"Great sound, Great bang for the Buck...."

Value:
Great slef mastering solution for Demos or better yet FINISHED product. Ilittle time in learning how to use it will give great results.

Desirability:
VERY MUCH SO

Sound:
Good set of mastering suite tools, nice analogue character

Ease of Use:
Very comprehensive set of presets to start from

Support:
Great support

"Avoid Ozone 3. Its interface and instructions are absolutely self defeating, self contradicting, useless and a guaranteed waste"

Feature:
Seems to have excellent festures but they're nearly unusable by anyone except doctoral audio engineers

Quality:
This I leave blank because there's no way to know, the interface and instructions are so terrible, and lacking in self- or cross-reference

Desirability:
Looks great visually. Ratings mean nothing however

Sound:
Sound potential very good

Ease of Use:
The user interface is AWFUL. User "manual" is worse. Try interpreting 5,000 year old Mesopotamian cuneiform fragments spread over 1000 years and 1000 miles and you'll get the idea. There isn't even an 'all clear' or 'resort to default' command ANYWHERE except in one tiny area, and once the user tries something they're stuck with it every time they open Ozone 3, no matter what else is tried.

Support:
Time will tell. Past experiences were interesting in that they acknowledged the worst failings of their interface and user manual very quickly.

Overall:
Bills itself as user friendly. It is anything but. Pretty but almost useless graphics to anyone but a quantum physicist, and even a doctoral audio engineer would have trouble with the arbitrariness and lack of explanation of it.

Ozone combines analog modeling with 64-bit digital precision to deliver a complete set of world class mastering processors.

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.

Ozone is a system of top quality 64-bit DSP algorithms, complemented with enhanced visual meter displays, and integrated in an interface that makes it incredibly easy to get incredibly good masters.

iZotope Ozone isn't a collection of plug-ins. It's a single interface that combines all of the required mastering tools in one system. This makes it easier to use, easier to understand the mix, and -- well -- it just sounds better because, once the signal goes in, it's all 64-bit processing until it comes out. It's technically impossible to get this sound quality and resolution by chaining separate plug-ins together.

Multiband Dynamics:
Up to four bands of multiband dynamics that carefully emulate the response of analog circuitry, providing natural-sounding compression, expansion, and limiting

Real time visualization of the dynamics within each band, including gain reduction meters, level histograms and X-Y compression curves.

Analog or digital linear phase crossovers with adjustable Q (bandwidth).

Controls for comparing "gain when bypassed", offsetting overall band gain and muting, bypassing and solo'ing individual bands.

Paragraphic EQ:
Shape the tone with eight nodes of bell, highpass, lowpass, highshelf or lowshelf filters overlaid on an ultra fast spectrum display.

Choose from analog modeled EQ with "soft saturation" modeling or digital linear phase filtering with up to 16,000 bands of precision.

Compare your mixes with a powerful spectrum analyzer that offers real time and average modes, critical or third octave bands and snapshots.

Use spectrum snapshots of recordings to create "automatic" EQ curves.

Multiband Harmonic Exciter:
Up to four bands of multiband excitation for adding warmth, sparkle or shine to your mixes.

Choose from retro, tape or tube modeled excitation with adjustable amount and mix controls for each band.

Unique multiband time offset controls for tightening and adding "attack" to bass and kick.

Multiband Stereo Imaging:
Up to four bands of multiband stereo widening for adding space to your mix without losing the bass.

Visualize the stereo image with a powerful phase/channel meter display that highlights imaging, phase and potential canceling problems

Apply multiband channel delay controls for adjusting the perceived location of the stereo field or correcting tape azimuth errors.

Mastering Reverb:
Dual mode reverb for adding ambience to your mix.

Selectable plate or room modeling algorithms for "studio" or "acoustic" ambience.

Control room size, predelay, width, frequency cutoff and more

Special controls for solo'in the wet signal, adjusting the frequency response and monitoring the width and phase of the reverb signal.

Loudness Maximizer:
Push the level without overloading with analog modeled or digital transparent loudness maximizers.

Intelligent release control technology with predictive limiting of "intersample clipping".

Adjustable threshold, margin, release and character controls.

Visual feedback provided through limiting gain reduction meters and overall loudness histograms.

Dither:
Prepare audio for CD with word-length reduction and high order psychoacoustic shaped dither.

Choose from three types of noise shaped dither algorithms.

Integrated DC offset filtering, auto-blanking and dither harmonic suppression for dynamic and transparent conversions.

Unique set of bit scopes and DC level meters provide a complete view of the digital bitstream and conversion process.

Additional Features:
Work faster, easier and smarter

Manage presets with a modular integrated preset system.

Customize the signal processing order with a unique graphical flowchart.

Automate over 150 parameters through automation.

Create A/B comparisons or step back through your tweaks with unlimited undo and history operations.
