Izotope’s Neutron 4 Elements channel strip plugin is currently available to download for free until July 8th, 2024.
The product is normally priced at $49 and is available in AU, VST3, and AAX plugin formats for Windows and Mac.
Neutron 4 Elements is the little brother of the full Neutron 4 suite, which costs $249.
However, the Elements version still packs plenty of handy features for super-charging your workflow.

Neutron 4 Elements is an AI-powered channel strip, and it is designed to “Sculpt sounds seamlessly while staying in your flow and mix in the moment.”
The appeal of this release is the integration of AI features within a single channel strip, so you can dial in the sounds you want quickly and with a smooth workflow.
Neutron 4 Elements was released in November 2022 and featured a significant revamp of the features from the previous Elements release.
Let’s look at what the developer has integrated into the current release.
Neutron 4 Elements features Master Assistant, which has matching technology for tone, dynamics, and width.
This allows you to match the tone of whatever reference file you plug into the suite.
The Master Assistant can take on drums, bass, guitar, vocal, or other audio tracks to deliver the match you’re after.
The developer has provided presets for this match feature, although you can also build your own with “stems, sounds, and acapella for every situation.”
Neutron 4 Elements pairs with the Audiolens referencing app, which can match your reference tracks from streaming services or any audio source.
The Master Assistant is integrated into Assistant View, a control center for “fast, personalized results.”
The Assistant View “intelligently suggests processing for your audio that can be fine-tuned to your liking and lets you mix even faster.”
This is achieved by the Intent controls, where you can make improvements such as dialing in punch, distortion, and width before moving into the Detail View for fine-tuning.
Neutron 4 Elements is compatible with macOS Big Sur (11.7) to Ventura (13.5) and Windows 10 to 11.
Apple silicon native chips (M1, M1 Pro, M1 Max) are supported for faster processing.
The plugin is available for free download directly from iZotope’s website. You will receive a serial code to unlock and authorize the plugin.
Alternatively, you can download Neutron 4 Elements from Plugin Boutique. The website currently offers the Ozone 11 Elements plugin for free with any paid purchase.
