Shame on me, I should've caught that. Looks like I've got one appointment to postpone!

They've abused the word "analog" from the beginning, and even though iZotope is one of the few companies you can consistently trust to get it right, the analog talk is still mostly marketing hype. 
 
I've been an Ozone user since version 2, but stopped upgrading after O4. O5's new intelligent release mode didn't do anything for me except gobble CPU cycles for breakfast. The prettier UI wasn't enough to justify an upgrade, as I'd become quite comfortable with the old one. Promises of more transparent aggressive limiting is a feature I rarely need, and when I do Pro-L fills that role nicely.
 
But I'm definitely going to demo O6 and just might spring for it. I've been tossing coins into a vase since last December and probably have a hundred bucks in there by now.

I didn't think "Intelligent II" was any improvement over the first one, but "III" was a 150% improvement to me. I had gotten used to the "Ozone crunch" on mixes, but with "Intelligent III" it suddenly wasn't there anymore! It is crazy CPU hungry though...

That's what I'm afraid of on my limited PC, I have 4 & 5, but I often hit the wall on a lot of productions so I am going to wait and hopefully hear more about this...

This is the main reason I always bounce my mixes to a stereo wave file first - a Q9300 only has so much to offer up in the Ozone.        But it's still one of my favorite plugins and has been since version 1 (only skipped 4).

I'm wondering if the 399.00 upgrade from a standard to an advanced version will stay when 6 is launched and 5 is a thing of the past. It was over 5 bills to upgrade before I think...if so there's no rush to decide...if not then maybe it's a good time for 5 users to look at upgrading to advanced if they want that functionality. If it goes back to 500.00 some of the interest goes away. Know what I mean?

$399 for Ozone to Ozone Advanced is a sale promotional price.
 
Izotope regularly has sales.  AudioDeluxe and Plugindiscounts.com can do upgrade pricing - not generally on their website ya have to email them for a quote.  but you can get deals that way.
 
Ozone 6 is supposedly going to be released after this Ozone 5 sale has ended.  Ozone 6 will be released after November 1 is what 1 of the many emails I got said.
