Professional use for mastering & production of electronic and hybrid music, including production of online streaming CDs and tracks, for over 2,5 years, in a DAW with
Logic Pro X on iMac. Excellent intégration as VST and plugs-in in Logic Pro. Excellent ergonomie for this complex software with multiple parameters.
Excellent mix and production software. Acquired in the N.I. Mix and master advanced bundled with Neutron and Neoverb, Iris elements. Neutron 4 and Ozone 10, Together with Neoverb, provide an excellent combination.
Started with Ozone 9, standard, then Ozone 10 in a bundle. overall, Ozone 10 is powerful, with an excellent ergonomy and a very impressive master assistant, with the visual presentation of the sound. It requires a certain built experience to master the multiple possibilities, as well a knowledge in mix ing and mastering, production of final tracks. The mastering assistant is very helpful to reach a first level of fair quality, even as a non professional. To our experience, Ozone 10 requires a reasonable understanding of mix, mastering and production concept, and takes several months practice to increase one’s mastering of master-production and powerful tool. For beginners we do recommend they train with online courses or videos on mastering and production. Izotope videos and web pages provide an excellent entry-point in this perspective.
Our sole criticising of Izotope (and Native Instruments, which also sell Izotope) is about the constantly changing company price policy, varying with the different promotions, change of Version, or sale circuit. It is completely unreadable, compared with companies like Arturia, Waldorf, Finale,… The ‘Mix and Master Bundle advanced’ pricing didn’t take into account the fact I had previously acquired an Ozone standard, with other elements. Overall budget is 100€ for Ozone 9 standard edition, plus 258€ for Mix and Master Bundle including Ozone 10. The quality to price ratio is excellent, considering the great quality of the tools provided. But, it is normal, as we had bought Ozone standard to Izotope, to which we were registered as user, we found better pricing with a Native sale, not taking into account our quality of Ozone client ? Not understandable, confusing.
From our perspective, Izotope, now Native’s price policy is a strong disincentive to go further in investing in N.I. or Izotope products, other than with the current package we acquired. The quality of Izotope products is quite high, as the level of service it provides to the musician.On the opposite, the lack of readability of the pricing policy is a strong desincentive. The client musician has too often the impression he bought the product at a higher price, to see a much lower offers a few weeks after.
The Izotope innovation policy with the regular Ozone upgrades provides an excellent professional tool, always up to date for the best production, with more and more guide and semi artificial intelligence aids for mastering and production.
En résumé, un excellent produit professionel, excellent investissement de long terme pour un groupe ou un musiciens qui produit ses CDs. Demande un investissement dans la technique de mastering et production et quelques mois pour le maîtriser. Dommage que la politique de prix de Izotope semble excessif et soit peu lisible.
