Ozone 9 Advanced’s intelligent processing identifies where each focus lies in the spectrum, and will allow you to boost or attenuate it by an amount of your choosing. You can toggle between three focal points: Vocals, Bass, and Drums. Ozone 9 Advanced’s new Master Rebalance module helps you have the last say in a mix, without complicating the process with dozens of stems that you may or may not have access to. While clever EQ decisions might satisfy these goals, there can be unintended consequences you might also end up boosting a guitar along with the vocal, or softening the floor tom when you only meant to attenuate the synth bass. When working on a master, you may realize that the song could benefit from just a tad more vocals, or just slightly less bass.


Master RebalanceĪ unique aspect of mastering is that you typically only have access to a bounce of the final mix (sometimes you have the stems, but once you start messing with them you’re really mixing rather than mastering). In this feature guide, let’s explore three modules in particular and learn how they can enhance your mastering workflow. Ozone 9 Advanced not only expands upon Master Assistant, but also introduces several brand-new features that help you take mastering into your hands in innovative ways. For example, if you’re a long-time Ozone user, you might already be familiar with Master Assistant, a feature that gives you a logical starting point based off a reference and/or your designated preferences around style, intensity, destination, etc. That said, Ozone 9 Advanced also has an array of intelligent, machine learning-powered features that separate it from the crowd. It comes with top-notch versions of all the standard tools you might need when you’re mastering: a dynamic EQ, compressor, exciter, spectral shaper, imager, limiter, and much more. IZotope’s Ozone 9 Advanced is an all-in-one mastering suite that allows you to master with confidence at any level, without interrupting your workflow.
