iZotope has announced the release of Ozone, a 64-bit system of analog modeled
mastering effects in one DirectX plug-in.
Ozone provides the following effects modules, meters, and functionality:
- Four bands of multiband dynamics that carefully emulate the response of analog circuitry, providing compression, expansion, limiting and gating.
- Real-time visualization of the dynamics within each band
- Harmonic excitation based on analog tube saturation models. Multiband excitation with adjustable crossovers to add extended bass, sizzling highs, or anything in between
- Multiband parametric EQ with "soft saturation" modeling overlaid on a spectrum display
- Reverb with control over room size, frequency cutoff, damping, and more
- Phase meter and vectorscope displays that highlight imaging, phase and potential canceling problems
- Stereo imaging controls including multiband widening and multiband delays
- A loudness maximizer with soft and brickwall limiting modes.
- A unique signal flow interface that allows you to customize the order of the modules while still providing 64-bit processing through the entire mastering chain.
- An Undo/History list that lets you track your tweaks and go back to previous settings with the click of a mouse
- A spectrum analyzer that offers real time and average modes, snapshots, and more
iZotope Ozone is available now for systems running Windows 95, 98, NT, ME, 2000 and XP. For more information, visit their web site at www.izotope.com. |
