Question Izotope Alloy - anybody using it?

I was reading about this in SOS last night and downloaded the demo, but haven't had a chance to check it out yet. It looks amazing and the price is nice for all the features ($249 [$129 for Ozone owners]). Anybody here been using it? What are its strengths/weaknesses?

I know it's supposed to have the 'Ozone' sound.

The Ozone sound is frickin amazing.


As long as CPU isn't an issue like it is with Ozone (where it deosn't matter as it's for the master only really) then it's probably a goodun.

Saying that I have a huge amount of channel plugs already.


How useful is MY advice?

It doesn't seem all that different from Ozone so if you already own Ozone, then I can't really see much incentive to picking it up. Personally, I'm kind of wary of solutions that bundle EQ, Compressor, etc. into one plugin unless its modeled like a proper channel strip. I like to apply different plugin flavors depending on the source material. However, Izotope puts out good stuff for the most part, so I'll be interested in hearing other people's opinions.

Alloy is a zero-latency channel strip plugin that is designed to be used in real-time - Ozone is not. The modules are also quite a bit different. Ozone is designed as a mastering plugin, but a lot of people try to use it as a real-time plugin and that's why they experience the huge CPU hit and increased latency.

I see, I wasn't aware of that. Thanks, I'll take another look at it.
