Note: The scales for the EQ and spectrum are dierent, by design. If they were made to match, you
wouldn’t see enough of the spectrum for it to be useful. The frequency scale in grey applies to both
the EQ and the spectrum.
The spectrum provides a real-time display of the frequencies of the mix. This display helps with EQ’ing
and adjusting the band cutos for multiband dynamics.
Spectrum Analyzer Options
You can set options for the spectrum by accessing the Spectrum Options tab or right-clicking the
spectrum and selecting “Spectrum Options” from the context menu.
Post Equalizer
Ozone includes a second Equalizer, available for placement anywhere in your signal chain.
You can use this post Equalizer to balance
frequencies after multiband processing, or
perform Stereo and Mid/Side or Left/Right
EQ processing simultaneously all from within
Ozone.
The Alt-Solo Feature
If you hold down the Alt key and click on the
spectrum, you have an “audio magnifying
glass” that lets you hear only the frequencies
that are under the mouse cursor, without
aecting your actual EQ settings.
This is useful for pinpointing the location of a
frequency in the mix without changing your
actual EQ bands. Releasing the mouse button returns the sound to the actual EQ. You can set the
default bandwidth of this filter in the EQ Options screen under “Alt-Solo Filter Q.”
Once you’ve pinpointed a particular frequency using the Alt-Solo feature, you can double-click that
area to activate a new node in that exact location.
Component Equalizer Plug-In
If you are using Ozone 7 Advanced you will also have the ability to instantiate Ozone 7’s Equalizer
module as an individual component plug-in.
Ozone 7 Advanced includes component plug-ins for all six of Ozone’s modules complete with all the
same features as the module within Ozone.
