Breath control on RX is not doing anything at all?

I am new to this so i am not sure if i am doing anything wrong. I select the part of the song with a heavy inhale sound. I select the mode, for example - heavy breath supression. I click preview, and... nothing changes. Even if i do the render, nothing changes as well. Why?

Looking for some advice on trying to rescue some audio.

Looking for some advice on trying to rescue some audio.

Full disclosure: I'm usually an LX/video guy who's wandered into the dark arts of sound while helping out at my daughter's dance and theatre school.

We recently put on our end-of-term showcase. I managed to get the live sound to a point where I was reasonably happy with it, but I completely messed up the audio feed into our ATEM. As a result, most of what was recorded came from the overhead mics rather than the handheld vocal mics.

I'd really like to improve the recording for the performers. They're a talented group who put a huge amount of work into the showcase, so even if I can't make it perfect, I'd love to make it as listenable as possible.

I've got access to:

  • Adobe Audition
  • Adobe Premiere Pro
  • iZotope RX 12 Standard
  • DaVinci Resolve (Free)

I'm realistic enough to know this isn't going to become a studio-quality recording, but I'd really appreciate any advice on where to start. Are there particular filters, effects, or workflows I should be looking at to get the best possible result from what I have?

Here's a sample WAV file:

Any tips or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

iZotope (NI) nagging users to turn on data collection

I just caught iZotope (so Native Instruments, I guess) doing some real gross dark pattern shit.

So, I tend to keep analytics/data collection off for as many plug-ins as possible. After recently updating my iZotope plug-ins, I noticed I was getting re-prompted with the "Help us improve your experience" dialog when loading projects, multiple times per week. At first I thought it was a bug, like maybe some weird state got saved with a project.

Then I noticed it was doing it in fresh projects too.

It turns out that when you hit "don't share", it writes a timestamp to the registry, and if it's been more than ~5 days since the last nag, it will re-prompt you to opt-in. It's completely deliberate.

A solution seems to be to set the value of HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\iZotope LastChangedOptInDaysSinceEpoch to 65535.

If you save this as fix.reg and run it, it will patch it:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\iZotope]
"EnableAnalytics"=dword:00000000
"LastChangedOptInDaysSinceEpoch"=dword:0000ffff

Figured I'd share this for anyone else who's been annoyed by this.

Questions about Dialogue Isolate, De-Reverb and De-Noisers

Hello, I have some questions regarding certain modules on RX and was hoping to get some help/feedback from other users or even from the staff themselves.

Firstly, because there is Dialogue Isolate, which combines de-noise and de-reverb, while also having modules like De-Reverb, Voice De-Noise and Spectral De-Noise, I wanted to know if using De-Reverb and Spectral De-Noise/Voice De-Noise would give me better results by using specialized modules for each task instead of a two-in-one module like Dialogue Isolate. This one works with a sensitivity slider and 2 sliders for noise and reverb, so it doesn't seem to have the same depth in terms of settings and customization.

Secondly, if I were to use the individual modules instead of Dialogue Isolate, would Spectral De-Noise be better than Voice De-Noise for de-noising a spoken word/dialogue recording? It seems to be a more in-depth version of Voice De-Noise. Also, which order of operation would be better, De-Reverb and then De-Noise or viceversa?

That is all, any help or feedback is very appreciated!
