Restoration tools and new features in RX 12 Standard

RX 12 Standard adds several new features to the RX toolset. Stems View splits audio into stems through Scene Rebalance, Music Rebalance and Dialogue Isolate, so modules can be applied to individual elements before the signal is recombined for export.

De-bleed has been rebuilt with machine learning to remove unwanted bleed between signals, and it includes a real-time plugin version. Breath Control has also been rebuilt to detect, reduce and remove breaths in vocals and speech.

Music Rebalance offers real-time adjustment of individual mix elements and source separation for vocals, bass, percussion and other instruments, in offline or real-time modes.

Workflow and interface for music production

For music work, RX addresses common recording problems such as clipping, hum, sibilance and crackle. Loudness Optimize and Streaming Preview are included to help check levels before release.

RX 12 has a redesigned interface with a larger Spectrogram, a module search and a resizable History panel to track edits. Stems View brings processed stems back together for export.
