Note: This is an update from any previous version of Ozone Standard

Ozone 12 Standard takes iZotope's industry-leading mastering suite to the next level, giving you a full set of professional-grade modules to shape, polish, and finalize your music. Featuring intelligent AI tools like the Custom Master Assistant flow and Assistive Vocal Balance alongside creative processors such as Bass Control, Dynamic EQ, and the IRC 5 Maximizer, this edition balances power and accessibility. Whether you're working on streaming-ready singles, radio mixes, or album masters, Ozone 12 Standard provides the proven sound quality trusted by engineers worldwide.

Bass Control for Low-End Clarity

Managing bass can make or break a master. With Ozone 12 Standard's Bass Control, you can easily lock in the perfect balance of punch and clarity across playback environments. From tight kicks to deep subs, Bass Control ensures your low end translates everywhere—from car stereos to club sound systems.

Advanced Processing with EQ and Dynamics

Standard includes a suite of professional modules for detailed tonal and dynamic shaping. Use Dynamic EQ for frequency-specific compression, sculpt transients with the multi-band Dynamics module, or add warmth with the Exciter and Vintage Tape. Stabilizer and Match EQ help you refine tonal balance intelligently, while the Imager adjusts stereo width for spatial impact. Together, these tools give you precision control over every element of your master.

Maximizer with IRC 5 Technology

The Maximizer has long been a favorite for achieving loudness without compromise. Now updated with IRC 5, Ozone 12 Standard's limiter lets you push tracks harder than ever while retaining openness and clarity. Avoid distortion and pumping while delivering competitive loudness that holds up across all platforms.

Streamlined Workflow with AI Guidance

Ozone 12 Standard integrates AI where it matters most. Master Assistant customizes chains for your style, Track Referencing lets you compare to commercial mixes, and Delta buttons help you hear exactly what's being changed. These intelligent tools save time while preserving your creative control.

Ozone 12 Standard is the perfect choice for artists and producers ready to take mastering seriously without the full complexity of Advanced. With a balance of intelligent guidance and hands-on control, it's ideal for home studios, content creators, and mix engineers who want to deliver professional masters every time.
