Product Detail
Save your tracks with Waves Z-Noise, an advanced noise reduction tool designed for music. Its transient preservation technology efficiently removes noise from musical material, maintaining the audio's sonic quality. Whether it's mic preamp hiss, hum, or computer noise picked up by instruments, Z-Noise is the must - have solution for all recording studios. Even when you can't isolate noisy audio sections, it can extract a noise profile and uses an Adaptive mode to handle changing noise. It's your go - to option for enhancing sonic purity. Features include broadband processing to fix frequency problems, pushing the noise floor lower, preventing transient 'smearing', Adaptive mode for changing noise profiles, precise noise shaping with 5 - band EQ, optimized reduction for time or frequency resolution, easy tweaking by monitoring removed noise, great for reducing guitar noise before high - gain amps, and excellent at retaining dynamics and low - frequency accuracy.
Using Waves Z - Noise is quite straightforward. First, load your audio track into your recording software where Z - Noise is installed. If you can isolate a section of just the noise, select it and let Z - Noise analyze the noise profile. If not, it can still extract the profile automatically. Once the profile is set, you can start adjusting the reduction settings. Use the 5 - band EQ to shape the noise profile precisely according to your needs. The Adaptive mode is great when the noise changes over time, so keep it on in such situations. When adjusting the reduction, watch the monitor to see what's being removed. As for the pre - emphasis and de - emphasis settings, use them to prevent transient 'smearing'. When using it for guitar noise before high - gain amps, start with mild reduction and then gradually increase it until you get the desired sound. For maintenance, make sure your software is always up - to - date. Also, keep your computer in good condition as a stable system ensures the best performance of Z - Noise. And don't forget to regularly back up your audio projects to avoid any data loss.
