CEDAR RETOUCH™
The original, and best, Spectral Editor on the market

Meet CEDAR Retouch™
Spectral editing was introduced to the world in 2002 when CEDAR invented and patented the underlying technology and announced the first version of Retouch. It was a huge leap forward in sound processing technology.
Unlike conventional restoration tools, Retouch provides a wide range of spectral editing capabilities. This enables you to mark and process complex areas in its spectrogram using the types of tools commonly found in powerful photographic and image manipulation software. This makes it possible to identify all manner of sounds and noises which can then be manipulated using any of the processing tools at your disposal.







AI and Machine Learning
There are often occasions when you will encounter similar instances of unwanted sounds in a track, things such as hi-hat spill in a multi-track recording, over-excited sibilants and plosives in a vocal track, or even the repetitive noise caused by a piece of machinery in the background.
Traditionally, one would remove these sounds by identifying each event individually and then defining it manually prior to processing.
Retouch allows you to mark one of the offending sounds and then, using AI, will find all of the other instances within the recording. A threshold control allows you to bias its decision making toward including more or fewer possibilities so that you can find the level that includes everything that you want to remove but precludes events that seem similar but are actually wanted signal.
The increase in productivity is absolutely remarkable.

In short...
With its enhanced capabilities, Retouch stands alone as the spectral editor of choice for mastering studios, mix suites, post houses, forensic laboratories, and anyone else who needs to be able to identify, isolate and manipulate individual sounds within an audio file.
When all else fails... Retouch gives you complete control.
