    Got some Waves plugs that you really want to have in your mastering chain? How about Air Windows 'Texturizer' vst for FiDef like 'fairy-dust' (I kinda think I hear it, you?)?

    Well, with Ozone 9, I've found some plugins will load up and others won't. No idea why. But one that DOES is
    BLUE CAT PATCHWORK!

    At any point in your mastering chain, if you feel you want a plugin that you must have in your chain, introduce this one VST and you can then include ANY other that you want! (Disclaimer for Waves, is that you must run your Waves products WavesShells (whatever version - I've done this right through 5 thru to 12) through shell2vst to separate the individual Waves plugs from the shell containing them. How-tos are out there if you search.).



    This has proven to be a game changer for me, as I have up to 8 to 10 plugs (most of them Ozone's, of course) running to make a master. CPU's gotta have guts though, I think.



    Enjoy!

    ...or use a daw like a sane person, to have maximum flexibility and also to be able to automate things throughout the song.
