Measure

Technical depth,
without the fog.

WavRead maps what is present in a track: frequency balance, true peak, LUFS, loudness range, stereo behavior, song sections, chords, melody, lyrics, and stem activity. Every result says whether it was measured, detected, estimated, or unavailable.

  • Evidence-linked findings
  • Time-based graphs
  • Per-part measurements
WavRead frequency balance view with a one-third-octave spectrum, per-band percentages, and an evidence-based finding about a dark top end.
Frequency balance The finding names the measurement and the part of the spectrum it stands on.

Understand

Numbers that explain themselves.

A finding separates the measured result from its possible interpretation and the listening check. Press Listen to hear the exact evidence. WavRead never applies EQ, compression, mastering, or edits to your track.

Built for private listening

No cloud audio. No silent telemetry. No account for the app.

WavRead runs on your Mac. Accounts live only on this website, and the app sends nothing unless you turn problem reports on — then it sends exactly what the privacy page lists, and you can read every report before it goes.
