Thank you for your review! I am a brand new audio editor as I am making short instructional videos doing all the writing, recording audio, editing audio, recording video to the audio, then editing the video matched up with the audio and saving. I use Adobe Audition and Premiere Pro. This is THE FIRST PLUGIN I've ever purchased. I purchased it just a few days ago and finally had the time today to sit down and play with all of the RX11 Elements options. I was very surprised that when I followed the (not very good) video on the izotope website - it didn't give instructions, but more of an example of someone running it assuming we've all done this before, only to find out that when I clicked on 'learn' it said 'waiting for audio' when I'd already selected Control + A. So I played it and it was extremely distorted and choppy for my 3 minute video. I assumed it was user error since I am new. So then I closed out the repair assistant and sure enough, my audio was fine. That's when I did a search to find out what I was doing wrong and came across your video. As relieving as it is to know that I didn't do anything wrong, I am very disappointed that I may have wasted my money on my tight budget just starting out this project, that I cannot use this option. I don't understand a lot of the tone and sound settings, so I was really looking forward to this assistant making suggestions. I simply cannot use it either. 😞
I'm sorry that experience is what led to finding this video. My wife tried using Supertone Clear as a plugin in Premiere to clean up some audio the other day and she had the same exact experience. I'm wondering if that is more of a Premiere issue than an Izotope one. Perhaps it's a mix of both. Or maybe Premiere can't handle more powerful plugins like these.
Are you working with podcasts or something else? How many dialog tracks do you tend to have? What are you looking to achieve with this tool? Noise and reverb reduction? EQ? Compression?
Thank you so much for this review. I would have spent forever trying to figure out why this doesn’t work. 😮
I'm glad it helped.
Thank you for your review!

No problem.
What is your recommendation for someone with no knowledge of audio editing who wants a simple tool?
Are you working with podcasts or something else? How many dialog tracks do you tend to have?
