Word, I guess I should attach a disclaimer :p
I mean to apply it to tracks that I've got hot off the production line and am just hurting to play out nao.

yeah, if you know what you re doing its all good though, its just a tool (not the best out there but it can handle the job).
i just dont want that people get the impression ozone is some wunderbeast,
then get ozone (or similar), slap some presets like "CD MASTER" or "CLUB MASTER" and kaboom.
sounds loud and crisp. BUT as you re propably not comparing at the same levels, this logic is flawed.
cause louder is always better.
MONITOR ON THE SAME PERCEIVED LEVEL, and you ll see that you just added more distortion,...etc...
ozone is mainly a multiband tool and if you would follow th advice of macc and bob katz and etc...
multiband is potentially bad. it is good for some jobs.

multibands are handy for rounding off tops not to squash entire sections of a mix
if you need a multiband to fix the sound of your overall mix you should prolly go back to the individual elements

no no.. i just ment for odd samples etc..... not too put on my master. like a bit of dub delay on a sample just makes the sample sound extra nice.. and a bit of dimension expander on a bass makes it sound extra nice.. like its been made by a top notch mastering person. i wanted too find other things i can stick on a sample or a bass or a synth too make it sound instantly nice... i would put dub delay on a sample but not a lead synth or bass or master for example.. just wanted too know if theres anything i can stick on my old samples or leads that will make them sound instantly good quality.. my friend said sound goodizer from fruit loops is good. but i only think it works well on muffled old samples because it makes the clarity sound nice.. on a new sample it just sort of makes it tinny. but its cool for some of my oldschool samples too make them sound nice and masterd if ya know what i mean :S

i think, you are confusing mixing and mastering.
