Is this for editing or finishing episodes?
Finishing. Make cuts and assemble the episode in your editor, then bring the edited audio into Batchy for processing and delivery.
What loudness target should I use?

Can I use my existing plugins?
Compatible VST3 plugins on macOS and Windows, plus AU on macOS. Third-party plugins are separately licensed.
Is there a free trial?
Yes. Download Batchy and select Start 7-day free trial on the welcome screen or in Manage License. Email required to start; no payment required. Downloading does not start the trial. A paid license is required after seven days.
