I was thinking the same thing. I'm curious now. It's worth the $10 just to see.

Well you could always do the old fashioned "download" of just patching the stereo out to a pair of ins and recording that.

I always thought the fun part of these is to upload something that already mastered up to 0dbfs and see what they spit back out.

The thing that's obvious and missing is the fact that the most important process of properly "mastering" audio is the listening part.

Indeed. Who wants to upload some full blast white noise?

It'd be an easy enough mix though!
