Complete software
Waves Video Sound Suite is a plugin suite designed for audio post-production for video and fast work in editing environments. Its goal is simple: to make a soundtrack cleaner, more intelligible, and more "professional" without slowing down the workflow. It is aimed at editors, content creators, podcasters, journalists, streamers, and video teams who need to deliver quickly while maintaining consistent sound quality from episode to episode.
The suite covers the most common needs encountered on voice-overs, interviews, recordings, and web videos: background noise reduction, dynamic control, intelligibility enhancement, sibilance attenuation, and adding realistic ambience. It is also perfectly suited to cleaning and improving podcasts derived from video recordings when the audio needs to become standalone content.
The suite is designed to integrate into major video editing and post-production software, with an efficiency-oriented approach: you hear your adjustments in real time, without having to render to validate a correction. This workflow is particularly useful when you need to quickly iterate on a voice, adjust a level on a sequence, or homogenize multiple sources (camera, lavalier mic, external recorder).
To achieve dialogue that "comes through" immediately, Waves Video Sound Suite provides the fundamental voice processing tools: 10-band equalization to remove problematic resonances and enhance presence, compression to stabilize dynamics (uneven voice, whispers, and peaks), and de-esser to reduce excessive sibilance. The result: clearer diction, better anchored to the image, and superior listening comfort on smartphones as well as speakers.
Real shoots often require compromises: ventilation, street noise, room reverb, camera noise. The suite includes a dedicated background noise reduction processing to improve message intelligibility. This is a major asset for interviews, reports, and "on-the-fly" content where intelligibility is paramount.
To add "punch" to a production and achieve a more competitive level, the suite offers a level maximization processing. It increases perceived energy and sonic density, useful for web videos, e-learning, trailers, or content intended for distribution platforms. The goal is to achieve a stronger and more consistent sound while maintaining a pleasant listening experience.
A video can seem "flat" if the voice is too dry or detached from the environment. With IR-L Reverb, you can add a coherent ambience and place the scene in a more believable acoustic space. Whether recreating a small room, a larger hall, or simply adding a subtle air around a voice, impulse reverb brings depth and a sense of realism without complicating your session.
Thanks to its real-time processing orientation, Waves Video Sound Suite is also suitable for live uses and continuous flow productions: streaming, webinars, live shows, or long session recordings. The idea is to maintain controlled, intelligible, and pleasant sound even when conditions vary (mic distance, multiple guests, scene changes).
