../ Sound Soap 2 Debuts From Bias Inc.Bias Inc. has announced Sound Soap 2, a new version of their entry-level audio restoration software for $99.The easy-to-use program has a very elegant interface and is meant to reduce noise, clicks, crackles from vinyl records, hums, rumble and electrical interference that can creep into your audio. The very economical program is the quintessential companion to anyone transferring old vinyl recordings to CD or using digital video editing software.
Sound Soap 2 can work as a stand-alone application, or as a fully integrated plug-in with any compatible RTAS, VST DirectX or Audio Units host program. The intuitive program has a Learn Noise button that samples a section of unwanted noise and then eliminates it effortlessly. Additional controls include an Enhance slider and a Preserve Voice button to refine the automatic noise reduction feature. Bias astutely included a Noise Only mode so that you can listen to exactly what Sound Soap 2 is eliminating to fine tune the noise reduction before you apply the processing. Nice. If you perform any type of noise reduction to your digital audio files, then Sound Soap 2 is a steal for $99 dollars. The Future: For version 3, we'd love to see 1) a revamped visual metaphor for sound reduction that further defines audio noise, clicks and hums, 2) some type of basic EQ, and 3) Normalization.
