Accusonus Introduces ERA 4 De-Esser Pro

Information

Accusonus introduced the ERA 4 De-Esser Pro. It is a sophisticated, yet fast and easy to use de-essing plug-in. It offers precision-grade de-essing and customizable audio repair functionality. Based on the multi-patented accusonus algorithms, De-Esser Pro simply works and allows for efficient sibilance removal from audio recordings.

Don’t let those sharp esses pierce your eardrums. Harsh sibilance can be very annoying in both dialogue and vocal recordings. Getting rid of those noisy high-frequency consonants can be a complicated, time-consuming task. This is why we developed an easy-to-use, fast and powerful tool that requires minimum effort but offers great results.

In most cases, all you’ll have to do is tweak the large white knob until those sharp and shrill esses are gone. But ERA D-Esser Pro offers some extra controls to give you the granularity you need to really dive in and fine-tune the settings for when you’re fixing up a really bad recording.

Features include:

  • FOCUS control: Fine tune the engine processing by spotting problematic frequency region, without affecting any other frequencies.
  • FOCUS range audition button: Preview the selected FOCUS range without any processing applied onto it. This way you can spot any problematic region much easier.
  • SHAPING control: Another parameter to fine tune the processing. Moving the slider toward SHARP side, a more steep curve is applied onto the sibilance region, leading to a tighter result.
  • DIFF button: Listen to what is being removed from your recording during processing.
  • Real-time Processing Display (waveform view): Visualize any detected sibilance.

Accusonus Released the ERA Voice Leveler

Information

Accusonus announced the release of the ERA Voice Leveler. It uses new patent-pending algorithms to automatically detect distracting level differences in voice recordings and correct them in real-time.

Using the single-knob ERA Voice Leveler you can save yourself from hours of manual gain adjustments, without leaving your DAW or NLE environment. Use the Voice Leveler to fix vocal dialogue volume problems resulting from:

  • Intentional or unintentional speaker movements
  • Single-microphone recordings of two or more speakers (e.g. interviews, lectures, etc)
  • Sudden gain changes due to audio/video edits and rearrangements in post production
  • Time-varying voice-over or vocal performances

The ERA Voice Leveler detects level problems in real time and you can control it with the turn of a simple dial. It also features a “Tight” mode that provides a more focused “radio” sound that stands out from background music (e.g. audio and video ads, podcasts, vlogs, etc).

The unique “Emphasis” mode automatically detects problems in tonal balance of voice recordings (for example, when a speaker is not directly facing the microphone or has moved significantly from the mic between takes/scenes) and applies subtle processing to correct them and ensures consistent tone and ineligibility.

The ERA Voice Leveler will be part of both the ERA Bundle Standard and the ERA Bundle Pro.

Accusonus Licensed Advanced Audio Repair Technology to Adobe

Information,

Accusonus, a leading provider of machine learning-based software products for audio repair and music production announced it has licensed its patented single-channel noise and reverb removal technology to Adobe.

The Accusonus audio repair algorithms enable high-quality audio enhancement within easy-to-use, fast and efficient workflows. The new technology will be incorporated into the next releases of Adobe Premier Pro CC, and Adobe Audition CC, both part of the Adobe Creative Cloud.

In addition to the noise and reverb removal technology in the upcoming releases of Adobe Premier Pro CC and Audition CC, Accusonus offers a suite of Enhancement and Repair of Audio (ERA) single-knob plugins and will soon be introducing two new offerings available for separate purchase: The ERA De-Clipper and ERA Voice Leveler.

With these new additions, the standard Accusonus ERA Bundle – which includes ERA Noise Remover, ERA Reverb Remover, ERA De-Esser, and ERA Plosive Remover – will total six plugins.

All Accusonus ERA plug-ins have been tested extensively and work seamlessly within Adobe Premier Pro CC and Adobe Audition CC. Each of these solves an important, common audio problem by offering high-quality processing in a streamlined workflow. The ERA Bundle Pro adds ERA-D, a joint de-noise and de-reverberation tool that offers a dual channel workflow and spectral band processing.

Acusonusus’ ERA Bundle plugins run on both Windows and Mac platforms.

