You can turn soft clipping on for the EQ module and put the EQ after the limiter to get super snappy little tweaks to top end. Great for electronic music
Good one! Ozone keeps getting better. The Assistant keeps getting smarter. Spend time learning this tool and save $$$ on sending tracks to a mastering service. The main drawback I see is that you will probably be monitoring in the same basement studio that you mixed in...
thanks for introducing me to this plugin. i've been in analysis paralysis about finishing my album because i've been stuck deciding how to get it mastered. didn't have $2k to spend on a great mastering engineer for my hobby project, and i've done everything else myself. this gives me the confidence to just get it done and get it out. many thanks
great plugin in, great video! i would love to see a video on phase response in eq and how to train your ears to hear it. i feel like there are plenty of videos explainig how phase response of different eqs work theoretically, but i would love to see a video about you're practical approach of using different phase settings like linear phase, natural phase, how to listen for differences and so on :)
It’s pretty annoying that they seem to be releasing a new version every year and the upgrade from a previous Advanced version is really expensive ($149 or $99 on discount) for relatively small incremental improvements. Love the product for what it does though.
Funny, I bought them over Fabfilter BECAUSE they update every year. I like companies that actively fight to stay on the leading edge. If you don't like their new features then don't upgrade.
Have Ozone 9 but unless you are into the spectral and tonal shaping tools i don't see a lot here that improves. I see the constant gain is added to maximiser which would be the main addition. Ozone's pretty alright! I actually hate the UI though because a lot seems to go on under the hood and the spectraliser lacks graph lines, EQ selection is all over the place and covers the graph or other EQ points and gets annoying, then it adds bands when you try and click out. RE: the constant gain. I have to manually do this in O9. Its got 'gain match' but it does so by boosting the unprocessed track ffs. Then it clips so you have to turn down the output. If you have other track plugins like i do i then have to compare the output outside of ozone to get a true idea of starting point vs. final master. Exciter i think is marvellous on either triode setting. I use that on individual tracks. I don't know of another tube plugin that quite does what it does for low end instruments. I quite like Vintage Tape but again, i'd rather use it on individual tracks. Does weird things removing sub or re-eqing tracks too much for a master. I'll still to Kazrog True Iron for the buss. Unfortunately this is a complete CPU killer. I got their 'imager' as standalone for free. I wish these were available as separate when you get Ozone so the whole suite doesn't need to be run just to stick exciter on the kick! Vintage Comp is well fluttery, and doesn't sound like any other vintage comp plugin i have. I can't ever get any character out of it myself... I'll stick to the Kazrog true dynamics or other vari-mu emulations for glue. If its other dynamics then the 'dynamics' one can be fine- nothing that special but not fluttery like the other. Maximiser: IRC II rules usually. I feel the later numbers are adding things other than limiting or being too clever, less transparent, more fluttery, and have multiband in. III can work but i tend to select between. I'll ignore the descriptions though: 'pumping' worked great for acoustic folk, but not for anything i wanted to 'pump' like techno haha. There is no clipper? Maybe in 11. I find it important to get a transparent balance of clipping and limiting if any large amount of gain reduction is needed (usually when track is highly dynamic like post-rock)
Thanks man, I finally get all the most important points re. with this amazing and most useful piece of software, big up for covering it all in the clearest and wisest way in less than 40 minutes!
really nice and clear presentation of this plugin(s). wish you talked a bit about the delta function, the little "ear" up on the left. I found the more and more useful . great job !! (maybe better then the Ozone guys when they presented this one but Shhhhh don't tell anyone I said that). :)
Couple more things - IRC 4 uses a certain amount of multiband processing before the limiter and under the hood to aid in transparency. Stereo independence controls on the maximizer aren’t necessarily for favoriting a left or right part of the tune in like a 6os style stereo panning scheme. Rather, these controls are designed to help you optimize stereo width and loudness for your particular track. These controls aren’t localized to ozone - you get them in fabfilter and DMG as well.
