Izotope Ozone 3 Analog Modeling Plug in iZotope Ozone 3 combines analog modeling with 64-bit digital precision to deliver a complete integrated suite of world-class mastering processors.
Ozone 3 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's technically impossible to get this sound quality and resolution by chaining separate plug-ins together. From the warm sound of tube-modeled equalizers to the pure transparency of linear phase filters, Ozone 3 provides the tools and the technology you need to deliver top-notch audio masters.

Multi-band Dynamics
Up to four bands of analog-modeled compression, limiting and expansion with a smooth sound and a fine degree of control
- 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).
- RMS and peak detection modes.
Paragraphic EQ
Shape your mix with eight bands of bell, high-pass, low-pass, high-shelf or low-shelf filters overlaid on a fully configurable spectrum analyzer.
- 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.
- Matching mode lets you use spectrum snapshots of recordings to create "automatic" EQ curves.
Multi-band Harmonic Exciter
Up to four bands of multi-band 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 multi-band time offset controls for tightening and adding "attack" to bass and kick.
Multi-band Stereo Imaging
Up to four bands of multi-band 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 multi-band channel delay controls for adjusting the perceived location of the stereo field or correcting tape 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 cutoffand more
- Special controls for soloing 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 transparent digital loudness maximizers.
- Surpasses the quality of competing Loudness Maximizers.
- Intelligent release control technology.
- 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.
- Includes MBIT+ dither for psychoacoustically optimal word length reduction, which outperforms competing algorithms
- Integrated DC offset filtering, auto-blanking anddither 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
