[@albertk5552]

Just purchased Ozone in the last days... i know it's a great weapon but power is nothing without control. So thank you very much, for giving a quick and so on the point overview! All love!

[@ProjectHMF]

14:07 I've heard a lot of people saying that I should have a -1db ceiling when mastering for streaming platforms to prevent distortion and stuff. Im curious, why did you put the ceiling at -0.1? 🤔

[@grandiosity360]

THanks for the video! : ) Just curious, at about 23.15, why is the rms meter in ozone showing 4-7 when your other meter shows around 8? Is the latter more doing an average kind of metering?

[@dannyday1984]

I really prefer the Mastering Assistant in Ozone 9. I found that, for me, MA in O9 simply balances the frequency and sets the limiter where you tell it to (low, mid, or high intensity). But O10 throws all the new modules into it and is more like a HYPE Assistant. Especially if you keep the Impact module on. Just sounds harsh and crunchy to me. I compared the same song in both O9 and O10 mastering assistants and found that if I turn off Impact and Imager then it's very close to what O9 suggests...but not exact. The EQ curves are similar, but the EQ curve in O10 is taking into account the fact that Stabilizer is also doing some work. I don't know...I liked using the MA in O9 to give me a good frequency balance, and then I would finalize that with a Pink Noise setting in the Match EQ before going into the limiter, where I would set the level myself. I feel like O10 MA is just over-cooking too much and that's dangerous because then a lot of people will start releasing music online using this. We don't need MORE hype, rather we need LESS in our masters. I wish they somehow incorporated a Legacy option in the O10 MA. Thankfully I can still use O9.

[@jimmolinamusic]

I completely agree! I thought it was just me!

[@WTFaulkner]

Also prefer using the interface stand-alone and not having to use it as a plug-in within a DAW. Also, anyone else think the track he's using in this vid has too much saturation on it to begin with? Literally everything is distorting

[@anthonyh1298]

@wtfaulkner yep sounds like someone went heavy on a tape saturator. Doesn't do much for the track imo, and there's nothing to be done about it at the mastering stage 🤷🏻‍♂️ rolling off the bottom end did help a lot

[@tugaryev]

yeah, i agree

[@erikguevara777]

Hi streaky I see you used 0.1db ceiling on maximizer/limiter , do you still use the -1.0db on the fader of record track for streaming distribution ? I remember saw that on one of your previous videos.

[@fjlamela]

The original file (mix) sound distorted and a too much bit crunchy. I as always say, if garbage sound in garbage sound out. Mastering cant' solve or improve a bad sound or/in a bad mix , ony can make up. This video show clearly this.

[@Reggi_Sample]

Thinking of Impact as a 4 band graphic EQ has revolutionised my usage of it. Makes so much sense. I also generally find stabiliser better when cutting. Great video

[@atmosphericdaft2152]

Thank you! this has helped me a lot!

[@DJStatusss]

Are the tracks set at -6db before you go into ozone and meter?

[@Emperorjones]

Maybe I'm missing something, it appears the Streaky Starter won't load in Ozone 11. Preset formats moved from .xml to .aupreset in the new version. And changing the handler doesn't do the trick.

[@santiagovanegas3812]

What does the "stereo independence" tool in the maximizer do? great video!

[@AntoniusKaeser]

Awesome. Thanks a lot.

[@lilzibmusic]

Can I upgrade the standard version of ozone 9 to ozone 10 advanced or do I need to buy advanced for more money?

[@geeman9999999]

Thanks Streaky- I've been following you and taking your courses for a few months - really fantastic. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge :)

[@djprominent]

Could just be me, when I downloaded the preset it shows up as an XML file.

[@philfyphil]

Can I just ask, why did you use a low shelf rather than a high pass with a tighter (24 db) slope?

[@TakeOneRecordsOfficial]

is the preset no longer available? thanks!

[@skrypture1162]

Streaky! We owe you big for your knowledge!!! And the willingness to share that knowledge, thank you brother

can we get in touch I was wondering something about your presets...

[@bayseeboynesmusic]

Hello sir, if I’m using a compressor in this chain should I put it before or after the imager ? Thanks in advance for your assistance 🙏🏿

[@mastiklickersmusic]

Hi man, nice tutorial! I have an issue with stabilizer: in an extended mix of melodic techno song I hear artifacts that ruin the initial kick in the song, despite I do automatic mastering setting by AI of Ozone. Second thing: is possible choose singles module on Ozone and use a AI automatic settings each module? Thank you advance!!

[@Elvergudo07]

Why do you prefer to use RMS for mastering rather than LUFS?

[@aeua800]

Finally!! A full length video again! Thanks matey 😎 - more of this please (even though iirc Shorts provide for ad revenue and algorithmic exposure on KZbin atm)

[@sotakunaii]

your preset is an xml file? How am I supposed to integrate that? Thanks a lot!

[@CRXYTV]

Great video 👌🏿 what do you think about the AI mastering feature?

[@610soundproductions]

people that hate on this dont understand the fact that ozone's A.I is only a tool and should be used as a reference and then make a few mods to where you need it fit always still trust your ear first if your room is treated as well as do all tests to check your mix... a.i is meant to help us not take over...

[@alainsellier7751]

Thank you for this tutorial on Ozone. I have the following question. Is it better to use Ozone on the finished mixed down master track like in your example or in the main bus when mixing your tracks? Thanks.

