Neutron Advanced

Achieve unprecedented focus and clarity in your mixes with Neutron. iZotope's innovative mixing plug-in combines the latest innovations in analysis and metering with award-winning audio processing. With powerful features like Track Assistant, Masking Meter, and Control, Neutron helps you quickly reach an optimal starting point, clearly identify perceptual frequency collisions, and fully wield creative control over all your mix decisions.

The Neutron mixing plug-in combines five great-sounding new processors with the latest in intelligent metering and analysis. Like having a virtual assistant, Neutron can listen to your audio, identify instruments, and offer tailored starting points for creating powerful mixes with focus and clarity while leaving all the creative control to you. The revolutionary new Masking Meter can help you visually identify frequency collisions between instruments, allowing you to tweak each track so it sits better in the mix. Optimized for mixing, you can use this on dozens of tracks to carve away muddiness and reveal new sonic possibilities in your mixes.

Meet Your New Assistant
An industry first, Neutron’s new Track Assistant lets you focus on what’s most important — your creative take on the mix. It’s like having an assistant engineer at your disposal 24/7. Different instrument tracks — like vocals, dialogue, guitar, bass, and drums — are automatically detected. Neutron then applies the spectral shaping technology within Neutrino to provide subtle clarity and balance to each of your tracks. After analyzing the incoming audio signal, EQ nodes are intelligently placed where Track Assistant thinks you need them, speeding up your workflow and eliminating much of the EQ guesswork.

Get recommendations for optimal starting points across all of Neutron's modules, including compressor thresholds, saturation types, and single vs. multi-band modes (including crossover points) – a huge time saver that can leave you feeling inspired. Typical software presets don't know what audio they're being applied to – until now. By analyzing your track material, Neutron can offer ‘infinite’ presets that are custom tailored to your sound while still allowing full control over all your mix decisions.

Unmask Your Mix
Another industry first, Neutron’s Masking Meter allows you to visually identify perceptual frequency collisions, which can result in guitars masking lead vocals, bass covering up drums, and other issues that can cause a “muddy” or overly crowded mix. Toggle seamlessly between any two tracks to carve out sonic space and ensure that each instrument has its own place to shine.

One Control To Rule Them All
Neutron’s Control plug-in allows you to paint with broad yet simple brush strokes to get high-impact, mix-shaping possibilities. Add Control to your master track for VCA-style adjustments over multiple parameters that control all instances of Neutron for truly unique and creative mixing options.

iZotope's Best Processing Yet
Neutron features some of the best audio processing that iZotope has ever created allowing you to achieve better sounding mixes inside your digital audio workstation. It includes five industry leading mixing processors, all zero-latency capable, including a static/dynamic Equalizer, two multi-band Compressors, a multi-band Exciter, and a multi-band Transient Shaper, as well as an ultra low-latency BS.1770 True Peak Limiter – perfect for all your mixing needs.

Perfect For Audio Post
Neutron Advanced is also a smarter way to mix for audio post production. Neutron’s high-quality, CPU-efficient audio processing offers zero-latency processing across all mixing modules, an award-winning BS.1770 True Peak Limiter, dynamic EQ with sidechaining to sonically balance sub-mixes, an automatic dialogue-polishing Neutrino mode, and surround sound support in all 5 modules and individual plug-ins.
