iZotope RX 5 Audio Editor Now Available

Last month iZotope announced the new and improved RX 5 Audio Editor and their RX 5 Post Production Suite.

Their Post Production Suite has been available since the announcement in September, but at long last, the wait is over for the core RX 5 Audio Editor – The Advanced version of which is also included as part of their Post Production Suite.

Those who purchased the previous version of either of these iZotope products after September 9^th will be entitled to a free upgrade to RX 5.

The RX 5 Advanced real estate.

RX 5 Audio Editor
RX 5 Audio Editor’s new Instant Process tool lets editors “paint out” unwanted sonic elements directly on the spectral display with a single mouse gesture. The new Module Chain allows users to define a custom chain of processing (e.g. De-click, De-noise, De-reverb, EQ Match, Leveler, Normalize) and then save that chain as a preset so that multiple processes can be recalled and applied in a single click for repetitive tasks.

For even faster workflows between Pro Tools and RX 5 Audio Editor, RX Connect has been enhanced to support individual Pro Tools clips and crossfades with any associated handles so that processed audio returns “in place” to the Pro Tools timeline, maintaining complete editing control.

RX 5 Advanced

• De-plosive module – New module to minimize plosives.
• Leveler module – Enhanced with breath and ‘ess’ (sibilance) detection, while also performing faster than real-time leveling.
• Ambience Match module – Enhanced accuracy when creating noise profiles when matching background noise to mask edit points. Ambience Match is now also available as an AudioSuite plug-in for constructing consistent ambience beds under constructed sentences and ADR lines directly from within Pro Tools and Media Composer.
