In fact, at roughly half the price of the original RX release, it’s a genuine bargain! Raising StandardsĮxcellent though the tools in RX6 Elements are, sometimes more challenging unwanted noises crop up, and that’s where the extended capabilities of the RX6 Standard edition become more appropriate.

There’s certainly enough functionality in RX Elements to deal with most routine audio-repair situations, and it’s all provided at a pretty attractive price, too. This suite of sophisticated audio-repair tools represents the core functionality of the original RX suite released back in 2008 - except that they’ve all improved considerably over the intervening years, both in capability and usability. Also included are a signal generator, spectrum analyser, waveform and spectrogram displays, waveform statistics reporting tool, a batch processor, and the ability to host third-party plug-ins in VST or AU formats within the RX environment.Īmong the key processing modules/plug-ins included in RX6 Elements are the superb Spectral Editor, which now has an improved Find Similar function to speed up the correction of repeating noises, the Voice De-Noise module, which works on both dialogue and sung vocals and is a variant of the Dialogue tab in the original De-Noise module, and the De-Clip, De-Hum and De-Click modules, the last of which is newly and very clearly improved. In essence, it is the former Plug-in Pack, but with the stand-alone Editor application bundled as well, so all the standard audio recording and editing facilities of the Standard and Advanced editions are provided, with tools to normalise or fade a track in or out, and to adjust its gain, phase rotation, stereo width and balance.

There are now three different variants of RX, starting with the relatively affordable entry-level RX6 Elements (which, in effect, replaces the previous RX Plug-in Pack), continuing with the most popular RX6 Standard edition, and culminating in the full-fat, all-options-included RX6 Advanced package, which is, it can’t be denied, pretty pricey! For demanding TV and film post-production users with generous budgets, the full RX6 Advanced edition is also available as part of a bundle in iZotope’s RX6 Post-Production Suite 2, which also includes the company’s Neutron Advanced, RX Loudness Control and Insight metering products, providing all the software tools anyone could possibly need to optimise their media sound.Īs you would expect, the low-cost RX6 Elements variant has limited functionality compared to the other editions, but it still contains a broad core of very useful and powerful tools. If only we had the natural intelligence not to make broken recordings in the first place, eh! Elementary, My Dear Watson In other words, iZotope are using artificial intelligence to fix our broken recordings. Most of the new processing modules are the result of ‘machine learning’, a technology whereby a computer algorithm examines a large number of tracks with a specific type of audio problem, and essentially teaches itself to recognise and remove the unwanted noises.

However, the one reliably regular event that doesn’t appear in my diary - but really should - is RX Day! I’m not quite sure which day it should be, exactly, but it has become unswervingly dependable that a new version of iZotope’s superb audio-repair tool will appear around April each year.Īs the version number increments annually, we are now up to RX6, and this latest release sees the introduction of no fewer than 10 completely new features and processing modules, plus valuable updates to seven of the existing modules carried over from RX5. My American friends even have a National Beer Day, which sounds like a lot of fun. For example, springtime in Britain brings us April Fool’s Day, the charity fund-raising Red Nose Day, Earth Day, as well as Mother’s Day, the Queen’s Official Birthday, and a smattering of bank holidays, to list just a few. My diary reminds me to celebrate a startlingly large number of annual events.
