Waves Audio has announced that is now shipping the new Clarity Vx and Clarity Vx Pro, two noise reduction plugins for vocal and voice recordings that are powered by the company’s Neural Networks AI technology.
The new plugins are designed to isolate vocals from ambience and background noise, removing the noise in real time and at high fidelity without artifacts. Clarity Vx and Clarity Vx Pro share the same Neural Networks audio engine, audio fidelity and real-time workflow.
Clarity Vx is the simpler of the two, made for music producers, mixers and musicians as well as podcast and video creators, whereas Clarity Vx Pro is the more advanced version, adding surgical features designed primarily for post-production engineers.
Clarity Vx includes two “catch-all” Neural Networks designed to address problematic scenarios:
— Broad 1 is better at preserving both the main and secondary voices, when more than one voice is present in the recording.
— Broad 2 is recommended for severe noises. It is also designed to be better at separating the main voice from secondary background voices, when more than one voice is present in the recording.
Clarity Vx Pro adds many advanced features, including Ambience Keeping to remove the voice and keep just the background ambience (for ADR tasks); four separate bands surgical multiband controls; Reflections control; and more. While the main control takes care of most of the heavy lifting due to the Neural Networks engine, the deeper controls are designed to allow engineers to further finesse voice repair tasks.
