Anyone know if Dynamic EQ is in basic as well as advanced? Indeed, what are the differences between the two now?
Noone can say for sure whether the dynamic eq is just for Advanced or for both versions, but I'm fairly certain it's for both cause it's stated as a new addition to Ozone and no exclusivity was stated. If it where for Advanced only im sure Izotope would've stated it. Again, I don't think anyone can say with certainty if it's offered in both versions of Ozone or not but the fact that Izotope stated Ozone and not a specific version leads me to believe the dynamic eq module is in both versions.

As for what are the separating differences now between Ozone's Advanced version and Standard; well the video mentions a lot more improvements then just the 'dynamic eq and gui that both may share'. It just states a lot with very few words. In the beginning of the video it's said "a lot of work went into both how Ozone 'sounds', look, and the addition of the new dynamic eq". The key word is 'sounds', for a lot of work went into this as well. Later in the video it states plain and simple that extra dsp went into some of the older already existing modules. Basicly new algorithms are in some of the older modules. So there can still be a world of difference between the two versions of Ozone depending on what all was done updating the older already existing modules of both. The only module improvement mentioned is the eq and its new curves and baxandal shelving filters, but 'modules' is plural so I expect more.
T2 Icarus is a must. SonicCore SCOPE is the most. As heart of studio it has my vote, cause XITE-1 is all she wrote.

How useful is Advanced for general music use? (not specializing in mastering, broadcast etc)
Never thought Id consider it because of the price but its effectively only $240, considering if I didnt get it Id pay $100 for the std upgrade anyway.
The big problem is that all future upgrades will then become $300, ouch..

Dynamic EQ and level adjustment seem like what's been missing. Also the new GUI is great, modern and clear.

I learned a lot from playing around Ozone 5, but eventually for daily production I do all dynamics, saturation, reverb and EQ somewhere in actual tracks. Now only use multiband mid-side compressor and vectorscope from Ozone, the first of which can be easily emulated by any compressor out there, especially with Ableton racks.

The main advantage of Ozone is that it comes with all the stuff you'd ever need in one package and has great manual which really explains things. To su things up, Ozone may not solve all your problems (what you could expect from 999$ plugin), but will teach you how to.

The new GUI looks better and better understandable. Hopefully the upgrade price is reasonable for Ozone5 owners

Not sure there is enough new there to tempt me. I already have Pro-MB which is a more advanced Dynamic EQ than shown. I suppose it will depend on how much they have improved the sound of the existing modules

Feel the same way. Hopefully there are some new features or better DSP in areas.

Looks like the reverb is gone. The upgrade price is $99.

99 is quite gooooood. Unlike the 300 I paid for the RX upgrade ;)

Lame, I actually use it quite often for those zoom recordings I worked on. Loved it in small dose. :scared:

Indeed. It was great for a little mix glue on the pre-master fader. It was very vanilla, but that's what you need in that instance, and very little of it did a nice thing. Strange to see an upgraded product nuke a feature.

The UI looks fantastic, however CPU use is way up from v5. I'm seeing 2% for v5 on the Mac in Ableton Live 9 and around 17% for v6. Anyone else see numbers like this for Ozone 6? I'm on Yosemite 10.10, 512 sample buffer at 88.2 kHz.

So dynamic Eq is for advanced only? No reverb?...it is pretty, but WTH?

Also the Imager has been dumbed down. I can nowhere find controls for phase, channel polarity and delay offset???
