For example, in times when the client wants a quick bounce of the mix with a higher or lower vocal, Master Rebalance allows us to do just that, but quicker and easier.
While this tool can have obvious uses for postmortem balance corrections where a mix rebalance isn’t available there are also instances where the Master Rebalance can be useful for mix engineers.
#IZOTOPE OZONE 8 ADVANCED REVIEW SOFTWARE#
when used with lower to medium values the software practically leaves the surrounding instrumentation intact with no audible distortion, artifacts, or changes in tone and level. Its response is surprisingly accurate to the selected instrument.
Similar results like the ones from Master Rebalance in mastering have been possible before with traditional EQ & Compression techniques, but this module makes them that much easier and quicker. Those level changes are accessible via a simple and slick fader which also supports automation. The brand-new Master Rebalance module allows us to make real-time gain changes to the Vocals, Bass, or Drums in the mastering stage without having to change levels of the individual tracks in the mix. If we dig deeper into the other modules we can find similar minor updates that all contribute to a faster and smoother workflow. One elegant example is the resisability of both the mastering suite and the individual modules when used in standalone mode.Īnother noticeable UI change is that all the “Set & Forget” parameters of the individual EQ bands can now be hidden with a simple button in the top left corner, which results in a cleaner, less eye-fatiguing view.
#IZOTOPE OZONE 8 ADVANCED REVIEW UPDATE#
Whilst iZotope didn’t bring a major update to its UI, when we dig deeper we notice they have indeed introduced some radical changes to the visuals that all make the UI simpler, slicker, cleaner and easier to navigate. The more affordable Standard version benefits from iZotope’s new Native Instruments NKS Support, Mach EQ module and other small updates throughout the software that improve the overall functionality. Just like in previous updates to the master suite, the Advanced version allows for standalone usage of the individual modules as well as more overall updates. What’s New in Ozone 9?Īs with every new generation Ozone 9 offers its brand-new modules only for users of their Advanced package.
It consists of different modules (plugins) that can either be loaded individually in a DAW (Advanced package only) or within Ozones mother plugin, which operates much like SoundToys Effect Rack or Antelope Audios AFX2DAW, but looks slicker and more futuristic. The Ozone is a package of plugins developed specifically for mastering studios and engineers.
Having nearly 20 years of experience and time to perfect their products, every single one of these plugin packages is now incredibly sophisticated and refined. They have developed individual packages of plugins that serve the needs of people operating in Recording, Mixing, Mastering, Music Production, and Sound Design environments. What is Ozone?įounded in 2001, the US giant software developer iZotope caters to nearly every music-making or processing sector of the industry. Now, a year later, the dust has settled, and we are here to test the Ozone’s new features. In September 2019 this mastering suite introduced new features like Tonal Rebalance as well as a Low-End Focus module yet efficiency went up with lower power consumption and faster loading times. As the world embraces AI and machine learning so does iZotope with their 9th edition of Ozone.
