[RWP] Is Izotope an accessible VST?

[Scott Chesworth]

It's a mixed bag, hard to give a definitive answer without knowing
which titles and tasks you're interested in. I've got Ozone 5, Alloy,
Nectar and RX 2 here, which all get a fair amount of use. Ozone and RX
aren't the latest versions, I just haven't seen enough movement on the
accessibility front to justify upgrading. For the ones that are
accessible, I'd classify them as kind of usable rather than 100%
accessible, reason being that they do still seem to need a bit of
trickery here and there and all of them seem to have their quirks.
Lots of parameters are exposed to automation though, so if you like
that method of using plugs then you're in good hands.

Let us know more specifics, might be able to narrow down what works
and what doesn't for you.
