I agree fully. I also have Acoustica from Acon Digital and Spectral Layers. The last one will be updated in a week, so will be interesting to see their improvements.
There is no shortage of options these days for dialog clean up tools, both as plugins or standalone apps. I may have to check out the new version of SpectraLayers when it’s released.
Great video! Sad but true... Izotope were my go to for post production dialogue but I'm letting them go. The 'loyalty price' was double what it was from the other years. Which is very cynical, imo.
Thanks. Annual upgrades like this only benefit the company. The focus turns into shipping new features instead of improving existing features and taking time to develop solid new features.
My feeling is they missed their Fall 2023 release trying to get Dialog Isolate to work well enough as a plugin they could release it. Or maybe making it work in Repair Assistant.
I’m not sure why I have it in my head that previous upgrades for RX Advanced were $299.
I found a couple of scenarios where RX11 DI was able to denoise quite a bit better than my other tools. I did not use the de-reverb. After I offline process with it I then move to logic for my standard workflow. Also, RX11 editor is far more stable than 10 was for me. I do agree that it’s not optimal if you make a mistake and want to change something. If they add native M support for the logic/rx duo setup it will be golden for me (useless in Rosetta mode).
That is the thing with noise and reverb reduction tools, there's always situations where one will out perform another. It's why I recommend having multiple options available because there isn't one that excels at everything you can throw at it.
What sorts of stability issues were you having with RX10's editor? I'm surprised to hear that RX needs to run in Rosetta mode if used within Logic. I would have figured all the bigger name developers were native by now. That shows how much RX work I do when using Logic.
@@jesse.mccune it’s Logic that has to run in Rosetta if you want to use the spectral editor ARA. So, totally useless for now. Update coming this summer though they say. As far as stability, RX10 would crash regularly for me when making rapid edits - so, when running through and doing spot repairs very quickly, it would crash and just disappear. It recovers fine when you reopen it (nothing gets lost), but breaks my flow as I have to figure out where I was, etc. RX11 completely fixed this.
@laez That makes sense. It sounds like the RX10 editor had some bugs, but instead of fixing them in the current version, they make you upgrade to the new version for the bug fixes. Either way, I'm glad your issues have been sorted out. There's nothing worse than software that crashes while you're editing. I use Hindenburg and the new version has been extremely buggy and I spent years asking them to simply store the playhead location when we save and during autosave, so when we re-open a project we don't have to try to remember where we were. They finally implemented that a few months ago and it's been so nice. Such a simple, standard feature in DAWs, but they couldn't seem to understand why it was important.
@@jesse.mccune oh wow yeah totally agree. Yeah, I do wish they fixed the stability in 10 - seems like a flaw in their versioning - they should back update older versions with stability fixes, shouldn’t be behind a paywall.
@laez Sadly, this seems to be par for the course when companies switch to an annual release cycle. As soon as they release they are focused on next year's release which will address some of the issues with the current release. For example, I can't see Izotope updating the CPU efficiency of Dialog Isolate or Repair Assistant in RX 11, but it will be something they use to promote RX 13.
I got better results (less artifacts) with RX 11 repair assistant then with dialogue isolate.
If you did, it’s simply a matter of settings because the Repair Assistant is using Dialog Isolate under the hood. If you have RX Advanced you can open up the Repair Assistant’s module chain and see the settings it used.
Can I ask you what plugins are you using to denoise and dereverb dialogue.
I primarily use Supertone Clear, Accentize dxRevive Pro and Cedar Audio VoicEx. Check out my video on Dialog Isolate to hear them compared to the new Dialog Isolate.
