Ozone Mastering AB

Vocals too high in the mix? Too low? Not even sure? Snare sounds wonky? And how do I make everything louder than everything else? Step in, step in, for your mix Viagra from people who know the secrets.

To be fair, the AI version sounds OK, but it's not exactly subtle. There are things about it I'd like to change. It would be nice to run the AI and then tweak it afterwards.

I'll see if I can get it from Plugin Collective next week.

Yeah that sucks. :frown:

This is why you don't pay for plug ins unless you really know what you're getting. There's always a free option. Always.
Yeah... I figured they wouldn't have downgraded it. What a shower of cocks. Oh well, it wasn't expensive

Well in a way you did at least me a favor. I now know to NEVER upgrade my current version. :illdrinktothat:

Haha, buy me a pint when you next make it to the UK.

I think it was $35 so that's only about £30

Have you tried pressing all the other buttons to give you different AI treatments to see if they're any good?

And that's a huge black render. I've never come close to anything like that... :lollers: Didn't sound too bad though, on my laptop anyway. Loud!

Yeah, I've clicked on two or three others. I think I have a preference for Pop or Country so far. They tend to be a bit less full on.

I don't think it sounds bad... but it's hard to directly A/B it cos its so fucking loud.

I now have version 9 for free. I'll see how they compare. I think what I'd like to try is the one click of version 10 and then modify it with the functionality of version 9

So the question is: can it run in a standalone/command-line mode on Linux? If so, that's something I'd be interested in. Even crappy mastering that I can automate is better than what I'm currently doing.

Of course it can, and you should buy the full Ozone experience for several thousand dollars and report back on how it goes... :biggrin:

Raises an interesting point - if you've been around long enough and even tangentially exposed to computers for long enough, you know what a command line is - even if you couldn't actually use any commands. Also Linux, the OS run on penguins.

But anyone who's probably less than 50 and first came to computers via Windows 3.0 - 30 years old now - or later, has maybe not experienced such wonders, unless they're actually an IT person.

I'm doing a javascript course to keep the brain active. Plenty of command line action there... :nyuk:

There was an weird cutoff in my friend's group. We all had computers and technology (cause video games), but I was slightly older, so I was the only one who started out with DOS computers. My buddies really struggled with CLI basics
