It looks that only the name is the same. I never had a HW Finalizer but this pack appears to have a lot more than I remember from the articles I read back then. The ad says that it's been ported from their System 6000 high end audio processor.

Anyone knows the deadline for the $99 price?

I found this on https://rekkerd.org/tc-electronic-to-change-the-game-of-mastering-with-new-finalizer-app/

"The free mastering analysis tools are now available at finalizer.com, and the Finalizer software app is available now at an early bird introductory price of $99 USD until September 20th, 2019 (regular $199 USD)."

Good work Sergio!  Their website sure doesn't say...

Too bad the analyser is online ....

[Reid Rosefelt]

Note that this is a standalone and not a plugin.

I tried the demo for a few hours yesterday. I liked it in general, only wish it had a few more features. The sample rate is limited, you can't create fades which I usually prefer doing during mastering. You can only do one track at at time so for  cd you'd still need other mastering software. It would be nice to add 3rd party plugins but I do understand why they don't offer it.

It sounded very good, nice features & very stable, never crashed. It uses a lot of cpu when calculating though. $99.00 is a fair price, just wish it was more of an all in one mastering solution.

(I couldn't get the online analyzer to work, always got an error message when uploading tracks.)

The analyser keeps disconnecting... for me, and I have a very good isp speed and latency. Teething issues, or overwhelmed, you decide LOL. Great piece of kit the app is based on for sure. I used to have the DBX Quantum, twice.. that was good too.

Downloaded the demo. I really like this.

It also reveals in startling clarity that I have no idea what I'm doing.

No plugin version , beware ....

[Pierre-Luc Demers]

Well, I installed it but never been able to use it, since it crashes right on start... I had mails with their support (which is completely bad and not competent at all) and I saw lot of buyers had the same issue. Looks like TC doesn't know at all how to fix it.

Sorry to necro this thread guys and gals, but I just recently discovered the website for Finalizer is gone too. And, my installation of the app on my now Monterey OSX Macbook Pro no longer works... TC Electronics may have stealth killed this off...

I think they just moved it to their site:

Hi Pollux,

Thanks I saw that, didn't put two and two together ?. So the question is now, why is it suddenly not working...  And that site doesn't appear to do what the old one did for live comparison?. Hmmm.

[Pollux]

They are still selling it for $199, so I think the easiest would be to contact their support

That would be pretty rough if that's the case and they didn't let anyone know...

I can't even start it, guess it's time to uninstall and get newest version again... I was sure I updated to previous OSX... the joys of developers being behind the Apple dev cycle :). Thanks.
