Quiet Art has announced the releases of version 5.0 of its flagship product, WaveRider, featuring Dialog Mode, bringing neural speech detection to automatic dialog leveling.
WaveRider v5.0, WaveRider TG v2.0 and LoudnessGracious v1.1 now tell dialog apart from breaths and background noise.
Dialog Mode distinguishes real speech from breaths, noise and room tone, so level rides are no longer ramped up in the gaps between lines. Dialog Mode doesn’t remove or alter noise.
Dialog Mode adds no latency to real-time riding.
The result is consistent dialog levels without the need for a manual cleanup.
WaveRider v5 is a complete overhaul of the original Pro Tools level-riding plugin. It now runs as AAX, VST and AU, with fader taper calibrations for Logic Pro, Nuendo, Cubase, Reaper, Studio Pro and DaVinci Resolve Fairlight, so one workflow carries across the major DAWs.
WaveRider TG v2 brings Dialog Mode to the plugin that writes its own automation on an internal volume parameter. It runs in AAX, VST and AU hosts.
LoudnessGracious, the AudioSuite plugin that normalizes clips to LKFS targets in Pro Tools, receives Dialog Mode in version 1.1.
