iZotope Ozone – is it worth the money?

[Shift Gorden]

I have bought Izoptope Neutron,you can use it all across your mixer channels etc.Its really good,check it out on their website has a learning assistant too which is really cool

One more question, hehe. I think I will buy the $249.00 Neutron, but I now see that they also sell a $349 Neutron Advanced. That's a lot of money right now, but I assume that the $249.00 Neutron is good enough?

Thanks

Yeah mate, I'd say the regular one is enough. The only difference is with Advanced you can use the compressor, EQ, etc, as separate plugins - i.e. you don't have to load the whole Neutron channel strip to use them. On, there's no mixing 7.1 surround with the regular one - which you're probably not going to do anyway.

You'll like it mate! I think there's a demo you can download just to check it out.

I agree with Shift Gordon

I have bought the non advanced Neutron,more than enough going on there for me,just need to find the time away from work to make some new music,lol

It is worth the money if you need it. However, it is actually a luxury plug. I could probably get similar results with Ableton's built in plugins and freeware plugins if I had too and I wasn't so lazy. Ozone sounds great and is a time saver. You can get a mix slamming for the car or Soundcloud fast. For me, a plugin that gets the job 80% there almost immediately and lets me spend my time on the last 20% to get it sounding the way I want is worth the money.