I don't really get ozone. It was included in the NI komplete edition i purchased in spring of this year. I'm producing, mixing and mastering my own tracks in one go. Usually i use ozone 10 on the "mastering" channel so after all the mix busses w compressors etc. The only plugin after ozone is then the tdr limiter ge because i know how to use this limiter and it offers all the functionalities i need for final limiting. It's kind of a weird spot because all the functionalities ozone offers i can adress directly at the source. Yes, sometimes it's easier to just eq the whole thing w ozone instead of fiddeling with the bus/channel eqs. But most times ozone for me is just a "second pair of ears" that makes suggestions on what to adress in the mix. Idk how do other people use ozone? Ideas r welcome :)
Some use it as an all-in-one mastering tool; some rely more heavily on its AI assistant features… personally, I find its value for me more with its modules. Like, Impact in particular works quite nice for some subtle yet significant tweaks that nothing else in my toolbox can. And the limiters work quite well - especially since I ditched Slate’s subscription so no more of their FG-X. I’ve used a few others at times, but typically use other plugins that’d do the same as other modules (i.e. Pro-MB & Shadow Hills for multiband & compression, Pro-Q for EQ). Sometimes Low Impact adds a nice extra touch. Sometimes using Imager or Exciter on individual tracks work quite nicely. Or even just testing what small tweaks can be made at the end with these tools produces great subtle touches might not have otherwise gotten. Just upgraged from 10 to 11 though as seems the Clarity module and the Transient/Sustain features even just by themselves will likely get some of my mixes that extra 10% that makes it worthwhile. Similar to how The God Particle and Kraftur were pretty big game-changers - small stuff that makes a BIG difference once finding a flow with ‘em. though at the end of the day, it's just another set of tools - ultimately comes down to how you choose to utilize them, whether together or individually, for whatever fits one's particular needs & flow.
The Vintage Limiter on Modern mode with a pretty small Character is the stupidiest thing to get loud master. I never been so loud since I use Vintage + Maximizer (and of course a well done mix that allows loudness material). But Also, I love how the vintage limiter sounds, only having 0.3dB of gain reduction, get a decent loudness is something I love. To me it's on every master I do and also some mixes just to make sure I can go loud without over limiting my output. This really is something.
You are the king of kings. Thanks for your iq and musicality, your expertise and your way to explain things in a understadeble way, so we dont have to buy snakeoil from hustlers. Youre the best in this game. Gonna support you like you have supported so many of us newbies/intermediate wannabe producers/musicians. Thank you❤️
It seems that there's a little cannibalization between spectral shaper, balancer and clarity module. They are very similar but it was like "we developed it, so put it into like we offer more modules"
Well, it started as Low End Focus at first, then they tried to apply it for higher frequencies with different algorithms and when you look at them, one would really prefer different options for different frequency bands. And you can argue it could be in just one module anyways, but that would also mean an increased latency even if you just needed one thing out of those three. And latency and loading times already are not the strongest suite of Ozone.
Please tell me, I don’t understand why there is a limiter slider with adjustments like on the compressor in the Dynamics (compressor) section? The compressor itself is clear what it does, but the limiter, if there is a maximizer and a vintage limiter in the line, what does it do and how obligatory is its use?
It’s good to have if you want to limit different bands separately before applying vintage limiter / maximiser to the whole mix. Nothing is obligatory :)
You hinted you may begin using Ozone in your workflow? I know you are a big Sonible and Fabfilter fan, I would be interested in from mastering perspective your thoughts on comparisons and pros/cons of each (I have all 3 myself)? BTW I've been following you for years, I've learnt a lot from you and find you a source of honest real-world knowledge. Ozone does not seem to have any oversampling options anywhere other than the Exciter which I do wonder if an issue.
Do you know is Izotope Essentials allows the same mastering as you did in the video? I have always mastered by ear and had some success. From what I am hearing from you is that there are presets available I can use and modify. And I can inport a track - have it analyzed - and sort of copy it's settings (Aproximated)? Thanks so much
Great video and an exciting upgrade, but when are those genres going to become more inclusive of electronica, downtempo, ambient etc? I have a track that features a heavily side chained synth, and it was recognised by Mastering Assistant as reggae! I kind of get the logic, but it lacks subtlety.
Maybe I didn't hear you talking about Bit rate and one button that is promoted to fix uneven Bits in Wave From/ Audio information. Can you talk something more about that , Ozone had visual Bit's next to Diether option on the same page but I don't know how it's now but it was feature that is unique.
it's cool to see you making an in-depth tutorial the oldschool way again. all these modern vlog formats lately are cool and all, but somtimes you just have to go back to the essence :) I suppose you were paid for this though? Would be cool to see you making a voluntary tutorial on something you just love to use
@@Whiteseastudio you should be, tbh. everyone knows you. this video will likely boost izotope's sales massively. and they have enough money to pay a few content creators. if they don't even pay you, who do they even pay?
