Supersymmetric gauge theories have an important but perhaps under-appreciated notion of a master space, which controls the full moduli space. For world-volume theories of D-branes probing a Calabi-Yau singularity $${\mathcal X}$$ the situation is particularly illustrative. In the case of one physical brane, the master space $${\mathcal F^b}$$ is the space of F-terms and a particular quotient thereof is $${\mathcal X}$$ itself. We study various properties of $${\mathcal F^b}$$ which encode such physical quantities as Higgsing, BPS spectra, hidden global symmetries, etc. Using the plethystic program we also discuss what happens at higher number N of branes.
