833 NoiseAssist (4 Instances)

Real-Time Background Noise Suppression: Eliminates unwanted ambient sounds such as traffic, air conditioning, or generator hum instantly with ultra-low 1 ms latency, perfect for live or fast-turnaround production.

4 Independent Instances: Run NoiseAssist on up to four channels or mix buses in any combination (e.g., 4 ISO inputs, 2 buses + 2 inputs). Offers more flexibility for multi-person dialog setups, interviews, or complex mixes.

Optimized for Voice Clarity: Designed specifically for dialog-focused production, NoiseAssist uses a proprietary algorithm to maintain the natural sound of speech while suppressing noise and reverberation.

No Learning Required: Starts working as soon as it's enabled-no need for manual training or calibration. Automatically adapts to new noise environments in 5"10 seconds.

User-Adjustable Suppression Level: Fine-tune the suppression strength between 1 dB to 20 dB (default is 6 dB), allowing subtle cleanup or heavy noise reduction depending on the application.

Fully Compatible with the 833: Requires firmware version 7.20 or later. Integrated seamlessly into the 833's routing and channel architecture.

Flexible Routing & Mix Options: Use on isolated inputs, buses, or both. Capture cleaned and raw versions simultaneously via parallel routing.

Use with Automixers: Compatible with MixAssist and Dugan Automixer-ideal to clean up individual mics with NoiseAssist before mixing them down with automix.

Combine with EQ & Filters: Works alongside the 833's pre-fade EQ and low-cut filters. Tune mics as needed without impacting NoiseAssist's performance.

Upgrade Path Supported: If you already own the 2-instance version, you only pay the difference to upgrade to 4 instances. Discounts are automatically applied based on serial number.

Transparent Sound Performance: High-resolution 48 kHz / 24-bit or 32-bit float processing ensures audio stays natural and full-spectrum, with 74 dB SNR and 120 dB SPL support.

Non-Transferable License: Tied to the specific 833 serial number. Cannot be transferred between units.

Professional Workflow Support: Ideal for use in live streaming, ENG, documentary, broadcast, reality TV, and dialog recording in noisy locations-especially when post-processing is limited or unavailable.
