CS9-RET

AI-Powered Spectral Audio Repair
Uses advanced AI and machine learning to identify, isolate, and remove unwanted sounds from recordings with exceptional precision.

Spectral Editing Technology
Displays audio visually across time, frequency, and amplitude, allowing engineers to target specific sounds without affecting the surrounding audio.

Sound Matching and Detection
Learns a selected unwanted sound and automatically locates similar occurrences throughout a recording, dramatically speeding up cleanup workflows.

Interpolate Mode
Removes unwanted sounds and reconstructs the missing audio using information from surrounding clean material, producing natural-sounding repairs.

Patch Mode
Replaces damaged or unwanted audio by inserting clean audio from another location within the recording.

Copy Mode
Copies selected audio content to a new location, enabling seamless replacement and creative restoration tasks.

Erase Mode
Removes unwanted sounds and automatically generates replacement background ambience to maintain a natural result.

Volume Mode
Boosts or attenuates specific sounds while independently controlling the surrounding audio, making it easy to highlight or suppress targeted events.

Repair Mode
Uses AI-based processing to reduce or eliminate prominent sounds while preserving lower-level ambience and background detail.

Cleanse Mode
Separates wanted audio from complex unwanted noise, making difficult restoration tasks faster and more effective.

Revert Mode
Restores selected regions back to their original state without affecting edits elsewhere in the project.

Targeted Noise Removal
Removes coughs, squeaky chairs, page turns, creaks, horns, wind noise, record scuffs, and many other intrusive sounds.

Precision Time-and-Frequency Editing
Targets audio problems in both time and frequency domains, minimizing impact on the desired signal.

Audio Restoration and Archiving
Ideal for restoring damaged recordings, preserving historical archives, and improving legacy media.

Postproduction Workflow Enhancement
Accelerates dialogue cleanup, sound repair, and content preparation for film, television, and media production.

Forensic Audio Processing
Helps isolate, reveal, and improve important audio elements for investigative and evidential applications.

Podcast and Speech Cleanup
Removes distractions and improves intelligibility for spoken-word recordings and podcast production.

Multi-Format Compatibility
Available as AAX Native, AU, and VST3 plug-ins for integration with major professional audio workstations.

Perpetual License
Provides permanent ownership with no recurring subscription requirement.

Professional Studio Integration
Designed for high-end restoration, editing, and postproduction environments on both Windows and macOS systems.
