SONY LICENSES IZOTOPE MASTERING TECHNOLOGY

The Mastering Effects Bundle powered by iZotope features high quality audio algorithms and includes the Mastering Reverb, Multiband Compressor, IRC Limiter Loudness Maximizer and Analog EQ Parametric Equalizer plug-ins.

The Mastering Reverb can add a consistent sense of depth and space to a mix. The Multiband Compressor provides up to four bands of limiting, compression and expansion with realtime visualization of the dynamics within each band.  The IRC Limiter Loudness Maximizer allows users to create an overall louder or fuller master by limiting the dynamic range and boosting the perceived overall level of the mix. And the Analog EQ Parametric Equalizer combines six bands of adjustable bell filters and low/high shelf filters with analog modeling.

Sound Forge 9, which includes the Mastering Effects Bundle powered by Izotope, is now available worldwide through software stores and online retailers for $399.95.
