Accentize has released ‘a significant update’ to its flagship dxRevive Pro speech restoration plug-in.
Based on feedback from audio professionals,the Version 1.2.0 update introduces three algorithms designed to further refine and enhance dialogue restoration – two enhanced versions of existing algorithms (Studio 3 and Natural 2) and the entirely new EQ Restore algorithm.
Studio 3 and Natural 2 build on the previous Studio and Natural algorithms, offering better stability across a wider range of recordings. Users can expect more effective high-frequency noise removal and improved resynthesis of missing low frequencies. While these will generally provide the best results, the older versions remain available for instances where they may be preferable. This backward compatibility ensures users can double-check and select the optimal algorithm for their specific needs using the algorithm selector window.
The new EQ Restore algorithm takes a different approach by focusing on spectral issues rather than noise or reverb removal. By applying EQ and spectral resynthesis selectively to speech components, EQ Restore preserves the natural ambience of recordings while enhancing speech quality. Unlike conventional EQ, which affects the entire signal, EQ Restore targets only the speech frequencies, leaving underlying noise or ambience unaltered
‘This new algorithm emphasises the difference between dxRevivePro and other noise reduction algorithms,’ says Accentize founder, Benjamin Graf. ‘An algorithm that does the EQ and resynthesis without removing ambience or reverb has been a highly requested feature, and this is a thing that none of the existing products offer, as far as I know. This new release underlines our commitment to audio professionals to continue to add value to our products after purchase.’
While the new algorithms are exclusive to the Pro version, owners of the regular dxRevive can explore upgrade options to benefit from these advancements.
