Dialogue Isolate is pretty miraculous as it is, but the demo on the website - has me salivating with the clarity. It's sorta light on the number new features, but two of the three are potentially huge for me, algorithm improvements to Dialogue Isolate, Ambience Match and hum.

It's out and I am potentially ecstatic, though the headline is - this is a Post update, not a music one. Hope they used AI to read your mind so that we'll get Clarity to our mixes. Sounds like an interesting feature request and probably what would give a better dialogue de-noise result. Didn't get extra paid for it but I'm so sick of the RX 'sound' so I did it anyways. That gave a better result, but obviously took longer to mix. I was more thorough with EQ and offline processing. Last few series I worked on had no de-noise on them. Now it's what producers/creators expect us to use and it so damn flat sounding. But they don't really play in the same league, so sorry that I brought it up.Īnd don't get me wrong I use RX8 everyday, I wish they'd stopp adding stuff and dedicating all their resources to better realtime noise reduction.ĭialogue de-noise could be the best thing ever. I'll have to disagree with the Cedar part, they are miles ahead when it comes to instant results. In fact such a control could be musically interesting too, so you could brighten or tame those very specific voice components without affecting the tonal balance of anything else. I think with their dialogue detection algorithms it could be possible. For really terrible quality buried lav mics, I often manually have to go through boosting the gain for all the Sss, Shss, Fffs, so all the other stuff isn't also boosted with horrible side-effects you'd get on poor quality material if you used regular EQ.

I did only a few weeks ago request a feature that obviously can't be in this version, unless they'd read my mind good and early. BUT the really good stuff in RX is not real time so it's not a fair fight, granted. Will it be more music oriented fixes or will they AI-try to reach the excellence that is Cedar?Īctually I think RX is considerably better than Cedar (especially their newer D units where they couldn't get the same chips as the model before, and sound bloody awful IMO). First update under the Native Instruments umbrella.
