Beyond the insert chain

Standard mode rebuilds the processing chain. Design & Master (Deep / Pro) answers what sits around the dry take — space, beds, width — and how the print should land for streaming. Use after you’ve locked the core chain and compared your take.

Do I need Pro for Design & Master?

Yes. Deep mode is part of Pro and unlocks Design and Master panels.

Is Master a real mastering chain?

It’s a measured suggestion and checklist — always verify by ear and on a proper mastering path.

Can I export Design to Ableton?

Export the processing rack from the chain; Design notes guide the arrangement and print path around it.
