features
what makes CHECK different.
01 / spectral correlation curve
see mono compatibility across 40 frequency bands in real time. not just a single number — a full picture of where your stereo image holds up and where it falls apart.
02 / bass-weighted score
the score weighs low frequencies 3x heavier than highs — because that's where mono collapse actually hurts. if your bass drops below 60%, your low end won't survive a club system.
03 / frequency-focused analysis
the FOCUS knob lets you zoom into LOW, FULL, or HIGH frequency ranges. isolate your bass mono compatibility or check just the stereo highs.
04 / instant mono and side monitoring
MONO button collapses to mono so you hear the damage. SIDE button solos the difference signal — everything that disappears in mono, isolated.
05 / colour-coded curve and bar chart view
the correlation curve changes colour as it crosses zone boundaries — mint where you're safe, amber for caution, red for phase cancel. flip to bar chart mode via the right-click menu to see all 40 ERB bands as discrete coloured rectangles. spot a single problem frequency at a glance.
06 / smart education that names the frequency
instead of generic warnings, CHECK tells you exactly what's happening: "phase cancel around 80 hz. often an out-of-phase kick and bass relationship." three message variants per problem rotate as you iterate, so you learn three common causes per region. bass is treated as more critical than highs because that's where mono collapse actually hurts.
