The complete sense check for your sound
See how your tracks stack up against the pros with the classic tonal balance meter, and easily see how your audio strays from the target with the brand-new Leveled View. Then, complete the picture with TBC’s three new meters: visualize vocals with Vocal Balance to confidently sit them in the sweet spot, analyze energy and impact with Dynamics, and assess immersion with Stereo Width.
Capture inspiration anywhere
Got a go-to reference track or a gold standard you wish you’d mixed? Turn any audio into your guide with the new standalone desktop app, letting you capture targets from any audio source like Spotify or YouTube. And inside your DAW, instantly capture live audio to create new targets – letting you save the profile of full tracks or mix elements for later, or easily compare songs across an album. You can even create custom references by combining any two targets with the weighted Target Blender, or dive into the redesigned Target Library to match your style with 30+ genre and subgenre curves – from classic hip hop to punk rock to K-pop.
See it, shape it, ship it
Okay, you’ve seen how your tracks stack up against the pros, but what now? TBC 3’s new built-in Hybrid EQ to the rescue. Make instant tonal tweaks with static and dynamic EQ nodes – a perfect combo with the new Leveled View to quickly close the gap against your references. And for deeper editing, connect to Ozone and Neutron EQs directly within TBC, or load your custom targets into Ozone to balance your track with iZotope’s full mastering toolkit. It’s never been easier to finish your mixes and masters.
