Waves Phil Manchester Audio Forensics Package (Native)

The W43 Native from Waves is a noise reduction plug-in inspired by, and built on the legacy of the renowned CAT 43 processor. Ambient noise such as hiss, hum, traffic, wind and air conditioning noise can all wreak havoc on film/video production dialog tracks.

With four fixed frequency bands, the W43 is an affordable, easy-to-use plug-in for post production that delivers high-quality noise reduction with minimal artifacts (like the original hardware), while providing all the advantages of software, such as multiple simultaneous instances.

X-Noise Native from Waves is an audio restoration plug-in that employs the same intuitive controls often found on traditional dynamics processors used for removing tape hiss, air conditioner or computer noise from individual tracks, complete mixes, or damaged recordings. The noise can be modulated while preserving the sonic integrity of the source. An Audio/Difference switch allows for monitoring just the offending artifacts.

X-Crackle Native from Waves is an audio restoration plug-in that employs advanced psycho-acoustic algorithms to remove crackles and surface noise from vinyl records and damaged recordings. The crackles and surface noise can be modulated while preserving the sonic integrity of the source. An Audio/Difference switch allows for monitoring just the offending artifacts.

L1 Ultramaximizer Native from Waves is a plug-in that provides dynamics control for any audio application, from multimedia to mastering. The software features look-ahead peak limiting, level maximization, and high resolution re-quantization, and is well known for its transparency and punch.

X-Hum Native from Waves is an audio restoration plug-in that employs an easy to use interface to attenuate ground loop hum, DC offset, and low-frequency rumble caused by turntables and tape machines. Using eight harmonically linked notch filters allows for modulating the noise while preserving the sonic integrity of the source. An Audio/Inverse switch allows for monitoring just the offending frequencies.

X-Click Native from Waves is an audio restoration plug-in for use with native based audio systems that removes transient noise often found in vinyl and shellac records. Clicks, spikes, switching noise and digital crosstalk material can be modulated while preserving the sonic integrity of the source. An Audio/Difference switch allows for monitoring just the offending artifacts.

Q10 (Native) from Waves is a paragraphic EQ plug-in that features up to ten bands. The software delivers precision equalization for mixing and mastering alike. Each band features the same extended frequency range and the ability to narrow the bandwidth (Q) for more surgical tasks.

With presets that cover a wide range of applications, and advanced noise shaping, the Q10 provides the tools for creating special effects and spectral modifications that range from subtle to extreme.

The PAZ Analyzer from Waves is an audio analysis plug-in that is as accurate as it is easy to use. The analyzer generates a comprehensive real-time visual representation of the audio's stereo positioning, frequency spread, and Peak/RMS levels. It shows L/R peak and RMS displays, with individually re-settable peak hold values. It has optional resolution in 10Hz steps for precise analysis below 250Hz, and the 52 or 68 band analysis graphic output can be saved to memory via a text file. The PAZ shows real-time vector display with zoom at up to 24-bit/192kHz resolution, and works with mono or stereo components.

The plug-in functions with any digital audio software that supports RTAS, Audio Units or VST plug-in formats and is cross platform compatible between Mac and Windows.

C1 Parametric Compander Native from Waves is a dynamics processor plug-in featuring three distinct modules. The Compressor/Expander, Gate/Expander, Filter/EQ sections allow the plug-in to fulfill multiple functions, either as separate processors, or combined for maximum flexibility.
