What’s New in iZotope’s Neutron 3?



Neutron 3 was recently launched by iZotope. It has some new things in it that can speed up your workflow and transform the way you mix. You can demo the new features in Neutron 3 for free for 10 days.

Neutron 3 brings your mix workflow into the 21st century, allowing you to use its 8 module plug-ins across your session, independent of the mothership. Easily build your own signal chain alongside your favorite audio plug-ins for the ultimate mixing experience – faster, even better sounding plug-ins in whatever configuration you like.

Here is some of what’s new in Neutron 3:

Mix Assistant is available in Neutron 4 Advanced. It gives you a solid starting point for your mix, so you don’t get lost tweaking levels. It listens to your track and provides suggested gain levels for all tracks in your session, automatically grouping tracks by instrument and a focus element of your choice. From there, you can adjust each group to get a roughly balanced mix, whether your working with 100 tracks or 10.

Sculptor is like having a per-band army of compressors and EQs working tirelessly to shape your track. It even talks to Track Enhance with Mix Assistant, (iZotope’s AI-powered mixing processor that helps pick a custom starting point for a track, or an initial level mix) to identify the instrument you’re working with and give real time feedback to shape the sound of your track.

Masking Meter is all grown up. With a convenient one-window display and smoother metering – which allows you to simultaneously boost and cut to carve space across two competing tracks – Masking Meter is now even better at helping you find and fix elements of your mix.
