Burnish analyzes every track, computes only the corrections that help, skips the ones that hurt, and verifies the result against a release-grade quality gate — before it ever calls itself done.
The composition got good. The audio engineering didn't. Every AI export ships with the same fingerprint — and you can feel it even when you can't name it.
AI models pile energy where laptops sound thick. On earbuds and in cars it becomes a wall that buries everything.
Upper-mid presence pushed to feel exciting on first listen — and exhausting thirty seconds into good headphones.
Trained on compressed data, the models hard-cut the top. The shimmer that makes a mix breathe is missing.
No distance between an intimate verse and a chorus that should lift. A limiter on a flat source just gets louder.
WAV or MP3 — full mix or stems, straight out of Suno, Udio, or your DAW. No prep, no chain to build.
A full forensic pass drives an adaptive pipeline. It moves only the parameters that are out of range — and proves it didn't make anything worse.
A 24-bit, streaming-ready WAV plus a full report that shows every measurement, every decision, and every check it passed.
Every Burnish master runs nine release-grade checks before the file is written. Fail a critical one and the pipeline reverts, backs off, and tries a lighter touch. The master doesn't exist until it passes.
No clipping slips through. No over-limited transients. No stereo trick that collapses to mono on a phone speaker. The numbers are the contract.
Tell Burnish what the track is for, not what a compressor ratio should be. Same source, three intents — hear the curve move as you switch.
Maximum clarity. Mud cut harder, presence lifted, air extended further. The vocal steps forward and the listener leans in.
Sensible corrections across the board. Nothing pushed into territory that feels wrong on any one genre. Most tracks live here.
Preserve warmth. Gentler mud cleanup, smaller presence boost, character kept thick and enveloping. The density is the point.
Every master ships with a full report: before and after for every metric, which stages fired and why, which were skipped, and exactly which checks it passed.
See which corrections fired, by how much, and which were skipped because the source was already in range.
Specific moments where a problem was detected — and whether it was auto-fixed or flagged for you.
If vocal clarity is low because the bass-to-presence gap is 15 dB, you'll know — the problem is the source, not the master.
Same source file, mastered by Burnish. Hit play, then toggle. Listen for the air on top, the vocal stepping out of the mud, and the low end finally holding still.
Demo audio drops in here once your files are added to /audio — players are wired and waiting.
Burnish is in private beta. The door opens soon. In the meantime, read the method or look at the pricing shape — both are public.
