Arrangement coaching

    Audio stays local

    Blueprint

    Maps a bounce's sections and energy curve on a bar grid, compares the arrangement with a genre target or a reference, and suggests changes in bar counts.

Privacy and accuracy

How the tools work

The same care goes into these tools as into the plugins: the DSP is tested against published reference signals, and every outside figure links to where it comes from.

Your audio stays with you

Files are decoded and analyzed inside the browser tab, in a background worker on your own computer. The Loudness Meter and the Key and BPM Finder send nothing anywhere, and keep working without a connection once the page has loaded. Referee and Blueprint send only the measured numbers to write their notes, never the audio.

Checked against the standards

The loudness meter implements ITU-R BS.1770-4 and is tested against EBU Tech 3341 and 3342 style reference signals. The key finder is tested on chords and progressions in all 24 keys, tuned flat and sharp, with noise and drums.

No invented numbers

Streaming loudness figures come only from each service's own documentation, with the link and the date it was checked. Where a service publishes nothing, the loudness meter says so.
