Clarity Vx DeReverb and others

[Max Arwood]

I am auditioning Clarity Vx DeReverb and Clarity Vx DeReverb Pro because of the great sounding demos. It works pretty good, but I am unable to get anywhere CLOSE to the amount of reduction I heard on the demos! Has anyone else tested Clarity Vx DeReverb or pro? 

Also Testing Acon Deverberate and Accentize DeRoom Pro2. Any ideas about these?

I already have

RX 10 Deverb (Below Average)

Zynaptiq UNVEIL (Good but hard to tweek and over priced)

SPL De-Verb Plus (only good for a small amount of reduction - good for the price when on sale)

I also have couple of freebies non worth mentioning.

I have a large collection of live recordings. Many have quite a bit of early room reflections, and some have huge amounts of reverb.

Trying to decide if any of these work better or are worth adding to what I have.

TIA

I was lucky enough to get Sonible proximityEQ+ as a freebie. It works pretty well for reverb and room ambience removal, lets you apply the effect to only whatever frequencies you choose.

Oh I got it free too. Didn’t know you could use it for reverb removal. I’ll try it tonight. Thanks for the info!!

The best results in removing reverb that I was able to achieve in terms of quality was thanks to this free AI standalone app, called Ultimate Vocal Remover GUI:

direct link to win setup file:
https://github.com/Anjok07/ultimatevocalremovergui/releases/download/v5.6/UVR_v5.6.0_setup.exe

It's primary purpose is to remove/separate vocals from audio (as well as stem separation to some extent), but it also has a great external AI model for reverb removal/isolation, to be found here:

It's not perfect, but still much better than all the other stuff I've tried so far (incl. Accentize, Acon, Izotope, Steinberg, SPL, Sonible, Zynaptiq, etc.).

Pros:
1. Capable of removing (in most cases) reverb from both music and spoken audio, and not just reducing it like all the other ones.
2. No significant artifacts left behind.
3. Free to download and use, installs and works completely offline (you may download additional models on another machine and place them in appropriate folders manually).

Cons:
1. No plugin version, standalone only.
2. Very slow processing speed on CPU, decent on GPU.
3. No audio editing capabilities, can only process whole files.

Thanks a bunch!  I’ll download it today.
