Ozone 9 Advanced. Improved performance. Native Instruments NKS Support. Master Assistant. Master Rebalance. Low End Focus. Tonal Balance Control plug-in.
An improved Match EQ, now its own module
Previously one of the Ozone EQ’s best-kept secrets, we’ve overhauled Match EQ with new functionality and improvements that make it an even more powerful tool for matching the vibe of your favorite reference tracks. Match EQ is now a completely separate module in Ozone 9, meaning you don’t have to take up an EQ slot to use it in your chain. You can now use one of your loaded reference tracks in the Ozone 9 Track Referencing menu to create a unique EQ snapshot, rather than needing to manually play sound through the plug-in.
If you only want to match a certain part of a mix (just the high end, for example), you now have boundary controls to limit the matching to a certain frequency range. You can now save your favorite Match EQ snapshots as presets to quickly use on other projects, without needing to re-learn the reference.
