A new range of RTAS and AudioSuite plug-ins for Mac and PC platforms, the Cedar Studio suite comprises advanced processes that address a wide range of common audio problems.
Each Cedar Studio process has been selected from Cedar Audio’s Cambridge flagship, and promises quick and accurate processing.
Adaptive Limiter
The Adaptive Limiter employs a unique new algorithm developed by Cedar. Offering peak and oversampling modes, it calculates a continuously varying EQ profile that constrains the peak level of the output while retaining the integrity of the input. The result is a perfectly controlled signal that remains much more natural than audio processed using conventional limiters. The Adaptive Limiter is also a loudness maximiser with advanced resampling and noise shaping capabilities for mixing, final mastering and other creative duties.
Declip
Declip allows identification and removal of most instances of clipping in a single pass, reconstructing the original signal, improving clarity, reducing or eliminating distortion, and restoring the original dynamic range of damaged audio.
DNS One
Widely used for dialogue noise suppression in film and TV studios, on location, in newsrooms and for sporting events worldwide, DNS One offers the same noise suppression as the DNS1000, DNS1500, DNS2000 and DNS3000. With a new multi-mono interface (DNS CS) that allows control of hundreds of channels of noise suppression (any mix of software and hardware) from a single Pro Tools host, the DNS process has rescued movies, TV programmes and live broadcasts by suppressing rumble, hiss, whistles, babble and general background noise.
Debuzz
Buzzes and hums can can be eliminated quickly and easily using Debuzz. This ‘powerful but simple’ process removes unwanted signal components across the entire audio spectrum, and is capable of removing all manner of buzzes and hums with fundamentals as high as 500Hz. Debuzz will also track wandering tones and, unlike traditional filters, can successfully restore audio without unwanted side-effects such as limited bandwidth or the hollow sound introduced by comb filters.
Host systems: Mac OS-X 10.5.8 and 10.6.x; PC Windows XP/Vista/7; and Pro Tools HD & LE, v8 and above.
Cedar Studio will be shipped in Q4, 2011 and available through Cedar’s worldwide dealer network.
