Its advanced processes isolate and eliminate audio artifacts and remove unwanted noise without damaging the program material. The processes can be used to remove hiss, scratches, hum, and mechanical and impulsive noise, as well as to restore old recordings, remove noises from field recordings, and repair audio material that has suffered damage.

The suite of tools offers both automatic and manual means of analysis and repair. The feature set makes it ideal not only in the mastering and re-mastering stages of audio production, but also for many other audio treatments needed to restore, clean, or enhance recorded material.
