My "Loyalty" upgrade offer for Neutron 4 is $149. My "Loyalty" offer for Music Production Suite 5 is $249--this in spite of already having every product in Suite 5 except Neutron 4 (I also have RX 9 Advanced). Isotope upgrades are overpriced. Except for RX 9 Advanced, I'm going to stop upgrading.

@@noahwallace3458 I hope that you will allow me to use my plugins in a way that suites me. If I make money using plugins, I can do so with non-iZotope types and even the venerable Neutron 3. The $149 upgrade price is too expensive for me. I appreciate iZotope's willingness to negotiate a lower price and I may take them up on this offer. Since you have such strong feelings regarding iZotope's profit margin, perhaps you should negotiate for a higher price.
some of it seems pretty cool but I'd rather have some more basic features that are currently lacking? linear phase EQ? custom time settings for dynamic EQ? Look ahead? oversampling? Ms ? a mix and makeup gain slider for every module? so much just really simple useful stuff is missing.

Just use a DAW where you can oversample any plugin you want (Reaper, Cakewalk,...). So you don't have to choose your tools based on this feature. Linear Phase mode is not important for most mixing decisions and if it is, there are plenty of other tools available. Usually you care most about linear phase in mastering. I think the algorithms behind the dynamic eq prevent custom settings. And it works quite well. If it doesn't, try to add tools to your bucket that do so. Price wise Izotope products offer so much, that it is kinda ridiculous to blame them for missing features. Just don't rely on one tool. It is hard to find tools combining so much features. I appreciate that.

The EQ that comes with Ozone has mid side functionality. It can also be used as an individual plugin. I'm assuming they wouldn't add it to Neutron so that you would still be forced to buy Ozone or a bundle
That's really fun to see how the GUI is still sluggish, especially on the official demo video :) 250 bucks for dynamic equalization with side-chain(look for free TDR Nova), transient shaping aka "punch mode"(look for free Kilohearts Snap Heap, with great possibilities for modulations and 30 free great plugins included), saturation/distortion aka "trash mode" (Killohearts Snap Heap is still here). Still sluggish interface, no M/S Mode, no Advanced dynamic EQ, no additional EQ modes(linear/natural phase), heavy on CPU, not the straightforward interface(Alloy 2 is still more simple and versatile). Great job iZotope :D That's fake update and robbery, guys.

@@parboilrice If they pay any attention to the response of AVID customers when they went complete subscription mode- they won't do it. However...they really should add pretty much every single one of those things listed...this is literally v4 of the plugin. Although it would get heavy on CPU...there'd actually be a reason for it to be heavy on CPU. Right now its heavy on CPU for no apparent reason other than inefficient coding
I actually used this to breathe life into some backing tracks, and full recordings I couldn’t separate. I had files made in 2004-2006 and lost a lot of the original session. But had the full 88.2khz 2 buss Wav tracks. They just needed some decent overhaul mastering. I didn’t want to rack my brain, over a small reunion gig project. Usually I’ll do my own mix on a buss, and then actually put Neutron on an Aux send. I’ll have it feed it with or without plugins I’ve applied. Then I’ll add a bit of both sometimes, or eliminate one of the other. The send aux allows me to see if it’s going to work. But this helped on old flat mono mixes I made 20 years ago…that I needed again to play live! I just don’t have time to really go all surgical without the stems I lost back then. So this had been an invaluable “enhancer” on backing tracks, and songs I have in singular wav files that may be old. It’s been the best software to get them up to today’s standards. I’ve used the Fab sets and still do…but for sampling break beats, hits and songs you have no stems for, this software can work very well for that! And be an all in one enhancer! I usually do a wet/dry and never 100%. If the issue is very obvious, I’ll fix it with EQ or dive deeper into the software. Reminds me of the Waves CLA plugins, I’d use for a cheap acoustic/singer song writer session fee. It’s not perfect, but gets it 70% there without having to second guess much depending on context. I do live backing drums and synth tracks in a band, while playing guitar. This is really helpful to pull those old tracks out, and have a better live mix.

Does Nuetron 4 "listen" to the other tracks\mix to best ensure the changes it makes on the chosen track fit optimally in overall mix?

Just dove in. I absolutely love this.
Looks and sounds awesome
I was expecting sooo much more from Neutron 4
Ohhhhhhh so Less CPU Overload is a thing in Neutron 4 now! Damn I was like how tf does it not lag as much as Neutron 3 and I got my answer here! Also I love the new UI and also added features. Probably it would still need more improvements but what we got for now is 🔥🔥🔥
Still no linear phase EQ choice ! I wish you implemented it for multimic recordings.
I have a question, at this point would iZotope's Suite be better or FabFilter's?
I have had the Izotope Suite for a while now and I am not using Neutron and Nectar for two reasons and I wonder if others feel like that, so Izozope could make a big improvement for our workflow: Firstly I find the exciter MUCH too strong, it would be good if there was a way to generally tell Neutron and Nectar if you are an exciter friend instead of turning it down everytime. Secondly, Izotope Products stand for ease of use and a quick first result; but actually it takes VERY long to have the AI run over EACH TRACK separately and then OZONE for the master. So what I would love to have is the following (inspired by your intercommunication e.g. with the visual mixer): I would like to have one instance of Neutron/Nectar on my standard chain on each track on bypass (zero latency!), so whenever I open a new track, it is on, but does not cause disturbance. When I am done with the song, I would love to have a "remote" plugin like the visual mixer (or even Ozone) und the Master track, to switch them all on at once, run the song, all instances do their thing during that run through and that way all AI magic is done AT once. Then I can go through and check each track and fine tune. That would save SO MUCH TIME for doing that for EACH TRACK. Does anyone else feel that way?

What musical instruments and genres has the AI been trained on? It sounds like it has a bias for pop and electronic music, and feels like it makes a "bright" mix by default in reaction to the loudness wars. If you're making music with instruments other than guitar, bass, vocals, drums, and piano, then it really hasn't "learned" how to mix them.
