Gday

There used to be an old Steinberg plug called "Denoiser". It's gone into Nuendo but not Cubase

Also in Wavelab but I dont have that.

They used to sell it individually but not any more.

Anyone know of a simple VST Denoiser that is similar? It only had a few controls but I find it perfect for cleaning up my own samples when they are sampled at low volume...

Thanks for any tips

Voxengo Redunoise seems to be good. I've only tried the demo, but I got good results, barring the demo volume drop. Check it out.

i second, tried the demo too, for that price/quality ratio, you simply can't go wrong ( even with a few more detailed parameters that steinberg's denoiser

)

That's definitely worth look at. $100 a bit more than I hoped to pay but I'll check it out thanks.

For a fraction of the price you could check out Magix AudioCleaning Lab. Uses the same algos as in Samplitude/Sequoia, like denoiser, dehisser, declipper, declicker and spectral cleaning. It's a standalone app, though.

Saccha - Doesnt Sequoia use algos from Algorithmix for their noise redux?

Algoritmix' ReNOVAtor & Denoiser Pro are optional for Sequoia, if you mean that.
Funny thing is, CleaningLab partly uses Algorithmix technology. But the license only covers our consumer product range, so that does not include Sam/Seq. There, we use our own technology. The new spectral cleaning in CL and Sam/Seq V9 is also based on our own research.

I would say the old BIAS soundsoap plug would be equivalent.

Redunoise is very good though - although it needs alot of latency.

Have you tried using a multiband compressor set up as an expander in the hi-freq domain instead?

Kind regards

Sasha that sounds really tempting (and I use your blockfish a lot still! so I respect your opinion !)

Where do you get these tools from? Pity about none VST though, as I usually apply denoise through cubase vst/dx offline processing.

(no havent ever tried a multiband compressor, how is this going to work for noise covering a wide spectrum? With the steiny denoiser, it seems to handle a consistent noise over the whole spectrum reasonably?

hmm soundsoap does look nice and simple too, but it's the same price as voxengo, $100 - if it was cheap id be tempted, probably better to look at voxengo instead.

sometimes is works very well indeed. in essence if your noise is quieter than the signal by a reasonable amount then you can quite often get better results using an expander.

Sonitus multiband compressor works for this, but voxengo soniformer should also work - any multiband compressor that allows expanded ratios should do.

Kind regards

hmm soundsoap was cheap, maybe you're looking at the pro version?

Kind regards

Something like the old Steinberg Denoiser ...
