iZotope's Ozone combines analog modeling with 64-bit digital precision to deliver a complete integrated suite of world-class mastering processors.
Ozone is a complete mastering system in a single integrated plug-in includes eight essential mastering tools: Maximizer, Equalizer, Multiband Dynamics, Multiband Stereo Imaging, Post Equalizer, Multiband Harmonic Exciter, Reverb, and Dithering.
Ozone isn't a collection of plug-ins, it's a single powerful interface that combines all the required mastering tools in one system. This makes it easier to use and to understand the mix-and it sounds better because all processing is done via 64-bit DSP until final output.
It is technically impossible to get this sound quality and resolution by chaining separate plugins together.
From the warm sound of tube-modeled equalizers to the pure transparency of linear phase filters, Ozone provides the tools and the technology you need to deliver top-notch audio masters.
Here are some key features of "Ozone":
