| Algorithmix Noisefree Details
The NoiseFree™ DirectX/VST PlugIn effectively removes broadband noise from pre-recorded audio material. It has been designed to perfectly cover a wide range of applications: from the high-quality de-noising of valuable music treasures, to cleaning location recordings for film from environmental noise, even the treatment of critical forensic material recorded at a very poor signal-to-noise ratio and/or in reverberate environment.
Typical tasks for NoiseFree™ include removal of tape-hiss, surface noise of old records and optical soundtracks, broadcastwax cylinders, broadcast noise, microphone and preamp noise, as well as enhancement of conversations and interviews that lack intelligibility.
Unlike other systems, the NoiseFree™ DirectX/VST PlugIn works virtually without artifacts when using the correct settings for all parameters.
The de-noising process can work based on either the built-in white noise profile or a recorded noise profile. The unique Learn algorithm allows recording a noise sample from virtually any part of the audio material, even if there is no noise-only portion available. A sophisticated 5-band Noise Profile EQ is provided for modifying the shape of noise profiles and smoothing them for optimal performance.
Using only two sliders and a few presets you can get respectable results within minutes. The signal scope helps to properly adjust the Threshold. The unique Differ function allows monitoring of the signal part being removed in the de-noising process, which helps optimize the setup.
The advanced parameters Ambience, Recoveryand Decorrelation allow fine tuning NoiseFree™ to differentiate between real noise and sharp signal transients. The Chase function, mainly designed for speech de-noising, automatically detects any fluctuations in the background noise and adaptively adjusts the noise profile according to these changes.
NoiseFree™ works impeccably with sampling rates up to 384 kHz. Thus it is perfectly suitable for high-resolution DSD post-processing. Since the CPU requirement for the NoiseFree™ DirectX/VST PlugIn is quite low, you can change and optimize all parameters while listening to the audio material in real-time.
