Its blind test mode labels the sources randomly, so you choose with your ears rather than your expectations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0441\/2286\/5816\/files\/nugen-ab-assist-2-plugin.jpg?v=1794501100\" alt=\"NUGEN Audio AB Assist 2 audio comparison plugin interface\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFair comparisons\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLouder nearly always sounds better, which makes most A\/B tests meaningless. AB Assist 2 can match the short-term loudness (LUFS) of each source automatically, so you're judging tone and balance, not level. There's a mono check for hearing the fold-down, smooth fades between sources so the switch itself doesn't colour your judgement, and multiple instances talk to each other directly without needing an external send.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhere it fits\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChoosing between mixes or masters, shoot-outs between plugins, and settling arguments with clients or bandmates.