Accusonus Regroover Pro 30% off for a Limited Time

Information,

Regroover LogoMusic and audio producers are always looking for new and exciting sounds to use within their projects. And while there are plenty of options available in terms of free or paid-license sample libraries out there, sometimes it’s best to try and come up with something that’s totally different. That’s where Regroover, a software product from Accusonus, comes in.

Accusonus describes Regroover as:

Create new sounds from old or simply adjust the volume of individual elements inside a loop. Regroover uses Artificial-Intelligence to extract layers from within your previously recorded beats and samples. Once Regroover analyzes the file, you are able to make your own drum kits and combine them with external sounds to make new beats, loops and your own unique Expansion Kits.

Regroover offers two versions of the application. The full-featured version, Regroover Pro, is now available at a 30% discount. Here are some key features that can be found only in Regroover Pro:

  • Build your own Expansion Kit with any element inside your loop which makes for rapid-fire MIDI triggering of samples to make new beats and grooves
  • Create Regroover Projects with both external and found sounds from inside your loops
  • Grab that magic kick, snare or clap and place it on its own trigger pad.

This special 30% discount on Regroover Pro expires today. If you think Regroover would be beneficial for your next audio project, you can purchase the software here.

Reimagine Your Digital Audio Samples with Accusonus Regroover

Information, ,

Regroover LogoAudio producers usually have a large library of digital samples. But how many times can you hear that same set of sampled drum or bass loops before they start getting stale? One way to breathe new life into those old samples is to manipulate them into something that sounds entirely different. That’s exactly what Accusonus is doing with its new Regroover software:

Create new sounds from old or simply adjust the volume of individual elements inside a loop. Regroover uses Artificial-Intelligence to extract layers from within your previously recorded beats and samples. Once Regroover analyzes the file, you are able to make your own drum kits and combine them with external sounds to make new beats, loops and your own unique Expansion Kits.

Regroover allows you to:

  • Unmix your loopes and create new beats and music
  • Play or program the sounds from inside your loops to produce new rhythms and grooves
  • Dial in volume, panning, and effects of individual layers of your mixed beats for better balance or more variety to your looped patterns
  • Extract strange and new sonic elements for experimental grooves and soundscapes

Regroover from Accusonus comes in two versions. Regroover Essential has all of the core features you’ll need to get creative with your samples, while Regroover Pro allows you to experiment with layers, effects, and more.

Regroover Essential retails for $99. Regroover Pro is priced at $149. Both can be purchased from the Accusonus Store.

Accusonus ERA-R is the World’s First Single-Knob Dereverberation Plugin

Information, , ,

ERA-R PluginIn a perfect world, all audio recordings would be made in a controlled studio environment with proper acoustic treatments and sound proofing. That way, the captured audio would be as clean and dry as possible. But, with the proliferation of low-cast audio recording systems, a modern-day recording “studio” could be anything from a cavernous cathedral to a small bathroom. That means that sometimes, the resulting recordings might have some unwanted echo/reverb effects that couldn’t be eliminated at the source. While it’s simple enough to add echo/reverb to a recording afterwards, it’s not always easy to take it away.

Accusonus has worked to solve the problem of unwanted echo/reverb with its new ERA-R dereverberation plugin:

Add clarity to your mixes, clean up your dialogue tracks and tighten up your music performances. ERA-R is the only plugin that attenuates or removes excessive reverberation with a single knob. Based on the accusonus multi-patented audio restoration technology, ERA-R automatically estimates the reverberation profile and offers the means to adjust the reverberation amount in a streamlined interface.

The ERA-R plugin is compatible with most modern versions of macOS and Windows. Accusonus has tested the plugin with Ableton Live 9.7, Apple Logic Pro X 10.2, Steinberg Cubase 7.5 (64-bit only), Avid Pro Tools 11.3 and 12.5, Cockos Reaper 5.32, Presonus Studio One 3.0, ImageLine FL Studio 12.0, and Audacity 2.1.2. ERA-R is currently available at an intro price of $39. ERA-R is also available as part of a few bundle offers from Accusonus that vary in price.
