CEDAR Audio CEDAR Studio 9 Retouch

Audio restoration tool provding a wide range of time/frequency editing (TFE) capabilities allowoing you to define the temporal and spectral content of the sound you want to remove
MFR# CS9 Retouch

Product Description

When it was introduced, CEDAR Audio Retouch was a huge leap forward in sound processing technology. Unlike conventional restoration tools, it provided a wide range of time/frequency editing (TFE) capabilities, and allowed you to define the temporal and spectral content of the sound you wanted to remove. Nowadays, it allows you to mark and process complex areas in its spectrogram using the types of tools commonly found in powerful photographic and image manipulation software. This makes it possible to identify all manner of sounds and noises which can then be manipulated using any of the processing tools at your disposal.

Matching

Using machine learning to identify problems...

There are many occasions when you will encounter similar instances of unwanted sounds in a track - things such as hi-hat spill in a multi-track recording, over-excited sibilants and plosives in a vocal track, or even the repetitive noise caused by a piece of machinery in the background. Traditionally, one would remove these sounds by identifying each event individually and then defining it manually prior to processing. But this is time consuming... sometimes very time consuming. So wouldn't it be nice if your spectral repair tool could look at the first instance that you identified and then go on to find all of the others? Well, it can.

Match allows you to mark one of the offending sounds and then ask the machine learning algorithm in Retouch 8 to find all of the other instances within the recording. A threshold control even allows you to bias its decision making toward including more or fewer possibilities so that you can find the level that includes everything that you want to remove but precludes events that seem similar but are actually wanted signal.

Having identified all of the matches, you can then eliminate them using the appropriate Retouch tool. You can process them individually, authorizing and applying the chosen tool to each, or you can process all of the matches as a group, whereupon Retouch 8 will fly through the whole file in a tiny fraction of the time needed with human intervention. The increase in productivity is absolutely remarkable.

The Tools:

  • Interpolate
  • Patch
  • Copy
  • Erase
  • Volume
  • Repair
  • Cleanse
  • Revert

So why should you choose Retouch? It's because it does the job better than anything else, providing clinical and seamless repair of otherwise intractable problems without leaving behind (or, for that matter, introducing) unwanted artifacts. With its slick user interface and enhanced processing capabilities, Retouch stands alone as the spectral editor of choice for the top mastering studios, mix suites, post houses, forensic laboratories, and anyone else who needs to be able to identify, isolate and manipulate individual sounds within an audio file.

SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS:

  • OS: OSX 10.12 Sierra or higher; OS 11 (Big Sur) is supported
  • Plug-in Formats: VST, Audio Units, or AAX Native for Pro Tools 11 and higher
  • Authorization: iLok Smart Key, users with older HSP dongles need to switch to iLok

I would like to thank VK for the wonderful sales assistance, service and prices. This was my first purchase with you and it won't be my last. I only wish I'd discovered you years ago!

I had two Grammy wins this year - Ray LaMontagne & Carolina Chocolate Drops. Both made with help from Vintage King!

In almost 20 years in Pro audio buying, never did I receive a unit so well packed and exactly as described. Works flawlessly. The whole process has been so smooth. I will never hesitate to do business with you guys in the future and will recommend you to everyone I know.

This was my first experience buying something from Vintage King (although I surf the "used" categories on the website frequently!), and, despite being on the other side of the world, I had absolutely no trouble and everything went very smoothly.
Phil T.
The speed of delivery exceeded my expectations! I was VERY pleased that my shipment arrived in time for a scheduled vocal tracking session. The packing insured that my order arrived safely. And the sales staff responded quickly to questions regarding the product.

My experience with Vintage King was excellent. The order was here fast considering it was out of stock. The sales person had SKB send it to me directly and I couldn't have been more pleased.
Michael D.
From the minute I placed my order I was kept well-informed through each step in your process. Even though I was buying a comparatively modest piece of gear, your attention to detail made me feel like I was purchasing a six-figure mixing desk.
