Yes it exists.
I am using it right now.
It is sweet.
I am yelling at my boss to buy it (I'm just using the 30day demo)
This stuff absolutely ROCKS.

way better than the waves restoration plugins...much more transparent...

Although, I don't really like how it interfaces with PT (as of yet anyway...it's growing on me as i get used to it). I'd been using NoNoise in Sonic Studio HD for about two years and loved it. When the studio I work for switched over to PT for editing I was nervous because there wasn't any good noise removal software for PT available. When Sonic NoNoise came out I think I was pretty much the first person to buy it! LOL

Anyway, it seems to only work within your selection. NoNoise in Sonic usually looked at the audio around the area you selected, and then tried to figure out what the audio would have done if there were no click in the selected area. I've found that if I select too small a selection in PT it won't work well and if i select too large a selection it won't work well. This makes me think that Sonic for PT only looks at the selected area and not the contiguous audio to the selection as well. In SonicStudio you never had to worry about this..you just selected an area and it would usually look and fix the clicks inside the selection and sometime just outside the selected area too (if it found any).

After you hit process in PT it then cuts the selection and turns it into its own region. a lot of the time I can hear a click when it passes the edit points of this new region so then manually crossfading is needed.

The other day it freaked out on me too...I was using manual declicker...and after a while, anything I would decrackle would just be all fullscale noise on the positive slope (no negitive slope). So I restarted PT and it was back to normal.

Honestly, I use NoNoise just about everyday and frequently I'm using it all day long. I've tried Waves, and Arboretum and a few others...but none are as transparent and powerful as NoNoise. Period! Once you learn how to use it and how to correctly set all the parameters, there is almost nothing out there that can compare. Actually, I've heard good things about Cedar too, but haven't had the chance to check them out yet. From what I've heard they are the only ones that are on par with Sonic's NoNoise. Unfortunately I believe they only work with Sadie and there is no PT plugin available.

Hope this helps.

I only see a Windows demo on Digi site.

Is it possible to find a Mac version?

There is a Cedar for PT (DSN 2000) which is said to be outstanding, but it's 3X more $$$ than No-Noise. I think we're going to get No-Noise.

The DSN 2000 isn't a plug in-It's a hardware box that is controlled via a USB interface that opens as a plug-In. It's awesome, we have one of those too. However, it's application is different than the No-Noise stuff-there isn't any decrackle, interpolation, eq.

Is there a chance of an Audiosuite demo (I dunno, preview mode only perhaps?) for us lesser mortals without an HD rig?

Cheers,

Joris
