A special modified version of reNOVAtor™ equipped with well prepared preset-like controls and thus especially suitable for very time-effective workflow.
Never before audio repair has been that easy and effective! easyNOVA™ removes unwanted audio incidents and replaces the vacancy with re-synthesized audio, intelligently created from surrounding context without affecting original audio in an audible manner.
The whole process is high-resolution and linear-phase, thus extremely transparent. Try to remove a feedback whistle occurring during a gentle violin ensemble part, without noticeably leaving traces of the edit with all the normal tools and techniques on your disposal. It ain’t easy! With easyNOVA™, it takes a few seconds and the result is jaw dropping.
What is it?
Denoising techniques work well for stationary or quasi-stationary broadband noise. Short clicks coming from old records or switching noise can be successfully removed and replaced by declicker plug-in. However, neither a denoiser nor a declicker can successfully cope with longer complex audio disturbances, especially if they overlap material you want to recover. This fact has motivated Algorithmix to develop a special tool, reNOVAtor™ and later its brother, easyNOVA™, especially optimized for time-effective workflow.
easyNOVA™ is intended to rescue high-resolution live or location recordings from extraneous sounds and unwanted audio disturbances. Often, from the performance point of view, brilliant live recordings can not be accepted for CD release, because of disturbing noises like coughs, squeaky chairs, feedback squeals, horn of a passing truck, a bell from the neighboring tower, or ring tones from a cellular phone. Such disturbances are especially critical if they occur in quiet passages when recording classical music. Similarly, location recordings film, broadcast or TV often include annoying incidents which disqualify them to be used as originally intended. In these cases any kind of traditional equalization or editing methods is very time consuming and causes audible discontinuities in desired signal and ambience. Often after hours of hard work even the best post-pro engineer will capitulate.
How does it work?
easyNOVA™ helps when all other editing tricks and processing methods fail. It allows localization, identification and very precise removal of unwanted audio events mostly without audibly affecting the audio material you want to keep. The removed sound is replaced by a signal re-synthesized from the surrounding material. Unlike time editing methods, easyNOVA™ does not make deep gaps in the sound track when eradicating a disturbing sound event. Rather, it’s an exactly tailored hole in the spectral representation of the processed signal that can be removed and replaced.
easyNOVA™ or reNOVAtor™?
easyNOVA™ is optimized for very time-effective workflow and therefore equipped with well prepared preset-like controls. It’s ideal for post-pro broadcast, TV and film engineers working under extreme time pressure. When you deal with extremely tenacious disturbances or you just want to broaden your abilities and increase performance in cleaning audio material do upgrade to reNOVAtor™ that features extended manual parameter setup and some additional advanced functions.
Features
- flawless operation with up to 384 kHz sampling rate, thus perfectly suitable for DSD post-production including cleaning in the ultrasonic range
- extraordinary sonic results compared to any other cleaning method, due to selective treatment of spectral representation of the signal and not its waveform
- audio fixes that were basically impossible until now
- enormous time saving in repairing critical live recordings
- easy-to-learn identification and localization of unwanted audio events
- well prepared preset-like controls for very time-effective workflow
- efficient removal of unwanted disturbances and their replacement by signals re-synthesized from the surrounding audio material
- all processing functions in linear-phase domain to prevent unwanted sound coloration
- no audible changes in desired signal and ambience after removal of typical discrete audio disturbances
- two different kinds of spectrum re-synthesis
- extended resolution for low frequencies
- resizable and zoomable spectrogram window for sound repairing with surgical precision
- audition of any marked area before and after processing
- multiple undo functions
- numerous shortcut functions for quicker workflow
- AlgoEdit™, an easy-to-use audio editor included
- difference function when using AlgoEdit™; your hear what you've removed
- all internal calculations in double floating-point accuracy (80 bits)
Applications
- removal of unwanted noises like sneezing, chair squeaks, coughs, car horns, coins and keys falling down, hits, bumps, rumbles, ringing of a cell phone etc.
- correction of instrumental tracks by removing scratches (guitar, violin), wrong notes, rustle of music sheets, breathing, lip-smacks and microphone pops of a vocalist, pedals of an organ
- restoration of old recordings by removing scratches and dropouts
- cleaning up location records for film and TV from environmental noises
- cleaning up poor recorded dialogs and telephone cuts to be restored for forensic purposes
- elimination of ultrasonic disturbances from DSD recordings
- increasing speech intelligibility in heavy forensic cases, even when the signal-to-noise ratio is around 0 dB
