New World Cup Horn Suppressor Enhances Transmissions for Denmark’s TV2
Hannover, July 3rd, 2018: We're happy to announce the immediate availability of the World Cup Horn Suppressor plug-in for the VST, AAX and AU formats on macOS and Windows.
The multi-channel plugin allows suppressing the droning sound of compressor horns, popular at the Russian soccer games, in real-time, leaving individual “honks” and other stadium ambience as well as commentary virtually untouched.
This is made possible using a technology known as source (signal) separation, a.k.a. de-mixing, where state-of-the-art artificial intelligence techniques are combined with precision filtering to “unbake the cake”, providing after-the-fact access to the different sounds that make up a mix. Zynaptiq is a leading developer and pioneer in this field.
Already in use at Denmark’s TV2 for their World Cup game transmissions, World Cup Horn Suppressor is available now to broadcasters that apply for a free 3-month license.
“We were getting complaints about the compressor horns being too dominant in the audio of our World Cup transmissions, and there really wasn’t a lot that could be done about that with traditional tools.” said Jens Lyd, sound engineer at TV2, Denmark. “So we contacted Zynaptiq – and within days, they provided an easy-to-use solution that quite simply completely fixed the issue for us.”
World Cup Horn Suppressor supports all common sampling rates from 44.1kHz to 192kHz depending on available CPU resources, mono, stereo, LCR, quad, 5.0, 5.1, 7.1 and multi-mono operation, as AAX native, AU, RTAS, VST 2.4 and VST 3, on Mac & Windows.
