If you haven’t had the pleasure of looking at recorded audio through iZotope RX’s advanced multi-resolution spectrogram display, you might think you’re looking at UFOs, declassified sonar imaging, or laser beams. But all of the pictures above are audio—(upper left to lower right) an arpeggiated synth, a slowly echoing pad sound, a drum loop filter sweep, and a simple sine wave. iZotope RX can show you incredible detail in your music and audio, which is not just great for analyzing sound, it can also be fascinating to look at.

iZotope has announced iZotope RX audio restoration plug-ins, featuring the essential tools for cleaning and restoring audio.
