## Matching + Mastering = ❤️

**[Matchering 2.0]** is a novel **[Containerized Web Application][Docker Image]** and **[Python Library][PyPI]** for audio matching and [mastering].

It follows a *simple idea* - you take TWO audio files and feed them into **Matchering**: 

- **TARGET** (the track you want to master, you want it to sound like the reference)

- **REFERENCE** (another track, like some kind of "wet" popular song, you want your target to sound like it)

Our algorithm matches both of these tracks and provides you the mastered **TARGET** track with the same [RMS], [FR], [peak amplitude] and [stereo width] as the **REFERENCE** track has.

You can try out **Matchering** yourself without having to install it, thanks to the hosting provided by **[Songmastr](https://www.songmastr.com/)** and **[Moises](https://moises.ai/)**.

Watch **[the video][Video]**:

[![Matchering 2.0 Promo Video](http://img.youtube.com/vi/8Su5STDYfcA/0.jpg)][Video]

So **Matchering 2.0** will make your song sound the way you want! It opens up a wide range of opportunities:

- You can make your music instantly sound like your favorite artist's music

- You can make all the tracks on your new album sound the same very quickly

- You can find new aspects of your sound in experiments

- You can do everything as you want! Because of **[Your References, Your Rules.™](https://macprovideo.com/article/audio-software/sound-tools-instant-online-mastering-with-reference-matching-now-in-open-beta)** *(just a little nostalgic note)* 🤭

![Matchering WEB GIF Animation](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sergree/matchering/master/images/animation.gif "Matchering WEB")

> Differences from the previous major version:

> - Completely rewritten in [Python 3], based on open source tech stack (no more [MATLAB])

> - Our own open source [brickwall limiter] was implemented for it

> - Processing speed and accuracy have been increased

> - Now it is [the library][PyPI] that can be connected to **everything** in **the Python world**

# Installation and Usage

If you are a music producer or an audio engineer, choose the **[Docker Image]**. 

If you are a developer, choose the **[Python Library](#python-library---for-developers)**.

# Docker Image - The Easiest Way

**Matchering 2.0** works on all major platforms using **Docker**.

## Choose yours

### [NEW! Try WITHOUT Installation](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aw0nH6QqAck)

### [Windows](https://github.com/sergree/matchering/blob/master/DOCKER_WINDOWS.md)

### [macOS](https://github.com/sergree/matchering/blob/master/DOCKER_MACOS.md)

### [Linux](https://github.com/sergree/matchering/blob/master/DOCKER_LINUX.md)

### [NEW! ComfyUI](https://github.com/MuziekMagie/ComfyUI-Matchering)

## Updating

If you need to update the version of the installed **Docker Image**, follow **[these instructions](https://github.com/sergree/matchering/blob/master/DOCKER_UPDATING.md)**.

# Python Library - For Developers

## Installation

**4 GB RAM machine with [Python 3.8.0 or higher][Python 3] is required**

### libsndfile

**Matchering 2.0** depends on the **[SoundFile]** library, which depends on the system library **[libsndfile]**. On Windows and macOS, it installs automatically. On Linux, you need to install **[libsndfile]** using your distribution's package manager, for example:

```sudo apt update && sudo apt -y install libsndfile1```

### python3-pip

On some Linux distributions, **python3-pip** is not installed by default. For example use this command on Ubuntu Linux to fix this:

```sudo apt -y install python3-pip```

### Matchering Python Package

Finally, install our `matchering` package:

```

# Linux / macOS

python3 -m pip install -U matchering

# Windows

python -m pip install -U matchering

```

### *(Optional) FFmpeg*

If you would like to enable *MP3 loading support*, you need to install the **[FFmpeg][FFmpeg]** library. For example use this command on Ubuntu Linux:

```sudo apt -y install ffmpeg```

Or follow these instructions: [Windows][FFmpeg-win], [macOS][FFmpeg-mac].

## Quick Example

```python

import matchering as mg

# Sending all log messages to the default print function

# Just delete the following line to work silently

mg.log(print)

mg.process(

    # The track you want to master

    target="my_song.wav",

    # Some "wet" reference track

    reference="some_popular_song.wav",

    # Where and how to save your results

    results=[

        mg.pcm16("my_song_master_16bit.wav"),

        mg.pcm24("my_song_master_24bit.wav"),

    ],

)

```

You can find more examples in the **[examples directory]**.

### Or you can use premade **Matchering 2.0 Command Line Application**: **[matchering-cli]**.
