Native Instruments Music Production Suite 6 is a new software bundle featuring iZotope Ozone 11 Advanced, Nectar 4 Advanced, Guitar Rig 7 Pro, and more.
Simultaneously with the release of the new Guitar Rig 7 Pro, Native Instruments also released the Music Production Suite 6. A bundle that we know from the past with the label iZotope. Now, in version 6, under the leading company NI.
The new version features the all-new iZotope Ozone 11 Advanced, Nectar 4 Advanced, Native Instruments Guitar Rig 7 Pro, and more. The portfolio of the various sub-companies (iZotope, Plugin Alliance…) is getting closer and closer.
Music Production Suite 6
Version 6 is a new update for Native Instruments’ popular music software bundle, now including more than 30 plugins across NI, iZotope, and Brainworx product lines.
With industry leading mixing and mastering software used by top studios worldwide, Music Production Suite 6 features intuitive tools that speed up and simplify audio workflows, from first take to final mix.
Ozone 11 Advanced
The biggest news in the MPS6 is the all-new iZotope Ozone 11 Advanced. It comes with a new clarity module that maximizes the spectral power of tracks, ensuring there are no dull mixes. The new stem focus function is AI-powered and rescues problematic mixes by applying Ozone settings to isolated stems within the mix.
Then, you can work with the new separate transient/Sustain modes that provide precise control and creative options for enhancement. Upward Compress, on the other side, delivers a detailed, dynamic sound, and Assistive Vocal Balance places vocals perfectly in the mix.
Nectar 4 Advanced
Nectar 4 makes it easier than ever to achieve professional-quality vocals with a suite of plugins that provide complete control over vocal sound. Access powerful tools such as the Auto-Level module for as an intelligent and transparent alternative to a compressor.
The new voices module makes vocal layering and harmonic motion easy, and the new AI-powered Backer module is perfect for creating virtual background singers. Plus, you have the vocal assistant who analyzes your vocals and suggests improvements.
Guitar Rig 7 Pro
For the first time, the Music Production Bundle also features Guitar Rig Pro from Native Instruments. The new bundle features the fresh Guitar Rig 7 Pro with four new amps and pedals powered by machine learning, a new IR loader, a loop machine pro, and all-new lo-fi components. The latter consists of four new effects units perfect for adding character, texture, and warmth to your sounds.

First Impression
A bundle that keeps getting bigger. If it continues like this, it will become a new Komplete. Okay, since Iris 2 and BreakTweaker are no longer maintained and included, there are no more instruments in the bundle, but they may add new ones in the future.
But what is striking is that plugins such as Ozone and Nectar have significantly shorter lifespans and get updates faster—that is something I don’t like. I prefer software with a longer lifespan and free updates.
Native Instruments Music Production Suite 6 is available now for an introductory price of $449 instead of $599. They run as a VST3, AU, and AAX plugin on macOS (Intel + native Apple Silicon) and Windows.
