I like automating the Limiters Threshold for sections to help with the drops, builds & intros/outros. Always great learning from Jonathan, thank you. =)
I use most of my automation if not all in the mixing stage either by leveling off certain parts that seem a little too loud in parts depending on the instrument being used and such. I use a lot of automation on my VSTis because of the genre I work with which is mostly ambient deep drone synth sounds and the use of 1 or 2 arpeggiators that give it some movement throughout the track but it takes a lot of work that is for sure. Love these little tutorials they really help out a lot thank you for sharing your years of mastering experiences with us Jonathan Cheers mate.
Appreciate the insight Jon. My only question is regarding automation. To clarify things and make sure im understanding correctly. I can switch presets in a plugin/vst using automation within my daw without creating any type of drops/artifacts ?Also that would depend on whether im going to enable/disable any devices . Which I would not disable any.
Would you be able to discuss in the future mastering entire albums/EPs/projects and managing transitions and the creative decisions that go into working from song to song? I've always been fascinated behind the workflow of all of that. The learning has been great from this series, thanks a lot!
Automating the Lookahead parameter in a limiter (longer lookahead time) may be very effective in preventing it from distorting on sustained low end energy.
Is there a way to automate in Ozone 9? And if no, it’d be super helpful to add that feature. My use case example: wildly different sections in a song where you need to eq an element that only appears in a specific section of the song (automate the eq band on/off).
@@iZotopeOfficial I know that, but I also like using Ozone in it's stand alone format. That's my favorite user experience with Ozone, instead of using it as a plugin in another DAW. 2 super useful features I'd love to see in the stand alone version: (1) automation (2) metadata editing again, workflow wise, I love using Ozone as a standalone mastering daw - I think it handles processing and cpu really well and the results sound great - not always the case (processing wise) when it's loaded up as a bunch of individual mothership plugins on each individual track in another DAW's session...
Printing a song with different presets and then editing all afterwards I am familiar with...but how do one make an automation inside the DAW or with 0Z9 in standalone when wanting to totally switch presets like you do manually in this tutorial..if possible at all?
Booth. If the customer wants for example „more impact“ in the chorus, Automation is a really good way to do this. And if the engineer feels like it he should do it. If I master for my artists automation is such a powerful way to enhance emotion and power.
@@ManchesterMusic Ozone 9 does not have automation when running as a mastering suite. You only get it when you use another application to host the plugins available outside of Ozone 9. I appreciate the available plugins but think a suite should be a capable host for the process.
Love the details Jonathan is going in. So caring, so subtle, but these are the things that matter.

I love to listen to Jonathan's wise and experienced lessons. It brings me forward.
Thanks iZotope. Mr Wyner is a genius and I like your plugs! ❤
Jonathan is such a good teacher/instructor! thanx iZotope folks!
Mr Johnathan you are a marvelous professor. Bless
@Jonathan Wyner I could listen to you all day, Jonathan. Your teaching style fits my learning style. Thank you.
WOW the production on this is impeccable. Takes great teaching, and combines with useful animations, great job team!!!

Gratitude 🤝🏾...
Really useful tips, thanks for doing these!
Forever grateful for your content, thank you again so much for sharing the love and expertise of music with us
Brilliant videos. Keep up the great work.
Very useful info, thank you!! BTW, how many cool cat photo T-shirts do you have? Another good one here.
I had no idea that I could automate period. I just had some masters I could have applied that to. Wow
Intro track is 🔥🔥
About to say that
Really authentic
:) is there audio knowledge fluid in your iZotope bottle at 2:49 ;) thanx for sharing your knowledge! :)
automation depends on the [production of the Mix and where it might lend itself to put that creative part or fixing them etc

Ditto on this, every time I’ve tried to do it I’ve always felt like it’s a struggle so I would love some tips!

Are the level changes before the final limiter? Or are you boosting something in the limiter like threshold?
Wish they would make a step by step mixing list pdf for using visual mixer neutron and ozone9 so I could print it out and put it on my wall
What about pan automation? How would that work in general within a mixing scenario even?
Instead of automating changes on one track, why not separate the audio onto different tracks with different settings? Is there a difference?

You can automate just about any parameter in Ozone from your DAW.

Do the engineers do automation when they feel like they need/want to, or do we request the engineers to spice it up for us?

@@gregrelmueab2142 Thank you, sir.
We are just here for the Mastering Water. Hopefully on the season finale 🙏
Is there away to take the muddiness out of older music tracks?
👍🏾🔥👍🏾
Is he in Logic? Or is that something else?
Yes... in this video, that is Logic.
Sadly, your mastering product does not provide automation... yet
Huh?

This is all great but Jonathan is bit of a wyner.
