  •  Pƙed rokem +5

    Ozone mastering plugin is really top-notch piece of software, I've been using it previously, but eventually went for Waves's Abbey Road TG Master Chain, which I think gives more solid results. Yeah, it uses relatively old piece of hardware emulation to do mastering, but since I am orientated to producing acoustic, rock music, I find it gives more saturated, warm, punchy mixes, like those in 70's, which I really like.

  • @DJMAJAN
    @DJMAJAN Pƙed rokem +4

    Many thanks for this comparison. It would be great to compare all of them with a matching gain or the same lufs. Ozone is much louder than the other ones. But however, the 100 $ Master is sounding much cleaner in my ears.

    • @matnetik
      @matnetik  Pƙed rokem +2

      Oh that's a GREAT idea! The $100 master was indeed great! If you stuck around till the VERY end after the black, I tone matched the $100 master in Ozone and the results are...well...INSANE

  • @jorykevinberger7047
    @jorykevinberger7047 Pƙed rokem +6

    The tone match of the $100 was cool but it cost $100 to get that, plus the cost of Ozone. And when level matched it was suddenly very clear that for whatever reason the tone matched version took out all of the sweet top end that I didn’t even realize was so well executed in the $100 master.
    For me the true test of a good master is if the loudest one that seems to sound the best, when level matched back down to mix level, is actually the best. Then compare them all at the same lufs at the chorus. That’s when I can really discern the differences in tone.

    • @matnetik
      @matnetik  Pƙed rokem +1

  • @JeffStrickland
    @JeffStrickland Pƙed rokem

    Haha! Yeah, the tone-matched version at the end is killer! The initial Ozone master-in-progress sounds a lot louder, but (for me) at the expense of increased ear-fatigue from the boost in upper mids. It sounds fantastic for a few seconds, but quickly wears me out. BUT--that's just your quick, one-off take on it. Like you experienced, it's all definitely there! Just needs fine tuned a bit. Super helpful video and really well done, thanks much for this! I just upgraded from v9 to v10, and despite having had Ozone for years (since v6 I think..), I've been having fun re-discovering how great the individual modules are--amazing stuff. Damn, that vintage compressor is crazy good. I coulda stopped buying compressors years ago!😭lol

That surprise ending when you Mastered that other version was really cool. Too bad Ozone 10 Advanced, costs over 400 dollars. That is more than I can afford for now.

    I'm going to rank them: $100, $50, Ozone, $15.
    If you tamed the highs on Ozone, I would then re-rank them, $100, Ozone, $50, $15.
    I think the 100 dollar master has dynamics, it has the right amount of bass, clarity in the top end, but not too bright like the ozone. Overall I think its the most balanced and you could listen to it for the longest period, without ear fatigue.

      Well observed. I don't think AI will ever replace human ears and it's capability to adapt. Even if Ozone created such a perfect mastering, it won't ever make separate mid/side manual adjustments or automations. Mastering is so much more that just EQ or compressions. Also, ozone is a good choice for plugin matter, but no plugins in the world can be better than a full analog Mastering, which is the most common in hight tier music industry

    Hello, a point about comparison methodology; humans are biased, one of our bias is the loudness bias. That mean louder always seems to sound better. Take 2 identical track. Low a track by 1dB; when compared the louder will sound better every time. So, to compare sounds, they have to be level match. Without matching comparaison is biased., it’s the principle of the loudness war. Loudness is mesures with Lufs. To be objective the levels in lufs should have been match at0;1dB. Then comparution would have make sense.

    • @matnetik
      @matnetik  Pƙed rokem +2

      I agree with this 100%, and while it’s not a true loudness comparison, overall Ozone is louder given that all the tracks are reading 0db on the master channel. Next time I compare I’ll DEFINITELY toss up a luf meter just to show, great idea!

