ozone test drive
these forums seem to be really the only ones that praise Ozone 4, whereas gearslutz, homerecording, etc... just say it's just a waste of time.
Any rate, giving my $.02, using the trial and experimenting on final mixes for a couple days, I think I'm glad I use Sonar, because it seems I really have all the tools already.
I actually did't find the parametric any better than Harbal, and the mastering reverb, exciter, loudness maximizer and widener, I don't think I'd ever use. Kinda in the BBE catagory, that sounds great the first day....next morning, even if subtle, you realize it isn't the direction you want to go in.
Admittedly, the first 20 minutes blew me away, and I was ready to pull the trigger, but thought I ought to be patient and let the 10 day demo play out.
AFTER careful volume matching, I think the Sonar tools are actually better.
It was a head scratcher if the MS processing was needed or not....
Why am I posting this>> ?? Because I felt people that think they need to buy BOTH Sonar and Ozone at the same time, might purchase Sonar first...then make a decision. Might save you 200 bananas.
