Product Description

Waves Native Restoration Bundle (Macintosh and Windows)
The Restoration processor bundle provides removal of unwanted background noise and disturbing signal transients without affecting the original sound for applications including audio postproduction, remastering, broadcasting, video, film and forensics. Waves audio processing Plug-Ins are the quality standard for thousands of top audio professionals all over the world. Waves new Restoration bundle has addressed the increasing demand for real-time noise and transient elimination tools. It establishes a new standard for quality and simplicity in software based noise reduction and sound restoration tools for post-production, remastering, and forensics applications.

The Restoration bundle includes four new Plug-Ins; X-Noise, X-Click, X-Crackle, and X-Hum, all based on the outstanding audio restoration technology licensed from Algorithmix GmbH, Germany. X-Noise intelligently learns from a section of noise, and then applies a broadband noise reduction to eliminate background noise from any source. X-Click effectively removes clicks from 78's or vinyl records, as well as spikes arising from digital switching or crosstalk. X-Crackle is the second stage in the restoration of old records eliminating crackles and surface noise left after the X-Click process. X-Hum attenuates steady pitched low frequency disturbances, such as ground loop hum and its harmonics. It is also intended to reduce the rumbles, microphone pops, and even DC-offset.

Establishes a new standard for software based restoration and noise reduction.
Utilizes the latest in psycho-acoustic research and multi-level decision algorithms.
Fast and incredibly simple to use, providing feedback through audio output, audio difference and intuitive graphics.
Quality comparable to reference hardware costing up to 10 times more.
