Introducing Auto-Align 2.1: The Ultimate Audio Alignment Tool for Refinement and Efficiency in Production

  • by

This is your current location. Auto-Align 2.1 is a software developed by Sound Radix.

Sound Radix has released Auto-Align 2.1, a tool that aims to enhance and streamline the audio production process by providing advanced audio alignment capabilities.

Auto-Align 2.1 enhances audio quality by removing comb-filtering, reducing the blurring of transients, and optimizing the phase of each microphone. This ensures that the true and distinct sound captured by the microphones is preserved. The latest version offers a faster alignment process, introduces a new module for spectral phase correction, improves the algorithm, and provides a more user-friendly interface.

The updated Auto-Align software aims to make your work process more efficient. By simply clicking once, Auto-Align 2.1 can align all your microphones simultaneously. This innovative feature saves you precious time and guarantees that your audio is perfectly aligned in terms of timing and phase, leading to enhanced clarity, size, and stereo image.

The Spectral Phase Optimization feature in Auto-Align 2.1 is designed to fix phase shifts that may happen within certain frequency ranges, resulting in an audio signal that sounds more unified and enhanced. When filters are applied during recording, different frequency bands may encounter different phase shifts, which can cause the sound to become distorted and unclear. By automatically detecting and rectifying these phase shifts, Spectral Phase Optimization ensures that your audio is perfectly aligned and sounding its best.

The updated version of the software also comes with enhancements to its core algorithm, the option to turn on or off group time alignment, the ability to optimize spectral phase on a track basis, four preset locations to easily compare different configurations, and the feature to export/import alignment settings to make the workflow more efficient across multiple projects.

Auto-Align 2.1 has received positive feedback from experts in the industry. Greg Wurth, a highly acclaimed producer/mixer/engineer who has won multiple platinum awards, expresses his astonishment at the capabilities of Auto-Align 2 on drums, bass, or guitar. Additionally, Darrell Thorp, a GRAMMY-winning engineer ten times over, includes Auto-Align 2 in his drum plug-in chain for every new mix or song he begins, highlighting its importance in his workflow.

You can now purchase Auto-Align 2.1 for $199. This software works with macOS 10.9 or newer and requires a 64-bit Intel CPU or Apple Silicon. For Windows users, it is compatible with a 64-bit Intel or AMD CPU and Windows 10 or newer. Auto-Align 2.1 is available in plug-in formats such as AAX, Audio Unit, VST3, and ARA2.
