![]() The price is higher, but then so is the quality and the user experience. No AI functionality, but more analogue-style action, and a cheaper price tag.īleeding-edge but highly, highly creative and professional mixing tools. ![]() ![]() This takes four new distortion types out of iZotope’s Trash 2 distortion plugin, giving you the option to blend between Clipper, Overdrive, Scream and Scratch types, representing a versatile selection of signal mashers.Ī suite of processors to load inside a virtual rack. The original X/Y pad, which blended between four distortion types, has been boosted with a second mode: Trash. In an impressive feat, multiple upgrades have been made to the Exciter module, all eminently useable. Not every time does it do a better job than a human with several plugins on-hand, but often it’s all you need for the solid separation of two parts. Unmask is a true candidate for replacing multiple tools in your current mixing workflow. Even kick and bass can be tidied up very effectively using the Unmask module, although the process takes a little longer in fine-tuning Attack and Release times. Vocals are, in particular, effectively brought out when sidechained into competing channels (send the vocal to the sidechain pre-reverb for better results). Not only can you simply and quickly officiate the competition between two sounds, you can set how strongly this is done (Sensitivity) and define the Attack and Release times of the effect. While Neutron was already equipped with a masking view as part of its EQs, the idea here is to load Unmask onto a sound (eg a piano) and sidechain in the sound (eg a vocal) that you want to make space for. Neutron’s newest module, Unmask, offers a quick and easy way to get a sound out of another’s way. (Image credit: iZotope) Unmasking made simple The Assistant View controls are all actually macros that command particular features of the modules added to the processing chain: Tone Match operates a Sculptor’s amount to make the track conform to an ‘ideal’ spectral response, Punch operates the controls on the new Punch compressor (more on that elsewhere), Distort commands the Exciter module behind the scenes, and Width controls the output Width control of the chain. The ‘old-school’ view of your loaded modules and their full parameter sets is still available, only now this is known as Detailed View. The whole window is well set up and easy to make sense of for broadstrokes changes or beginners. Activate it and you’ll be asked to start playback, after which Neutron will crunch the numbers and come up with a set of modules – and requisite settings – as a starting point for your mix.Īssistant View identifies the instrument you’re using and offers four key areas that, in theory, should play the most crucial part in shaping your sound: Tone Match, Punch, Distort and Width.