Hey! been loving your videos, but on this one you didn't actually explain how you'd use it (for ex on this song) you only said what it does.. It'd be cool to have a little mastering vid with this vst. 🖖
Short answer: yes. Ozone has three options for the multiband crossovers - Digital (which is linear phase), Analog (which is minimum phase) and the default Hybrid (which has the perfect reconstruction of linear phase with lower latency)
-14 LUFS seems low to me. Isn’t loudness normalization off by default on Spotify? If I give them anything lower than -10, I hear clients say, “my mic is too low in a playlist…”
With the imagers aren't you always cutting from the sides? Which plugin of this genre do that. Like i have a guitar only in the stereo side, if i collapse in mono it disappear or am i wrong?
You generally highpass the sides so when you collapse to mono you don't screw up the bass phase. As each octave doubles the amount of frequencies, there's a lot more room for sound at the top rather than the low end. So, basically you're high passing the sides. You might lose some of your fundamental in the guitar if it's panned all the way to the side and you cut too much. I use Pro-Q on my master's in side mode and cut very specifically where I want, also add some dynamic expanders to add more transient and detail on the sides.
The Clarity Part is the most interesting to me coming from Ozone 10 advanced. Do you think Neutron 5 will be coming out soon? I notice Ozone 10 came out Sept 2022 and now we have 11 in Sept 2023. Interesting we didn't get a Nuetron 5 before the newest Ozone.
Don't know about Neutron, but I read a week ago someone mentioning that RX 11 be in beta now. But I can't confirm as I don't have access to beta testing.
Ik twijfel over de upgrade, ik heb ozone 10 maar vind die €168,- wel erg veel die ze er voor vragen. Bedankt voor de uitvoerige uitleg, zeer bruikbaar Wytse. Prettig weekend gewenst 😎👍✌️
Op de Native Instruments site is de update maar 105 Euro maar die kan je niet gebruiken omdat Ozone geregistreerd is op de Izotope site. Je kan ook een Revolut account starten, je Euro’s omzetten naar dollars en de update in dollars kopen. In dollars is de update $149, dat is zo’n 139 Euro dus ook goedkoper. Een upgrade prijs van 50 Euro was netter geweest
I agree with him. I mix/master a lot of modern rap with heavy transients and the Ozone Maximizer has a punchier sound and also allows soft clipping which can add some saturation to your song and also keep that punchy sound, The Fab L2 isn't a maximizer it's just a Limiter. A limiter and a maximizer are both types of compressors that reduce the dynamic range of audio material. However, a limiter only compresses the peaks that exceed a certain threshold, while a maximizer compresses and boosts the entire signal above a certain threshold. A maximizer uses a limiter as part of its process, but a limiter does not have the full features of a maximizer.
You can turn soft clipping on for the EQ module and put the EQ after the limiter to get super snappy little tweaks to top end. Great for electronic music
The demo track was on point this time. Singing it in my head the whole day

you can get them Mastered for Less then 50$ and they just run isotope , yet its a good guide but don't use it , tweak it to your liking's

Short answer: yes.
Ozone has three options for the multiband crossovers - Digital (which is linear phase), Analog (which is minimum phase) and the default Hybrid (which has the perfect reconstruction of linear phase with lower latency)
Any other videos featuring ozone 11 Advanced? Cause I need a deeper dive into advanced techniques.
Would you recommend any of these modules to be used for non-mastering chain? Thinking about the vintage EQ or multiband modules.
Thank you so much!
Great tutorial ❤
Awesome ! I hope you'll do the same with Neutron
Is it worth it to get Advanced for the extra modules?

A maximizer uses a limiter as part of its process, but a limiter does not have the full features of a maximizer.
DMG limitless would get my vote.
Thankyou gentleman
OZ maximizer is great just not when the true peak is turned on
Very helpful thanks
Phase reponse video let's gooo !
I can officially say that I'm going to make this, however, this can take a few months to fully cover this subject and finish the video...
Please do a video about phase response
That would be interesting
