CEDAR TOOLS
SOUND RESTORATION MODULES FOR PRO TOOLS SOFTWARE

The company released CEDAR Pro Tools software on the PC platform working for some of the software modules, workstations CEDAR Cambridge and CEDAR Retouch software. Clean sound modules nameD CEDAR Tools are available as plug-ins - AudioSuite plug-ins. Currently available modules are: CEDAR Retouch, CEDAR CEDAR Auto Dehiss and Declip

CEDAR Retouch

Until now audio restoration and speech enhancement systems were limited to a small, specific group of interference, which could deal with.

CEDAR Retouch thanks to the huge advances in sound analysis technology, allows to find and eliminate the interference as varied as coughs, scratches on the old LPs, moving a chair, turning pages of a book or the sounds of pushing the pedals of the piano. And even the sound of the horn.

Adapted for Pro Tools software Retouch v3 has all the capabilities of its original version. Revolutionizing the way of engineers work, gives them new opportunities to improve the quality of recordings or purification of libraries of sounds and archival records.

CEDAR Auto Dehiss

"The first so-called 'automatic' dehisser that works! And it really does..."

Auto Dehiss embodies a more advanced algorithm than any previous dehisser. It offers significantly improved performance and has a unique "Auto" mode that enables the software to determine the broadband noise content, removing this without the introduction of unwanted side-effects or artefacts.

We have even retained a manual mode that allows you to control all parameters and fine-tune the noise reduction.

CEDAR Declip

Declip is a genuine declipping algorithm that allows you to identify and remove most instances of clipping in a single real-time pass. It does so by presenting a visual indication of the density of sample values in the signal. If the Signal Analysis window displays 'hard' vertical edges, this demonstrates that the signal has been clipped at that sample value. It is then simple to remove the offending samples and reconstruct the signal. If you wish to inspect a region of the display more closely, you can use zoom to increase the resolution, allowing you to see finer detail within the signal. Furthermore, Declip offers multiple display modes that help you to analyse the audio correctly.

Two processing modes are provided, and these allow you to choose between an algorithm optimised for light clipping, and one optimised for heavy amounts of clipping. This ensures that you remove the problem without causing damage to the genuine signal.
