Restoration bundles five essential repair tools against clicks, crackles, hum and noise into an all-in-one audio cleaning solution.

Clicks, crackles, noise and hum inevitably sneak into your audio. X-Click, X-Crackle, X-Hum, X-Noise and Z-Noise revive damaged recordings, rejuvenate old vinyl and shellac discs, protect archives, fix deteriorating film and television soundtracks and clean up live and field recordings, or prepare sounds for post-production, podcasts and remixes. Profile-based processes include learn modes to identify artifacts, Z-Noise removes profiled sound surgically, and spectral displays and meters show artifact attenuation. Monitor the cleaned audio, or just the audio being removed.
