Activate master assistant to analyze playback, set up a mastering chain, and quickly get in the ballpark; then refine with tone match, dynamics match, and module controls.
Explore Izotope Ozone 10's header, device chain, module interface, and IO panel, switch between mastering assistant and detailed view, and leverage the undo history for mastering workflow.
Explore the device chain and how the order of effects shapes guitar and vocal tones, using exciter and eq to illustrate how high-end frequencies interact in mastering.
Navigate the module interface to treat signals as stereo, left-right, or mid-side, apply different boosts and cuts, solo mids or sides, and reset to defaults when needed.
Explore the exciter in Ozone 10, using four bands to apply saturation, adjust mix and amount, and switch between modes like tube, analog, tape, and warm for creative mastering.
Explore the vintage compressor in Ozone, modeled after classic circuits with balanced, sharp, and smooth modes, auto makeup gain, and an EQ-based focus on mids for targeted compression.
Explore vintage EQ modeled after analog circuitry, dialing cutoff frequencies and boosting or cutting across low, low-mid, mid-high, and high bands for acoustic recordings.
Explore vintage tape emulation as a subtle mastering tool, simulating tape distortion through speed, input drive, bias, and harmonics to add tape color and high/low emphasis without overpowering the mix.
Apply a low end focus to bring out the buried bass guitar near the cue, so dynamics processing happens after it, then use the punchy setting to emphasize its attacks.
Master compression settings in Izotope Ozone 10 by using the learn module to tailor low, mid, and high bands, apply automatic makeup gain, and finish with the limiter Maximizer.
Fine-tune a track's beginning and end with trims and fades, including a tiny inaudible fade in, a precise end fade to a zero crossing, and proper dither during export.
Ozone is a plugin program made by Izotope and is the industry standard tool for professional audio mastering. With this class my goal is to bring that tool to everyone through a comprehensive method that anyone can learn. I'll minimize that math and algorithms involved in compression and exicters, and focus on what we hear, and how to make your tracks sound GREAT.
At the core of it, audio mastering has one simple goal: to make your music as loud and clear as possible. We want to be sure your track sounds amazing on Spotify, on your car speakers, on your earbuds, in the studio, and everywhere else.
In this class I'll be mastering two tracks: The first is an electronic/hip-hop track. The second a big rock track with distorted guitars, acoustic drums, and a live-sounding recording. Regardless, I'll be preparing you to master any genre of music using Ozone.

Ozone 10 runs as a plugin to any audio program. So it won't matter what DAW you are using at all. If you are a Logic user, FL Studio user, Cubase user, Bitwig user, Studio One user, Pro Tools user, or anything else - it will all work. You will be able to do all of the techniques that I walk you through in any audio application.
