I also use the multiband stereo feature, pulling the low into the centre and pushing the top out to the edges. I use the multiband compressor to keep everything under control, it allows me to push both the lows and the mids hard without them getting out of control. Ozone 5 has a number of uses for me on a mix. See our UAD ATR102 review here iZotope Ozone 5

The ATR-102 is great at gluing a mix together and doing some audio magic, in fact the kind of thing printing a mix to tape does - funnily enough.

It has a great sound and best of all some excellent presets. There are a lot of tape emulations on the market, but I keep going back to the ATR-102. See our Slate VBC review here UAD ATR-102 Of all the Slate plug-ins this one is my favourite.

The VBC is my go-to plug-in for both mix and drum buss processing, although modelled on some very famous hardware, the combination of the unique Slate tweaks to the models, the ability to combine the three units, the filtering and the option to mix both clean and processed signals make this a winner for me. Below are my top 5 go-to plug-ins, all used for various reasons and not all at the same time. An essential part of my mix chain is the plug-ins applied to the mix buss.
