Here we are introduced to iZotope's RX10.
We see how to ensure we have the latest releases of RX10.
Our understanding of how the UI is presented is looked at here alongside the specifics of the audio displays.
We take a close look at the metering options here.
The spectrum analyser is extremely useful to help us visually see audio issues.
This is the first look at the Repair assistant and how it helps new users choose specific restoration modules.
We continue looking at the Repair assistant and how it helps us choose specific modules.
We conclude our trilogy of movies looking at the Repair assistant.
The different Declick modules are now assessed.
We continue looking at the different declick and decrackle modules here.
We look at using the DeEsser to eradicate problematic sibilance.
Here we use the DeBreath module to supress the volume of 'intakes of breath' in a vocal file.
We now reduce problematic P and B sounds with the DePlosive module.
We further adapt the lower frequencies using the EQ module before utilising different selection tools to focus in more precisely.
Here we see how to easily solve earthing hum issues in a file.
This is how to use the Voice DeNoise module on vocal files.
This is how to utilise the Spectral DeNoise module for complex audio files.
Here we see how to use fades to create silence when a DeNoise module is unrequired.
RX10 features two DeReverb modules. We look at both here.
The Interpolate module is used for repairing individual clicks below 4000 samples in length. This module corrects clicks by synthesizing a replacement signal based on the content in your selection. It can be used as a substitute for the ‘pencil’ editing tool found in many audio editing applications.
The Center Extract module preserves (using Keep Center) or removes (using Keep Sides) the center channel of a stereo file. Extracting the center will retain the center of a stereo field and attenuate everything on the sides, such as signals panned to the left or right.
Music Rebalance leverages a machine learning algorithm trained to identify and separate the following elements in a mix: Vocals, Bass, and Percussion. Any content that is not otherwise identified as Vocals, Bass or Percussion will be categorized as Other. This typically includes all the melodic instruments. The level of each mix element can be independently adjusted after separation.
Music Rebalance can be useful for adjusting the level of a particular mix element when the original tracks or stems are not available as an alternative solution. In some cases, it can also be used to isolate a single mix element (e.g. the lead vocal) by reducing the level of the other three mix elements.
Dialogue Isolate is designed to separate spoken dialogue from non-stationary background noise such as: crowds, traffic, footsteps, weather, or other noise with highly variable characteristics. It can be particularly effective at increasing the level of dialogue in challenging low signal-to-noise ratio recordings.
This is how to record directly into RX10.
This module allows you to adapt the pitch and formant of a voice to create new sonics.
This module allows you to easily adapt the pitch of the audio.
DeClip allows you to easily 'fix' digitally distorted / clipped audio.
This quick and easy Volume 1 guide to iZotope's RX10 is split in to two sections.
The first section contains narration that thoroughly explains various modules and functions. The second section is designed to illustrate some modules 'at pace' and, therefore, doesn't feature narration; instead captions are presented to explain the processes.
This course is designed as an introduction to some of the audio editing and restoration suite of modules contained within the program.
As the learner progresses through the course, s/he will gain a clear understanding of the user interface and how it differs to traditional audio editor applications.
The use of the spectrograph is explained so that the composite wave form and spectrograph view can be studied, analysed and understood prior to making editing and restoration decisions with the included modules.
RX10 contains a vast amount of editing and restoration modules - designed to address specific audio issues - and the learner will get a clear view of some of them in practical examples.
iZotope says; 'Things break. So does audio. Recorded sound is rarely perfect— in fact, it's often in really bad shape. That's why you need RX, the industry standard for audio repair that helps restore, clean up, and improve recordings in post-production, music, and content creation.'
Throughout this course, RX10 Advanced is used - but the majority of what is seen can be achieved with RX Standard too.
Practical examples are shown with the modules in use explained thoroughly.
Additionally, for new users to RX10, the Repair Assistant function is a great starting point.
'The Repair Assistant automatically recognizes specific problems and intelligently proposes a repair chain that you can modify to your liking with easy-to-use dials.'
