Does anyone know if there is any alternatives to mix checker ?
Interesting plugin. First time I’ve heard about it.
Curious to see if there’s any other responses.

Just found one Home - Oscillot Audio
I have mix checker .Its ok when you get used to it ,its a help in mastering i find more than anything
IK Multimedia ARC system 3 does that, although it’s not its primary purpose. I don’t use it though, I find that my Mixcubes are trustworthy enough, and sometimes I check on my phone and bluetooth speaker.
I am very tempted to buy some mix cubes but there not cheap and also need an amp to run them
I remember this a while back:
This issue had a plugin called Dee Monitor, which is similar (but not the same) as Mix checker. You can buy a back copy of this issue of Computer Music and then you have access to the downloads.

The modern Avantone Mixcube is active and works great.

Oh right i didn’t know that
Slate VSX modeling system has it, but not sure if its available without the headphones or not. I would assume it should be, it is decent even without using the slate headphones.

This is probably a very simplified version of what Mix Checker does, only without the UI. I copied and saved as Presets in my DAW’s EQ.

Melda’s FREE EQ has an “Auto-listen” button (towards the top on the left). When activated, if you click a node, it solos that frequency. You can adjust the Q to to get a broader filter that you can compare with your reference.

Here’s another DIY option. I ran across this one a while ago - using Aurotone IRs.

Nothing like the car to tell you how off your bass mixing is!
