RX 5 ADVANCED AUDIO EDITOR HIGHLIGHTS

De-plosive: Instantly eliminate every single plosive from any dialogue track, with total transparency. This is an industry first.

Leveler: Smooth any volume inconsistencies for the best sounding take, with the automatic clip gain envelope created by the Leveler. Optimized for Dialogue with intelligent De-breath and De-ess algorithms, that automatically detect breaths and esses in a dialogue take, and then apply transparent clip gain adjustments while doing the overall dialogue leveling. This is an industry first. Optimized for Music with special noise floor handling.

Ambience Match AudioSuite Plug-in: Quickly fill in consistent ambience beds under constructed sentences and ADR lines right from within Pro Tools AudioSuite. No longer spend hours of time manually looping sections of ambience under a scene with ADR and broken-up sentences.

RX 5 AUDIO EDITOR HIGHLIGHTS

Instant Process tool: The one-click magic eraser for your audio. From unwanted cough to scene-interrupting siren, instantly paint away any audio problem in RX 5's Audio Editors spectrogram.

Module Chain: Remove distortion, clicks, interference, background noise, smooth out inconsistent volume and ambience. Whatever the multiple editing tasks, they can now be accomplished in a single mouse click to fire off all of your editing tasks at once.

Seamless Integration: Sync and integrate the power of the RX Audio Editor with any DAW or NLE timeline using RX Connect. Clip-by-clip and handles support added for the most efficient Avid Pro Tools post production workflow available.

Additional Features

Corrective EQ: Remove harsh high frequencies and whines, rumbles, resonances, distortion artifacts and accurately hone in on any problem frequency areas.

In addition, the Digital filter shapes allow for more precise cuts than previously possible.

• Corrective EQ presets to help mitigate unwanted resonances, codec compression artifacts and proximity issues.
• Module Chain presets offering complete dialogue and music editing workflows. Fix everything from digital interference, mouth and mic noises, background noise, inconsistent volume levels to headroom and clipping issues with a single mouse click.

• EQ Match presets to quickly match the spectrum of your audio with anything from top quality VO recordings, to counteracting the boxiness of lavalier microphones.

Signal Generator: Create precisely accurate test tones, calibration tones for post production delivery specs, “bleep” tones eliminate obscenities in a dialogue edit. The Signal Generator can also be used for important sequential editing tasks, from inserting silence to repairing DC offset.
