Note: This is an upgrade from Ozone Elements or Elements Suite

Ozone 12 Advanced is the flagship edition of iZotope's mastering ecosystem, delivering every module, every innovation, and every advantage for audio professionals. With 20+ modules including Bass Control, Stem EQ, Unlimiter, Impact, Clarity, and the IRC 5 Maximizer, Advanced represents the pinnacle of mastering technology. Add in AI-powered features like the Custom Master Assistant flow, Stem Focus, Tonal Balance Control 2, and Audiolens, and you have a suite designed for absolute precision, creative flexibility, and industry-defining sound quality.

Stem EQ and Unlimiter for Impossible Fixes

Ozone 12 Advanced introduces two groundbreaking modules that redefine what's possible in mastering. Stem EQ allows you to separately adjust vocals, drums, bass, and instruments from a stereo file—no stems required. Unlimiter acts as an "undo" button for over-compressed audio, restoring lost dynamics and breathing life back into your mixes. These tools turn previously unfixable masters into professional, polished tracks.

Impact and Clarity Modules

The new Impact module gives you control over microdynamics, enhancing groove and rhythmic feel. The Clarity module uses psychoacoustic processing to lift the veil off dull mixes, brightening your sound without harshness. Together, they ensure your masters feel alive, energetic, and ready for release.

Low-End and High-End Control

Between Bass Control, Low End Focus, and Spectral Shaper, Ozone 12 Advanced provides unmatched authority over tonal balance. You can lock in powerful, punchy lows, tighten muddy mixes, or smooth harshness in vocals, guitars, and cymbals with precision. These modules let you sculpt the frequency spectrum with surgical control.

Maximizer with IRC 5 Limiting

The Maximizer in Ozone 12 Advanced pushes your masters harder than ever thanks to the new IRC 5 limiting mode. Achieve competitive loudness with stunning clarity and no unwanted pumping or distortion. It's the cleanest, most transparent maximizer iZotope has ever developed.

Workflow Power and Integration

Ozone 12 Advanced enhances your workflow with features designed for professionals. Use modules as separate plugins in your DAW, preview lossy formats with Codec Preview, and harness improved Stem Focus separation for targeted processing. Tonal Balance Control 2 and Audiolens expand referencing, letting you capture tonal fingerprints from any source and compare your masters against professional benchmarks.

Ozone 12 Advanced is built for mastering engineers, producers, and creators who demand the very best. With unmatched tools, intelligent processing, and deep integration, it gives you the power to solve the impossible, polish tracks to perfection, and deliver releases that compete on any platform. iZotope Ozone 12 Advanced is the industry-standard mastering suite—complete, uncompromising, and ready for any project.
