iZotope's Vintage Tape module for Ozone 7 Advanced lets you add the uniquely rich, warm sound of tape saturation to your digital recordings, complete with all the juicy coloration, distortion, and phase anomalies that make your cherished albums of yesteryear sound so awesome. Dial in analog tone for more musical-sounding masters with added dimensionality, girth, and depth.

Walk into any world-class control room and you'll see one or more classic tube Pultec equalizers. And you'll have access to all that delightful Pultec richness, warmth, and color from within Ozone 7 Advanced, courtesy of its Vintage EQ module. Brighten your masters, tame excessive lows, and flesh out your digital recordings. The module's discrete frequency selections allow you to boost and cut separately (and simultaneously) - just like a real Pultec - so you can sculpt proper low-end weight, without boominess.

A single-band compression module for subtly warming and sweetening your masters, the Vintage Compressor gives you a program-dependent release that tailors release shapes to adapt naturally - and musically - to your input signal. With it, you can thicken midrange, tighten up and round out the bottom, sparkle up the highs - all with authentic, vintage-flavored sonic goodness.

iZotope Ozone 7 gives you a real-time preview of how your master will sound in a variety of industry-standard codecs. Within your DAW or in standalone mode, the Codec Preview module delivers the sound of a compressed master. This easy-to-use tool lets you instantly make tweaks to optimize your audio for streaming or online music stores. Take it from us - Codec Preview is a tremendous boost to your workflow.

Sweetwater engineers know the value of a killer bus limiter that injects your 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 fatness characteristic 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, or album name - and more.
