1 Introduction
The Sonnox Restore suite is a collection of three plug-ins designed to clean the sound of
digital audio recordings that are damaged by
pops, clicks, or crackle
hum, buzzes and whines
noise
The tools are not just for restoring old material, but also for removing the clicks, pops,
buzzes and background noises that can sometimes accidentally occur in new recordings.
A great deal of time has been put into making the Sonnox Restore suite as intuitive as
possible in terms of providing excellent visual and graphical feedback. They also include
some innovative solutions not seen before in the restoration field, the intention being to
enable quick and accurate repair of a variety of spoiled recordings.
1.1 RestorationProcessingWorkflow
It is usual practice to use the DeClick process first, particularly if there are large
disturbances present that require repair. The optimal order for DeNoise and DeBuzz is
probably dependent on the programme material. If a loud buzz is dominating low-level
noise it would be sensible to remove the buzz first; on the other hand the presence of
significant noise might make it more difficult for the DeBuzz detector to lock on to a low
level buzz component.
