What sonible prime:vocal is
sonible prime:vocal uses AI developed for vocal audio to clean and enhance vocal recordings, including takes with unwanted noise or room reverberation. Its cleanup tools address sibilants, plosives, buzzing, mechanical noise, and reverberant reflections. Controls for dynamics, average loudness, and spectral balance let users shape the processed audio. The software is available as a standalone application for loading, processing, and exporting recordings. ARA plug-ins for DAWs are available in Beta, with guides for Studio One, Cubase, Reaper, and Logic Pro. ARA analysis processes the full audio clip, including parts trimmed or cropped in a DAW, and unanalyzed portions cannot be played back until processing is complete. The listed price is $99, paid once; the plan states $99.00, was $179.00. It supports Windows 10 (64 bit) or macOS 11+, sample rates from 44.1 kHz to 192 kHz, at least 16 GB RAM, OpenGL 3.2+, and an Intel Core i5 or Apple Silicon CPU. Internet access is needed during the trial and initial license activation, but not after successful activation.
