Sweetwater engineers know the value of a killer bus limiter that injects mixes with the slam factor that demands attention. Glue your mixes together and load 'em with character with the Vintage Limiter's warm, analog-sounding final-stage limiting - all with the effortlessness and precision of digital. Ozone 7's Vintage Limiter imparts a natural feel to harsh-sounding digital masters, providing the luxurious warmth and fat characteristics of your favorite classic analog recordings.

A Dynamic EQ is a powerful tool that combines the precision of an equalizer with the musical ballistics of a compressor. Dynamic EQ utilizes the concept of a multiband compressor, but replaces crossover filters with traditional EQ filter shapes. This gives you unprecedented control over the dynamics of particular frequencies of your mix. Best of all, you can process your audio without any artifacts audible to the listener.

Ozone 7 boasts an upgraded version of Maximizer, iZotope's legendary mastering limiter. Featuring a new algorithm (IRC IV) that offers you both frequency-specific and multiband operation, Maximizer's focused settings deliver optimal results without limiter overcompensation. The result is even more transparent-sounding mixes with less pumping at higher volumes - perfect for when you need to tame bass drum peaks without causing your vocals to pump.

iZotope Ozone 7 lets you specify your preferred file formats for export, choosing from a selection of popular uncompressed and compressed codecs such as MP3, WAV, or AAC. No more outputting to WAV and then using a separate MP3 converter! Now with Ozone 7, you can export your digital formats directly from your source files and even add metadata before export, such as track, artist, album name, and more.
