IZOTOPE RELEASES OZONE MASTERING TOOL

Framingham, MA, October 17, 2001 - IZOTOPE, INC. has announced the release of Ozone, a 64-bit system of analog modeled effects in one DirectX plug-in.

Ozone provides the following effects modules, meters, and functionality:

• Four bands of multiband dynamics that carefully emulate the response of analog circuitry, providing compression, expansion, limiting and gating.
  
• Real-time visualization of the dynamics within each band.
  
• Harmonic excitation based on analog tube saturation models. Multiband excitation with adjustable crossovers to add extended bass, sizzling highs, or anything in between.
  
• Multiband parametric EQ with "soft saturation" modeling overlaid on a spectrum display.
  
• Reverb with control over room size, frequency cutoff, damping, and more.
  
• Phase meter and vectorscope displays that highlight imaging, phase and potential canceling problems.
  
• Stereo imaging controls including multiband widening and multiband delays.
  
• A loudness maximizer with soft and brickwall limiting modes.
  
• A unique signal flow interface that allows you to customize the order of the modules while still providing 64-bit processing through the entire mastering chain.
  
• An Undo/History list that lets you track your tweaks and go back to previous settings with the click of a mouse.
  
• A spectrum analyzer that offers real time and average modes, snapshots, and more.
