Ozone includes a high quality hybrid reverb module that can add a consistent sense of depth and space to a mix. Utilizing both convolution and algorithmic technologies, the improved reverb module features the warm early reflections of a real acoustic space as well as dense and flexible reverb tails. It is designed to put a final gloss or sheen on the entire mix while still preserving the sense of space that may have been created by using reverbs on individual tracks.
Key Features
ADV iZotope Insight® - Visualize your mix and comply with loudness standards. The Insight real-time plug-in (a $499 value) is bundled with RX 5 Advanced Audio Editor. De-noise - Reduce unwanted background noise quickly and easily. De-noise provides natural. Nov 12, 2018 Dialogue De-reverb gives a better solution to the all-purpose de-reverb module; it improves on its predecessor in ease of use and quality, but more in ‘De-rooming’ than ‘De-reverbing’. All in all, RX 7 is an impressive update, essential for newcomers who need clean-up software, and a no-brainer upgrade for those with much older versions.
Hybrid reverb processing utilizing both convolution and algorithmic technology
Choose between various room modes
Plate mode derived from the classic EMT 140
Mid/side controls allow you to apply ambience to different parts of the soundstage
Ozone Advanced Exclusives:
Crossmix control allows you to adjust the amount of stereo spread between the left and right channel’s reverb signals
Early reflection control to better fine tune reverb
Note: When using the Reverb module, Ozone will consume a significantly higher amount of CPU, especially during parameter changes. To help make Ozone more usable in real time, you can offload some of these changes to prevent the audio from dropping out. See theReverb Options Tabfor more info.
Early Reflections
Ozone 5 features a number of room modes that control the reverb’s early reflections. Convolution technology is used to reproduce the acoustics of real spaces.
Early Reflection Modes:
Room –smaller acoustic space with strong and distinct early reflections
Plate –classic reverb effect which captures the vibration of a sheet metal plate when audio is played onto it creating a clean distinctive reverb tone. Ozone 5’s plate reverb mode was derived from the characteristics of the definitive plate reverb unit, the EMT 140.
Hall –large acoustic space with darker warm reflections
Theater –medium sized acoustic space with dampened early reflections (Ozone 5 Advanced)
Cathedral –larger acoustic space with pronounced bright reflections(Ozone 5 Advanced)
Arena –massive deep acoustic space with expansive density (Ozone 5 Advanced)
Early Reflection Options:
Once an early reflection mode is selected you may adjust the following options that affect it:
Pre-delay:Sets the 'pre-delay time', or the amount of delay in milliseconds between the original signal and the beginning of the reverb in order to simulate depth.
Early Reflection Control:Lowers the level of early reflections in the reverb signal and can be used with pre-delay to create the perception of depth. (Ozone 5 Advanced)
Late Tails
After the initial early reflection, Ozone 5 uses algorithmic technology to simulate late reverb tails. This allows you to couple the early reflections of one type of space with late reflections associated with another to create unique but realistic sounding reverb. Once you have chosen an appropriate early reflection, you may adjust the following characteristics of the late tails:
Decay Time:sets the amount of time it takes for the reverb to fully decay
Low Decay:adjusts how quickly the low frequencies decay
High Decay: adjusts how quickly the high frequencies decay
Global Reverb Settings
After the early and late reflections have been defined, the following settings affect the entire reverb signal:
Wet and Dry:These control the mix between the processed reverb signal (Wet) and original unprocessed signal (Dry).
Width:Controls the stereo spread of the reverb signal.
Solo Reverb Signal:This check box lets you solo just the reverb signal.
Low and High Frequency Cutoff filters
You can control the bandwidth of the reverberated signal using the low and high frequency cutoffs. On the spectrum at the top of the module there are two nodes that create a curve that corresponds to these cutoffs. You can drag the nodes to the left or right to control the bandwidth of the reverb.
Mini-Spectrum Window
The window at the top of the module defaults to a display of the signal spectrum which also features the Low and High frequency Cutoff filters. However, with a selection on the left it may also display the Reverb Character view.
Reverb Character view displays a graph that illustrates the character of the reverb signal over time given the settings you have selected. This display can help you visualize how different settings affect the overall character of the reverb signal.
Crossmix: Adjusts the amount of stereo spread between the left and right channels’ reverb signals.
Mid-Side Support
Stereo/Mid-side:This button allows you to switch between 'stereo' processing or 'mid-side' processing. When 'stereo' is selected, the Ozone module will perform basic stereo signal processing. When 'mid-side' is selected, all mid-side features become available.
Colors
To make it easier to distinguish between Mid and Side modes, the interface highlights and Reverb Character view have designated colors. Mid mode is presented as orange, and Side mode is presented as light blue.
Example using Mid-Side Processing with Mastering Reverb
Mid-Side processing allows you to separate a specific frequency range into its Mid and Side components and apply processing separately to the Mid (center) channel, or the Sides of your mix. When using the Mastering Reverb this allows you to tailor the reverb to more accurately depict your desired soundstage. For example, you can add both space and ambience to your mix by applying the reverb only to the sides of your soundstage.
To do this, begin by enabling the Side channel (light blue). Select the frequency bands for the instrument(s) that you want to apply the reverb to. Finally adjust your wet/dry mix to taste. Using Bypass in the Reverb module, try switching back and forth to hear the difference in your mix.

In other cases, you may actually use this feature to reduce the amount of reverb in the Mid channel to make the lead components sound more clear.

Component Reverb Plug-in
If you are using Ozone 5 Advanced you will also have the ability to instantiate Ozone 5's Reverb module as an individual component plug-in. Ozone 5 Advanced includes component plug-ins for all six of Ozone's modules complete with all the same features as the module within Ozone. Any module presets saved within Ozone will open within the component plug-ins' module preset system.
iZotope’s award-winning RX 6 Audio Editor is the industry standard for audio repair, restoration, and enhancement. It offers a comprehensive suite of tools focused on alleviating common to complex audio issues. Post production professionals, audio engineers, and video editors alike use RX to transform problematic recordings into production-ready audio.
Design Philosophy
The RX 6 Audio Editor is a visual, selection-based editing environment. Most of its user interface is devoted to the Spectrogram/Waveform display, an integral part of the RX editing workflow. The display enables you to refine and visualize your audio, allowing for better recognition and selection of problem areas.
