Trance mastering with supersaws that soar and a kick that still punches through.
Trance breakdowns build to huge, wide leads, and the drop has to deliver on that. ZERRRO Engine masters trance with reference profiles for main floor, psytrance and progressive, so the lift stays and the kick-bass stays tight.
The engine’s default for Trance: loud for the main floor with room left for the lead.
Psytrance and hard trance run louder. Their profiles aim higher.
Streaming normalises, so the streaming master keeps the breakdown-to-drop contrast.
What a trance master has to deliver
The emotion of a trance track is the contrast between a wide, open breakdown and a drop that hits. A master that is too loud makes both sound the same.
Supersaws that stay wide
Leads and pads live on width. The master keeps them wide and bright while the low end stays mono.
A tight kick-bass
Rolling basslines and the kick share the low end. They need to stay separate at festival loudness.
The lift after the breakdown
The drop needs to feel bigger than the breakdown. Over-limiting erases that difference first.
Hear it. Shape it. Then decide.
Upload & check
Bit depth, sample rate, true peak, clipping and loudness of your premaster are measured in seconds. If the file is already limited or clipping, you find out before anything is processed.
Pick Trance & Psy
The engine offers profiles for main floor trance, psytrance, progressive psy, deep and hard trance, built from released tracks and adapted to your mix. A reference track is optional.
Shape it while it plays
Choose a balanced or bright character, drag the EQ dots, or type “wider leads, tighter bass”. Auto sets the loudness for the subgenre.

Questions producers ask
How loud should a trance master be?
Around −8 LUFS integrated for main floor trance is what the engine’s Auto setting picks; psytrance and hard trance nearer −7.5. The limiter ceiling is 0 dBTP at club loudness; for streaming, around −14 LUFS at −1 dBTP.
Does it work for psytrance?
Yes, Psy-Trance and Progressive Psy are their own profiles in the Trance & Psy group.
Will my leads lose their width?
The stereo treatment keeps the low end mono and leaves the width of leads and pads. You hear it in the A/B before you pay.
Is it free?
The full-length preview and the A/B are free. You pay one credit, from 2.99 EUR, only when you download.
