Sound Radix has recently released Auto-Align 2.1, a cutting-edge audio alignment tool that promises to enhance the audio production process by offering a higher degree of precision and effectiveness.
Auto-Align 2.1 enhances the sound quality of microphones by removing comb-filtering, reducing the blurring of transients, and optimizing the phase spectrum. This latest version also improves the alignment process by speeding it up, introducing a new module for spectral phase correction, refining the algorithm, and providing a 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 in one go. This innovative feature saves you precious time and guarantees that your audio is accurately aligned in terms of timing and phase, leading to better clarity, size, and stereo image.
The Spectral Phase Optimization feature in Auto-Align 2.1 helps to fix phase shifts that may occur within certain frequency ranges. These phase shifts can cause the audio signal to sound less coherent and less rich. When filters are used during recording, different frequency bands may experience different phase shifts, resulting in a distorted and unclear sound. With Spectral Phase Optimization, these phase shifts are automatically detected and corrected, ensuring that your audio is perfectly aligned and sounds its best.
The updated edition of the software has enhancements in its main algorithm, the option to enable or disable group time alignment, the ability to optimize spectral phase on a track basis, four preset locations for convenient comparison of various configurations, and the option to export and import alignment settings to make the workflow smoother across different projects.
Auto-Align 2.1 has received positive feedback from experts in the industry. Greg Wurth, a renowned producer, mixer, and engineer who has won multiple platinum awards, expresses his amazement at what Auto-Align 2 can do for drums, bass, or guitar. Similarly, Darrell Thorp, a 10-time GRAMMY-winning engineer, includes Auto-Align 2 in his drum plug-in chain for every new mix or song he begins.
The Auto-Align 2.1 software can currently be purchased for $199. It can be used on macOS 10.9 or newer, as long as you have a 64-bit Intel CPU or Apple Silicon. For Windows users, it requires a 64-bit Intel or AMD CPU and Windows 10 or a more recent version. The software can be used as a plugin in various formats, including AAX, Audio Unit, VST3, and ARA2.
