Was looking at Izotope music production bundle? Would you recommend their stuff or this bundle? It's on sale for $500. Worth it? Thanks.

Give me an M
Can’t recall the rest...

Like MM said. Demo it yourself. Nobody here can tell you what something is worth to you. I have Neutron 2 and use it all the time. I love it. You may think it's crap.

Demo. That's the only way you're going to know.

Precisely. I can't believe anybody would even consider laying down $500 without demoing first.

And yet .. demoing won’t give you the wisdom of someone who has used it for many months or has a different skill level. Need reviews/feedback and a demo.

I have ozone and neutron advanced and I use them both .. although I use ozone a lot more, especially the analytical functionality.

Ok valid point. Given it has already been out for “many months” there should already be ample reviews and YouTube videos already.

Omnisphere.

Omnisphere doesn't leave you any choice. You want it, you buy it unless you can find a dealer nearby that has it. And even then, there is no guarantee it will work on your system. Trust me, I had my heart in my throat when I bought it. I'm just grateful it worked.

For me a clear YES. It has released me from this (for me) boring technical stuff that comes with mixing, balancing, leveling, measuring and so on and has given me far more time to be creative in producing strange sounds, tracks and albums...

I‘m used to receiving sarcastic arrogant answers which neither offer additional facts nor state clearly itself as just an opinion. Who cares?

There's not much to review, Ozone has been on a market for years - and people use it. Not much has changed since previous versions.

There were some show-and-tell videos for new features, mostly Tonal Balance Control and automatic master + reference tracks.

In short - Ozone bundle has everything you need for successful master and also doesn't have anything you don't need to bother with. Just get it and learn how to use it.

Disagree mate, there are loads of reviews/tuts out there on YouTube.

I do however agree it’s superb and well worth it.

Sorry for having an opinion, so I didn't offer a valid response, or did I?
The majority of music I have heard, mastered!? with ozone has appeared pretty much slammed, because peeps are only interested in an immediate solution, rather than one that is developed over time. Must have it, cos I will be churning out me tunes like a battery farmer!!
So

all you like, as I said, different strokes and that

That wisdom may well be the opinion of a 15 year who downloaded the crack, hasn't used anything else and endorses it because his latest infatuation endorses it too.

Demo it yourself.

Izotope stuff any good?
