Tonight, the Iozotope mastering assistance suggested no EQ changes

You are using 2 EQ's and a maximizer? So that is like 3 Eq's ..In a series.

Are you sure? I sense there is much doubt in your convictions. Give in to your hatred and your journey to the dark side will be complete.

If only for a moment.....
I already haven't a clue what is going on or what this thread is about.

The AI in a mastering plugin thinks my two-track is well balanced. This has never happened before, I feel like I accomplished something. Ignore the other EQ plugin that is doing automatic adjustments before Izotope, that is unrelated and in no way diminishes my achievement

What are you mastering? Looks like a fair amount of LF content. iZotope's assistant always puts a low shelf boost on my mixes, which I remove
. And, do you just let it "learn" over the entire track, or choose a couple different spots and see what it does?I like the Dynamic EQ (which you don't show), and like to see what they come up with for that over the mix or spot checking. I generally use the global EQ only a little.
(For LBS, the Maximizer is really a fancy limiter. I feel like it's pretty neutral, especially if you have the mix where you want it going on so it's not doing too much.)

I just go over the part with the most instruments involved. If it’s okay there I figure it’ll kind of balance out. I’m actually not too picky.
I also notice it likes to add a lot of sub if you let it. I’m not sure what they use for reference but it does seem a bit bass heavy. I wasn’t worried about it for this track since it sounded pretty good to me, my first thought was actually the plugin might just be broken. Big Sur did a number on them when I upgraded.

easlern , that has only happened "once" to me and I too took it as a compliment. Ozone Always wants me to cut some lows and boost from 1 to 2k. I have started loading ozone up pretty early on in a new project and just copying their EQ suggestion to a bus , then remove ozone. This has helped me get used to hearing a proper EQ as I keep building the song without competing with certain frequencys. Congrats ... mark
