Local-First Audio Privacy

Local-first audio privacy means the product is designed so core analysis and mastering can run in the browser, reducing the need to upload unreleased songs for processing.

Key takeaways

What local-first means

Local-first means the application is designed to process audio on the user’s device when using the browser mastering workflow. This reduces exposure compared with cloud-only mastering workflows.

What users should still understand

A browser app still downloads code and assets. Users should only use official BASS MASTERING domains, keep their browser updated and avoid uploading confidential material into third-party pages.

How this supports creators

Unreleased tracks, client demos, sync submissions and AI-generated drafts are sensitive creative assets. A local-first workflow supports faster experimentation with less unnecessary data movement.

Operational boundary

This page is a public explanation, not a disclosure of internal engine thresholds, rule logic or license infrastructure.

FAQ

Does local-first mean no server exists?

Not necessarily. Licensing, account management and payments may use servers, but the core audio processing workflow is designed for browser-local operation.

Can I use BASS MASTERING for client demos?

The local-first design is intended to be suitable for sensitive creative workflows, subject to final legal terms and user policy.
