• PRODUCTIVITY IMPROVEMENTS: Track import improvements, to make bringing content in from a variety of delivered reels and project files more flexible. Post Production Project Templates will get you started quickly with Dolby Atmos, ADR & MPEG-H projects.

TONAL MATCH

TonalMatch is a new direct offline process (DOP) which analyses the sound characteristics of an audio recording and enables it to be transferred to other clips, matching the spectral profile (EQ) and ambient noise floor. It can be used to match an ADR session to the original production sound more quickly and precisely than has previously been achievable using EQs and/or other editing plug-ins.

VOCALCHAIN PLUG-IN

Dialogue editing, processing and creative voice sound design are arts of their own, needing a lot of expertise and experience to master. The new VocalChain plug-in includes dedicated modules for the different steps of voice processing, helping to deliver excellent results. With a wide range of presets exclusively for post-production, VocalChain makes voice sound design faster and more efficient than ever.

DETECT SILENCE EXTENSIONS

Cleaning up dialogue while keeping background noise for use on a different track is easier with the updated Detect Silence panel. Instead of only stripping silent parts, dialogue content can now be split automatically, then events can be created for the silent and non-silent areas. Dialogue and silent events can then be edited individually, as required by the project.

BOUNCE EMPTY SPACE

Bounce Selection now allows blank audio clips to be created from any selection, which can be useful for filling gaps or for later offline processing.

AI-BASED VOICE SEPARATOR

VoiceSeparator is a new, AI based VST plug in which is trained to detect and isolate spoken dialogue from complex background noises, including other voices, and also to reduce or remove undesired voice sounds from background and ambient recordings.

Used as an insert effect or DOP, it can be used to quickly isolate the sounds that are wanted and to remove those that aren’t.
