iZotope RX7 and RX Post Production Suite 3 now available
5,0 / 5,0 | 
iZotope, Inc. released updates to its RX family of audio repair and enhancement software. The seventh generation of RX is spread across RX 7 Advanced and the RX Post Production Suite, which focus on the needs of audio post professionals, while RX 7 Standard and RX Elements solve common (and uncommon) audio issues faced by musicians.
The updates in version 7 are said to represent the latest advances in iZotope’s assistive audio technology for a sped-up workflow. Some of the highlights in RX7 Standard include:
Repair Assistant – An intelligent repair tool which analyzes audio to detect noise, clipping, clicks, and more, then offers three processing suggestions at three different intensities.
Music Rebalance – Using an algorithm trained with machine learning, Music Rebalance performs source separation by intelligently identifying vocals, bass, percussion, and other instruments. Users can then individually enhance elements of a stereo audio track, making it possible to adjust a mix without multitracks.
Remove/Isolate Vocals – Create instrumental versions of songs by removing the vocal elements, or isolate the vocal to prepare a remix without access to individual tracks or stems.
RX Elements has also been updated with a streamlined version of Repair Assistant, offering a single repair suggestion with a choice of three intensity levels.

RX 7 Advanced Features
Compared to RX7 Standard, RX7 Advanced presents deeper control over dialogue alongside workflow enhancements. Some of the highlights include:
Dialogue Contour – reshape the intonation of dialogue to rescue or improve a performance, powered by pitch correction that is tailored to speech and designed to adjust the inflection of words within a phrase.
Dialogue De-reverb – reduce or remove unwanted reverb from dialogue clips using an algorithm trained with machine learning and optimized to separate spoken dialogue from reverberant signal content.
Pro Tools AudioSuite plug-ins – save time when fixing production audio by staying within Pro Tools and using new AudioSuite plug-ins to access features like De-Rustle and Dialogue Isolate.
Multi-channel support – tackle audio issues that appear in any or every surround channel up to Dolby Atmos 7.1.2.

Insight 2 has been completely overhauled in this regard, says iZotope. Some of the new features include:
New Intelligibility Meter – get a clearer picture of how an audience will experience the dialogue with a DSP that measures the intelligibility of dialogue compared to the rest of the mix, ensuring that the dialogue level can be clearly heard in different listening environments.
A new look – resize and customize the new user interface, redesigned to be easier to read at a glance
Multichannel support – analyze audio in surround sound up to Dolby Atmos 7.1.2.
Global loudness standard support – set loudness targets for latest standards including EBU R128, BS.1770-1, BS.1770-2/3/4, ATSC A/85, and OP-59.
