Ozone 9 comes with much more style-like graphics Neurons 3 e Nectar 3. On the other hand, the Tonal Balance plugin, in version 2, is also available with the Standard version. Not available in this Standard Version, is the codec preview function, that is the possibility to choose, without exporting anything, the type of codec with which we would like to export our track after having mastered it. The latter optimizes the bass range, making it sharper, with few parameters and quickly enough, while the Master Rebalance, on the other hand, offers the possibility of separately processing the vocal, drum and bass gain in a stereo mix. Another absence with respect to the Top version is that of the two new processors Master Rebalance e Low End Focus. Basically you can use everything alone and only within the 'mother' version of the program, both in stand-alone and host use through your own reference DAW.

The version we are going to analyze differs from that Advanced primarily due to the absence of individual processors available as separate plugins.

We will start in this article from the main product, namely Izotope Ozone 9, which was provided to us in its Standard version (there are also the Element and Advanced versions on the market).
