IK Multimedia T-RackS 5 Deluxe
22 dream modules for modern producers
Our T-RackS 5 Deluxe Collection provides the professional tools you need to take your mixing and mastering talents to the next level. It features 22 digital and analog-modeled processors that instantly expand the power of your desktop recording studio with extraordinary processing versatility and soulful analog personality.
Not only is each of these processors fabulous on its own, but you can also chain up to 16 of them together with the standalone T-RackS app, which makes it remarkably easy to listen to different effect chains, turn processors on and off, recreate the chain order, and perform parallel processing just by dragging and dropping the processors into the desired position. But this is just one of the possibilities. You can open the modules individually as plug-ins for standard multitrack mixing tasks, or use them as a “plug-in suite” within your favorite DAW. All T-RackS 5 plugins support 64-bit Audio Units, VST2, VST3 and AAX formats and you can resize them at will.
In addition to the 22 processors, you also get the new T-RackS 5 professional measurement suite, which immediately provides you with complete visual information about your audio material, so you can easily deliver professional results that meet strict audio standards. broadcast compatibility. T-RackS 5 includes everything, Peak meters, RMS, Dynamic Range, spectrogram, real-time analyzer, phase correlation and much more. The metering section can even run as a separate floating window on a second screen, so you can keep an eye on levels while focusing on mixing and mastering.

Our new T-RackS 5, T-RackS Deluxe and flagship T-RackS MAX collections all include the “fab four“: Master Match, Dyna-Mu, ONE and EQual. Let's take a closer look at these amazing virtual drives:
Master Match
Automatic mastering matching processor. A smart and powerful module that automatically matches the sound of your songs with up to 3 different reference source songs that allow you to create great-sounding mixes and masters without needing to become an audio engineering guru.
Dyna-Mu
Vari-mu valve compressor. An exact emulation of the well-known American tube compressor celebrated for its warm, vividly colored sound, perfectly recreated and indistinguishable from the original hardware. It shines on individual tracks and is perfect as part of any professional mastering chain.
ONE
“All in one” mixing and mastering processor. Versatile “all-in-one” processor to shape sound quickly with total simplicity and impressive effectiveness. It includes EQ, compressor, harmonic exciter, bass enhancer and limiter, which will allow anyone to achieve professional results quickly and easily.
EQual
Precision equalizer for mastering with 10 bands and analog curves. Ultra-clear high-end parametric equalizer with 10 bands and extremely transparent sound, ultra-precise editing and a wide selection of filter shapes based on curves typical of classic British and American analog equalizers. This incredible, flexible “hybrid monster” gives you the best of both worlds – digital precision and on-demand analog personality that works perfectly for high-end mastering as well as single tracks.
Deluxe sound, in a DAW or alone
With T-RackS 5, you have the freedom to optimize your workflow at will with 3 different working environments. You can use the modules as individual plug-ins within your DAW or as an integrated suite of plug-ins that can chain up to 16 modules at a time and create complex signal chains.
You can also run T-RackS 5 as a standalone application and perform all processing in its resizable interface. Additionally, if you have IK's ARC System, the ARC processing will easily integrate with the signal chain when you open the T-RackS in standalone mode.
