• DeClicker/DeCrackler: Remove clicks and pops from old records and other phonograph recordings and removes short impulse noises from digital sources. DeCrackler lets you remove sustained, quiet hissing from recordings.
• DeClipper: DeClipper can easily fix digital and analog artifacts resulting from A/D conversion or over-saturation on magnetic tapes to help you save damaged live concert recordings or interviews.
• DeHisser: Recordings made with microphones, pre-amps or transformers can often contain white noise. DeHisser removes this noise with ease.
• Wave Hammer 2.0: The new Wave Hammer 2.0 combines a first-class compressor with a volume maximizer. The tool compresses and smooths out peaks to achieve an even volume level which is then maximized to bring out the most in your tracks.
Dithering with POW-r algorithms
Perfect for post-production: POW-r algorithms let you get the most out of your recordings. SOUND FORGE Pro 12 – Steam Edition features the renowned MBIT+ Dither plug-ins from iZotope. These let you convert your projects to a range of different bit depths and control other parameters, such as dither mode, noise shaping, noise peak limiter and harmonics suppression.
