Default mastering for ProTools 10.3.10

My ProTools 10.3.10 can only use Ozone 6 - for which I am looking for a license. And...doea another mastering program exist that is suitable for ProTools 10.3.10? I am a singer-songwriter - part hobbyist, part professional.

Just an opinion, but why limit yourself by sticking with an old version of PT? A newer version(like 12.x) opens up the world to you with plugin options. Or, don't master in PT and get Wavelab(Elements version if cash is tight). That works very well too with all current VST plugins. If you're thinking that you want to master while you mix, I do NOT recommend that. Make the mix as good as possible on its own. Then use mastering to put the final polish on

Thanks for the helpful insights. I'll look into Wavelab - sounds like it could be the answer. As you point out, PT 12 is the best solution, but then I'd have to buy a new computer to handle PT 12...., and so it goe$. Thanks again.