  • @amusik7
    @amusik7 Pƙed rokem +6

    Yeah it's interesting. I think for my ears, purely sonically, the 100 dollar and 50 dollar version sounded the most pleasing and they didn't change the sound of your mix, but knowing that most people will listen to the song with phone speakers, small bluetooth speakers and earbuds, the Ozone version with a more pronounced upper mid-range and hyped spatial width will probably pop out more and definitely is not worse. Although I did find the Ozone version somewhat more irritating sounding. Interestingly, Ozone was the only out of this bunch that increased the width and spatial feel of the mix substancially - so that was definitely a plus for Ozone. With Ozone the risk with version 9 - perhaps less with 10 - is that the auto mastering used to always apply very bright EQ curves that are fatiguing. I think with the new version it seems to have gotten a bit less crazy about adding excessive top end and focuses more on pushing mid-range, and the new stabilizer module really balances the sound well. So I think Ozone 10 is a great tool for anyone, but a real engineer has the upper hand. Interesting - the gap is getting smaller and smaller though.

    Its crazy how the Ozone plugin isn't as compressed and lacks the width in the waveform, yet sounds just as punchy and dynamic (if not more dynamic at times) then the other 3 mixes.
    #2 gives # 3 a strong run for its money in my opinion.
    In the end though I'd have to go with Ozone over all.

Yes, if you just make it louder, you kill the nice Basketball Transient From the kick. So you have to make it louder like a PRO or just leave the raw mix.

    I now think as i thought in the past about ozone 8 that eq matching and other AI processes made with ozone sound like a little bit unnatural, like in this track for example the $50 and $100 guys made the song sound natural with not too accentuated mids or highs, unlike ozone that sound like it's doing a +4db bell from 3khz to 8khz range, like you've said, its a little too bright. I don't know why but ozone's assistant likes a bright sound overall.

    Ozone has weirdly pushed mids compared to the 100$ master. Comparing the qualities of these masters should include a comparison with compensated levels between them too.

    Ozone master, to me, takes the 3rd place.
    It got really mid range focused, lost a lot of transient and impact, squished everything where the low end lost all the punch.
    100 and 50 bucks are dynamic, with a pleasant curve for the ears even at loud level.
    I'm listening to it on NS-10s.

    100USD one sounds wider. Maybe cause its (too?) loud...the ozone makes feel like your ears would get much faster tired. of course best would be to level match and listen but i prefer the 100USD one. Though it is incredible to get a that good result that fast with Ozone...for sync licensing, which i do also....a great way, still i will stick with wavelab 11 and my plugins. You get to know your tracks also much better when you manually master.

      I think that's a solid place for it, since it's doing micro dynamic changes, it should definitely be post compressor, eq and anything that's make big changes! You should always try using the master assist on a track and see where it places it!

    I think the Ozone sounded better after the tone adjustment, but the initial master sounded very... artificial (sorry if that's too on the nose). The 100$ master sounded organic, like it was done with care and understanding. Ozone is definitely super cool, and it obviously gives you the tools to sculpt the mastering after it does its automatic thing, but I don't think there's a substitute (for now) for the human touch.

    Ozone 10 sounds the most mid / upper mid heavy. Almost fatiguing its so in your face. The $100 master sounds the most balanced both for frequency and imaging. Each element has more space with it. Its the clear winner for me.
    With that said i do really like Ozone 10, especially the new stabilizer module. And the Exciter has always been a great plugin. But the AI section the few times i have tried it is always too far off.
    I do agree the $15 version is too low end heavy and the mids sound scooped.

    In the end its taste and musicality that counts. And thats very individually.
    It depends on your soundsystem too.
    One master might have strenghts on a 20 bucks bluetooth, another on your high class 2000 bucks stereo, onother on the headphones, in-ear, 5.1 with dub, without sub....
    With mastering you can get lost in the details.
    Very lost...
    So letting others get mad on the mix can be worth money.

    Ozone 10 in verse 2 was a mess for me... The guy that mastered for $100 seems to know very well how to do the job, it seems that he used multiband processing (everything seems to be in its place) and the good use of compressors also because when it comes soft or hard transients in the track, the song doesn't get ruined. Mastering is about listening to the song and analize it so you can think what you can add to it (or clean) to make it sound better (and remember that one reference track is important). Mastering is not simply make it sound louder.
