Z-Noise is ideal for background noise such as tape hiss, ground hum, and computer noise, Z-Noise is a true broadband processor which can eliminate high-frequency hiss and low-frequency rumble simultaneously, while preserving the sonic integrity of your source.
Other noise reduction methods need you to provide a section of pure noise in order to deliver optimal results. Z-Noise features an "Extract" mode which can create a noise profile from sources that contain signal, as well as a flexible "Adaptive" mode. This dynamic noise profiling delivers results when reducing noise that changes over time.
Z-Noise gives you the power to shape your noise profile with pinpoint accuracy, using a familiar 5-band EQ interface. Real-time operation means you can fine tune parameters and hear your changes as you make them. You can monitor the entire Audio output or just hear the Noise being removed. Z-Noise even lets you choose between increased frequency resolution or improved time resolution, or a combination of the two.
Features/Controls:
- Analyzer displays the Input signal in Red, the Noise profile in White, Output signal in Green, and the EQ profile in Orange.
- Noise Profile EQ offers 5 Band On/Off, Band Type, Frequency, Gain, and Q controls to shape your noise profile.
- Threshold determines the level below which the noise profile is cleaned, while the level above the profile is unchanged or processed minimally.
- Reduction defines the amount of noise reduction applied to the signal below the Threshold.
- NR The Noise Reduction meter displays the amount of noise being removed.
- Release sets the time it will take for noise reduction or gain attenuation to occur.
- Attack is the time it takes for attenuation to stop or for the gain to rise.
- Transient preserves transients by enhancing them before the noise reduction process takes place.
- Knee adjusts the sharpness of the gain reduction curve below the noise profile.
- Learn Use it to create a noise profile when you have a sample of pure noise.
- Extract creates a noise profile from sections that have mixed signal and noise.
- Adaptive scans your track in real-time and creates a noise profile on the fly.
- Smooth sets the highest frequency resolution.
- Punch delivers the best time resolution, perfect for recordings with significant attacks and transients, like percussive sounds or plucked strings.
- Norm offers a balance between frequency and time resolutions.
- Output lets you choose between Audio (the audio after Z-Noise processing) and Difference (the noise being removed).

MaxxBass patent pending technology takes your bass to the maximum on more speaker sizes, from any source, by adding a series of harmonics to the signal.These harmonics stimulate a psychoacoustic bass-enhancing effect – a phenomenon that small speakers rely on to play audible bass.

Taken to the extreme, you can actually remove the original bass signal completely and the ear will still "capture" the fundamental from the added harmonics.Employing dynami... [more]
