Balance & frequency diagnostics
Sub, low-mid, mid, presence, air — every band scored against a genre-agnostic curve, with named build-ups and nulls.
AI Track Review · Mixing Prep
Understand your track
before you mix it.
A pre-mix readiness report — balance, frequency, dynamics and space — built for the handoff between artist and engineer. An analysis assistant, not a replacement for a mix or mastering engineer.

Feature set
What Brickyard tells you that a meter plugin will not.
The analysis is built around what a mix engineer asks for before opening your session — not generic numbers on a dashboard.
Dynamics & headroom
Integrated and short-term LUFS, true peak, crest factor and per-section transient profile — ready for streaming targets.
Clarity, masking & space
Narrow-band clashes, vocal intelligibility, mono compatibility and spatial depth — all in one readout, not five plug-ins.
Pre-mix checklist
Grouped by vocals, drums, bass and arrangement — the kind of notes a mix engineer expects.
Reference direction
Tonal, dynamic and spatial direction — without leaning on copyrighted reference tracks.
Revision history
A/B every revision. See which scores moved and which observations resolved.
Inside the report
A report engineered for the handoff, not for vanity metrics.

Top observations
- Low frequencySub build-up around 55–70 Hz
Sustained low-frequency energy is competing with the kick fundamental. Consider a high-pass on melodic basses or a dynamic cut around 60 Hz on the sub to clear the kick.
- Low-midSlight honk around 600 Hz
Acoustic guitar and vocal share a narrow build around 550–700 Hz. A ~1.5 dB cut on one of the sources should open up the midrange before mixdown.
- PresenceLead vocal presence peaks near 4 kHz
Vocal intelligibility is strong. If mastering adds high-shelf brightness, revisit de-essing on the vocal bus first.
- DynamicsHealthy headroom (−8.3 LUFS short-term peak)
Dynamic range is reasonable for a streaming master target. No aggressive limiting is needed before the mixing stage.
Workflow
Four steps from rough mix to mix-ready.
Step 01
Upload your rough mix
WAV, AIFF, FLAC or high-bitrate MP3. Up to 15 minutes per track. Choose the analysis depth that matches the stage of the production.
Step 02
Let the analysis run
Brickyard extracts short-term and integrated loudness, spectral balance, dynamic profile, stereo image and masking hotspots.
Step 03
Read the report
Receive a readiness score, ranked observations, a pre-mix checklist and reference direction notes. Export a PDF for your engineer.
Step 04
Iterate on revisions
Upload a revised bounce and compare against the previous version. Confirm the fixes landed before you commit to a mixdown.
Who it is for
Built around the pre-mix moment.
Brickyard does not replace a mixing engineer or a mastering chain — it gives you a consistent, structured readout before you get there.
Independent musicians
Finish a rough mix with confidence before you send it out for mixing, mastering or feedback to a collaborator.
Producers & arrangers
Quickly identify arrangement issues — masking, build-ups, flat sections — without relying on a dedicated A&R ear.
Small recording studios
Offer clients a transparent pre-mix readiness checkpoint as part of the tracking-to-mixing handoff.
Audio engineers
Use Brickyard as a second opinion on balance and headroom across long sessions, without leaving your DAW context.

FAQ
Things musicians and engineers ask us first.
If your question is not here, our support team replies within one working day.
No. Brickyard is an analysis assistant designed to help you prepare a track before it reaches a mix engineer. It provides structured observations and a pre-mix checklist — final creative and technical mixing decisions always belong to the engineer and the artist.
What Brickyard does not claim to do.
Brickyard does not guarantee a chart result, viral response or commercial outcome. It does not create remixes, re-use copyrighted audio, or replace human engineering judgment. We are an analysis tool — the report is a structured second opinion, not a certification.