[@warpacademy]

Good walkthrough. Nice to see your process with the updated and new modules. Yeah, I initially it was crushing the low end with limiter distortion until you mentioned the track itself is quite smashed. Thanks for the vid.

[@nusphere]

I'm unable to find the preset?

[@CalFritz]

Thank You! Interested in your Teaching but i'm not even sure how to dl the preset for Windows. I can only copy the name??? Why so difficult for one small file? Sorry.

[@Streaky_com]

If you are having trouble email [e-mail] and we will help

[@coolmind2476]

Nice video and explanation. However I would not say that any type of mastering preset will get the song 80% mastered because every mix is different and might need different mastering approach if one wants to get the best possible result (which might not be the aim of many people).

[@CRXTIANMUSIC]

Can this application process be applied to House/Techno/Electronic/EDM music?

[@diysounds2532]

Amazing network of modules, especially liked the perceived width in the imager module.Great videos, keep it up !

[@lelcecc4793]

[@RolandaSupsene]

And what about the priset who has Windows?

[@kernjames]

Thanks Streaky. I was thinking of buying this mastering software, but I didn't realize how Nerdy it was to use. Your demonstration has given me second thoughts about purchasing it. As a singer-songwriter and a person on a limited budget, I am always looking for software that is affordable and easy to use. I am sure I could master this Mastering software, but I think I will look around more before deciding to purchase this software. There are a lot of these Mastering software programs out there. In the past I have used a combination of Protools plugins and then Audacity's free software to "master" my songs.

[@squattermelon.]

Actually Ozone is very intuitive and even features automated mastering features. It is a tad pricey, but otherwise Ozone is great in my experience

[@kernjames]

@@squattermelon. I installed the Trial version and yes, it was pretty easy to use. And it is intuitive. And like you said a bit expensive; $249 for the Standard version and 400 + dollars for the Advanced. I will start saving some money up.

Streaky bro, if u see this u have genuinely helped me so much with this video. My master kept coming out really nice on everything except earphones where the vocals were super loud and the bass was quiet. Just spent a while going thru this video and brooo u have sorted me out I was gunna give up and just send him the master that sounded quiet on earphones but this one’s perfect!!!

Can you please explain your thoughts on the true peak / not true peak -0.1 / -1db "discussion" ? I don't get the matter really different sources say different things.

[@Streaky_com]

It just sound bad on the transients on most tracks

[@danielfeatherstone674]

Stupid question. Which is better - to mix down a track and then import the audio file into a new session with Ozone on the master. Or just have Ozone on the master in the mix so you can live adjust the mix. The latter seems more flexible?

[@mitchmarsili]

Yes, if the CPU holds up

[@Streaky_com]

Export so your brain goes into mastering mode you can always go back and bounce another mix if you really need to…but try and be disciplined to finish the mix and move to the next step

[@danielfeatherstone674]

@@Streaky_com Makes sense. Cheers mate

[@beats9711]

once you put the limiter on it was apperent the airy and open boost

[@beats9711]

nice vid, thank you

[@mixeandoconcarls5445]

Is there any in depth video on true peaking?? I've always thought that the -1 dB "Rule" kinda kills my mix but I'm curious if I set the true peak to like -0.2 is it going to distort on streaming platforms or something??

[@MusokeMSK]

Just do it. It's fine. If professional mastering engineers have 0.1 as a ceiling WITHOUT truePeak limiting, you can have 0.2 as a ceiling and don't have to worry (especially if you decide to use truePeak limiting instead of conventional limiting)

[@precursor4263]

Would you say you're using this on most masters before going into other plugins / analog ?

[@jwalters8498]

Will the pre-set work on Ozone 10 standard? and also why do you record on a separate track?

Does it work for ozone v8 or 9

In Reaper, on a track and not the Master Bus, my bypass reduces the level of the processing chain to match the input. So, pressing that button makes it quieter. It does not match the input to the output but rather the other way around. This drives me nuts because it obviously makes it impossible to use any kind of meter when the gain is attenuated.

[@billpodolak7754]

You can go into the Ozone I/O settings (with the gear cog) and uncheck the modern gain match option. Then it'll match using the input gain instead

[@JoshSmith-xm4gz]

Widening the top end sounds a bit confusing to me. It's messing with the definition of the transients. I prefer to leave the top end untouched and natural Edit: I depends on the mix of course. If there are lots of drums and percs in the track then i don´t like to widen it.

[@xrabbz2010]

Agree, my perc clashes with the click of my kick too, do it in the mix, not the master

[@jamzdrumz141]

The Stereo width or Anti-phase processing is smearing the imaging of the sounds in the top end and mid-range, because the crossover frequency is too low. Sub content below 85 cycles and top end frequency content above 15kHz, doesn’t have any localisation cues in the 3-D sound field. They form a cloud above our head and below our feet from a psycho acoustic imaging standpoint. Adding stereo imaging processing above 15kHz, will add openness and width. However, adding anti-phase information to mid range and low mid frequency content, will smear the imaging of the instruments in the 3-D sound field. One of the biggest problems with mastering engineers, is a lot of them are not traditionally trained in mixing. Which is the foundation upon correct mastering processing… If you don’t understand mixing and placing instruments in the 3-D sound field, then you are pretty stuffed when understanding and solidifying the imaging of instruments in mastering.
