Differences between versions

Forcaster wrote on 4/16/2021, 12:40 AM

I have a small question. I am looking at picking up an upgrade of the Sound Forge audio. I was looking at possibly the suite. I noticed that the vinyl restoration and recording along with the audio restoration tools are not available on the Pro or the Suite versions. Is there a better alternative in the Pro and Suite versions???? I am looking at digitizing some vinyl along with some other things as to why I was looking in to the higher end versions and I do not want to have to get both. Also, in conjunction with the vinyl recording, would the Audio Cleaning Lab be a good choice???? I do not want to get too much if I do not need it. Thanks :)

@Forcaster, peruse the Sound Forge comparison webpage .
Sound Forge Pro includes iZotopes's RX Elements restoration suite as well as the legacy NR-2.0 noise reduction package suite. The Sound Forge Pro Suite includes SpectraLayers Pro 7, which is beyond belief, however the learning curve maybe a little steep. You could also consider an alternate purchase of iZotopes's RX Standard or Advanced, which are amazing as well, but pricey.
Cleaning Lab is a lower-cost option I am not familiar with. You could try the trial version I guess.

@Forcaster

Audio Cleaning Lab I suggested to another user in the forums as he wanted to remove rumble and hiss noise digitising vinyl, he tried it out and was delighted.

So it's something to look at.

Thanks a bunch :)

I will scope them out :) I am really glad for the trials that are offered :) That way I can see what is best. I just needed a little clarity. I also have some other audio projects that I plan on doing so I am going to be getting something that I can expand into :)

Thanks again! :)
