Honest audio scoring

Know exactly how good your audio is — on the gear you actually own.

CW Studio measures your take against your gear's ceiling, tells you the truth about it, and shows you what to fix first. No guessing, no vague meters.

The insight

A 70 on a studio mic isn't a 70 on a headset.

Every other tool grades your audio as if all gear were equal. It isn't. A headset has a hard ceiling no technique can break past — so the same raw quality means something completely different depending on what you recorded on. We score against your gear's real ceiling, so the number actually means something.

your take, scoredperformance × ceiling

Same performance, different ceiling — why the read differs, and why a number alone lies.

From a raw take to a fix, in one pass.

No dashboards to decode. You get a read you can act on.

01

Analysis

Upload a clip. We measure noise, sibilance, room, levels, and the rest — the same engine on every plan.

02

Diagnosis

Two scores: how well you used your gear, and how good that gear can get. Plus what's actually dragging you down.

03

Fix

Clear next steps, sequenced by impact. Ask Vela what a result means, or clean the recording itself.

Why it's honest

We grade you against your ceiling, not a studio's.

Performance is how close you got to the best your gear can do. Ceiling is how good that best is. Separating them means a great take on a budget mic reads as a great take — and you find out exactly when better gear is the only thing left holding you back.

No inflated numbers. No telling you to buy something you don't need.
