What is Ozone?

Master your music with Ozone, use AI driven analysis to build a professional mastering chain and refine it with detailed controls for release ready sound

Ozone is a specialized mastering solution designed to guide users through the final stage of music production. The software analyzes a mix and suggests a mastering chain that addresses tonal balance, dynamics, and loudness based on genre and reference targets. While AI suggestions speed up the process, Ozone provides full control over each module, allowing experienced engineers to shape the sound precisely. Ozone is used both by independent artists mastering their own tracks and by professionals seeking efficiency. A best practice workflow is to apply the Master Assistant, review the proposed chain, and then fine-tune modules such as EQ, dynamics, and maximizer. Pricing varies by edition, so entry cost depends on the version selected. Ozone is best suited for users who want modern loudness standards and competitive polish without sacrificing creative intent.
