Spectron - Reviews - Music Tech Magazine

With iZotope’s plug-ins finally released for Mac OSX, a timely re-evaluation is in order. Mark Cousins looks at the company’s latest offering – Spectron.

Price: £130.00
Manufacturer: iZotope
Website: http://www.izotope.com

Since the release of its Ozone mastering software, iZotope has been hard at work developing a range of innovative, high-quality products. A feature of all of the company’s plug-ins is the impressive attention to detail and their exemplary audio quality – plug-ins such as Trash have several pages of editable parameters, alongside a detailed spectral overview of the processing taking place. Having gained a strong foothold in the PC market, many Mac musicians have looked upon iZotope’s work with a fair amount of jealousy, hoping that versions would eventually be released for Mac OSX. Thankfully, the wait is at last over!
