SoundBoost Free Tools

Six small tools that each solve one problem: measure loudness, hear what streaming does to your master, tag MP3s, convert formats, make sound samples from a sentence, and build a link-in-bio page.

The LUFS Meter, one of the six. Drop a file, read the numbers.

Not everything needs a mastering session. Sometimes you just want a number, a tag or a different file format. These tools do exactly one job each, they are free, and none of them asks for a plan. Three run entirely inside your browser; three live in the SoundBoost app and need a free account for the button that does the work.

#Where the browser tools live

#Free ways into the big tools

The mastering engine and the stem splitter have free front doors too. They are not on this list because they have whole sections of their own, but here is where they start.

Are they really free?

Yes. No plan, no trial, no watermark. The three app tools want a free SoundBoost account so your results have somewhere to live; the three browser tools do not even ask for that.

Do the browser tools upload my file?

No. The LUFS Meter, Loudness Penalty and Metadata Editor open the file on your own machine and do their work there. Close the tab and nothing is left behind.

Do they work on a phone?

All six open in a phone browser. They are not inside the iOS and Android apps, so use Safari or Chrome for them.
