A Matchering Alternative That Runs in Your Browser, No Code
Matchering is a great free, open-source reference-mastering engine, but you need Python, the command line, and a reference file to use it. MixMasterAI gives you online mastering free with none of the setup.
The problem with Matchering:
Matchering is open source and free, but running it means installing Python, using the command line, and supplying a reference track. That is a real barrier for anyone who is not a developer.

3 Reasons to Switch from Matchering
No Python, no command line.
Matchering is powerful but built for developers. You install it, run it in a terminal, and feed it a reference file. MixMasterAI does reference-style and genre-preset mastering in the browser with nothing to install.
You do not even need a reference track.
Matchering only works if you supply a commercial song to match. MixMasterAI can do that too through its Reference Master tool, but it also offers 16 genre presets and exact platform LUFS targets, so you can master well with no reference at all.
Handles AI music that Matchering ignores.
Matchering matches your track to a reference and stops there. MixMasterAI adds an AI Humanizer that repairs the harshness and loose low end in Suno and Udio exports first, then masters, for a cleaner result on AI tracks.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is there an online version of Matchering I do not have to install?
MixMasterAI is the no-install path. It runs in your browser and offers both reference-style mastering (through the Reference Master tool) and genre-preset mastering, so you get Matchering-style results without Python or the command line.
Do I need a reference track like Matchering requires?
No. You can supply a reference for tone matching, or skip it entirely and use one of 16 genre presets with an exact streaming LUFS target. Matchering requires a reference file for every job.
Is MixMasterAI free like Matchering?
Yes. Both are free. The difference is setup: Matchering needs Python and technical know-how, while MixMasterAI works instantly in any browser with no account.
