5/28/2023 0 Comments Ozone 5 plugin![]() ![]() ![]() I'm applying the iZotope Ozone 5 plugin to the master bus. However, all options on my computer including the actual master volume are at 100%. I'm using a Scarlet Solo interface, and I place it at half volume so I don't go deaf while mixing, plus I live in an apartment so getting monitors is not an option. My mix sounds great with studio monitor headphones, and sounds loud enough to my ears at half of the full audio interface volume. Then, later for Stage II mixing, I want to crank it to near 0 for the full volume so I can render 16 bit WAVs for a Bandcamp release. My goal with mixing this current album is to set the gain stage to be -6db for Stage I mixing to render alll tracks to 16 bit WAV at the same volume without distortion. I know the two processes are separate, but I just wanted to clarify that I'm really happy with the way it's mixed, and not the final volume. My mixes for my current album sound great, and the problem I have is not with the mix, but rather with the final perceived / actual volume in terms of mastering. So, I've been kind of reassessing how I've been mixing my own music, and picked up a few helpful guides on the internet through EQ cheatsheets that have been working just fine. ![]()
