FIVE - 5 A New Ceiling For Audio Restoration
With
Diamond Cut Millennium, we offered the world's best audio restoration and enhancement
tools...still are today. So when we set out to improve this product, we set some
goals and met or exceeded each one. We wanted a faster product that was easier
to use , but also wanted new features that pushed the envelope for a product like
this. We also wanted to start dabbling in the audio editing market because there
are a whole lot of guys out there making too much money for the products they
provide. We'd basically like to eat their lunch. DC FIVE provides a digital fork
and knife for eating the lunch of those bloated expensive PC audio editors. We
think you'll like saving money.

DC
FIVE Includes all of the features below. We'll explain the newest greatest things
and also print the laundry list of current features for your information.
Easy DeClick and DeCrackle - One of the most significant changes with DC5 has
been in the EZ DeClick and DeCrackle. Not only has this process been made much
easier to manage, it also finds and repairs a much wider range of clicks and pops.
Fast Multi-tiered Editor - A brand new operating Mode for FIVE. This new
mode of operation allows instant editing with each level saved in the Fast Edit
History Window, so instant undo over numerous levels is easy. Cut/Copy/Paste instantly…regardless
of file length.
DeClipper - Very often, files will become “clipped”
if the input on the sound card is turned up too high and the sound card is overloaded.
The results are usually distortion and a waveform that is “flattened out”
on top. The new DeClipper helps remove this distortion and reform the waveforms.
Sample Rate Conversion - Quickly convert your files from one common sample
rate and bit depth to another.
LIVE Feed through Mode -Now you don’t
need to necessarily have your audio recorded to the hard drive to take advantage
of the numerous features of FIVE. Live mode allows you to run dirty audio in the
inputs of your sound card, set up your numerous filters on the screen and have
cleaned audio flow out the output of your sound card in real time.
Spectral
Subtraction Filter In Continuous Noise - An amazing new feature within the Continuous
Noise filter…very helpful in situations where you’re wading through
recordings that are loaded with lots of ambient noise.
Time Compression and Expansion (Stretch and Squish) - Now you can speed up or
slow down the speed of an audio file and keep the pitch constant.
.cue Sheet
Support for CD Burning - You can now generate a .cue sheet that is compatible
with many of today's most popular CD burning programs.
Wave file to MP3 Conversion
via popular encoders - Now, via the use of popular outboard encoders (Blade, Lame,
Ogg Vorbis, Xing), you can quickly and easily convert any wave file to MP3 format
from within the program.
Weighting Function added to Median Filter - This new function from within the
Median Filter allows you to control the Timbre of your wave file.
Chebyshev
response and 4th Order Slope added to Band Pass, High Pass, and Low Pass - These
filters display relatively steep roll-off characteristics, but, unlike the Butterworth
filters, have ripple in their pass-band.
Filter Sweeper - A novel new filter
which allows the user to apply varying degrees of notch, high and low pass filters
over time. This is perfect in situations where more filtering is needed at the
beginning of a file.
De-Esser with Variable Frequency Control to Dynamics
Processor - This special compression algorithm is tooled directly to remove hard
“s” sounds that occur in older and poorly recorded files.
Pencil
Wave Form Drawing - Now you can zoom to single sample resolution and manually
draw out clicks and pops that show up as spikes in the waveform.
Time Bracketed
Play Range - Allows you to audition a selected area or play from the cursor and
add a predetermined amount of space on each side. This is particularly useful
when trying to zero in on a problem area.
Timer Recording - Just like your VCR…you can set your software to begin recording
at a certain time and end recording later. This can be set to be a one time recording
or a daily recording.
Signal Triggered VOX Recording - You can now trigger
the software to begin recording automatically when a user determined level of
signal is sustained for a user determined length of time.
Distortion Analyzer
- New to the Spectrum Analyzer…measures the THD (Total Harmonic Distortion)
of any device.
Peak
Hold Added to VU Meters - Newly designed VU meters more closely resemble a high
end stereo system readout.
Dithering Options for Resolution Conversion - Both Save as and the Sample Rate
Conversion tool allow you to select from 3 different dithering options…Flat
Spectrum, Triangular High Pass, and Noise Shape 2.
AIFF to wave file Converter
- Simply open an AIFF file within the program and it’s instantly converted
to a wave file. You can now easily work on your favorite Mac files and then export
them back to their original format.
Drag and Drop File Support - Drag and
drop any audio file supported by the program and it opens and converts it automatically.
Export Playlists - Export your playlist in a standard text file so that it
can be used by numerous label making and CD writing programs.
Import/Export
Preset Files - Now you can share your favorite Presets with other users of the
Enhanced Audio family via the Internet.
Hundreds of New Factory Presets (Over
800 Total) - Always a great starting point. We’ve added a ton of new tools
to this version; we’ve also followed it up with an incredible amount of “factory”
presets to help get you in the ballpark.
New Keyboard Accelerators - We are
always searching for ways to make the product easier to navigate. The accelerators
just give you quick shortcuts to menu items.
Print Waveforms or any Screen
Shot - A simple Print Screen function has been added with notation capabilities.
Up to 192 kHz/24 bit Sampling Rate Support - Now all popular sample rates
and depths are supported.
Instant Channel Selection - Quickly and easily
audition Left, Right or Stereo…even during playback. Apply any filter to
either channel with one click of the mouse.
New Signal Generation Functions
- White, Pink and Brown noise generators added.
New Lock Markers Function
- Lock your markers in place so that you can’t accidentally move them while
working.
New Marker Naming Function - Name your markers with text labels.
New Selectable Fonts and Colors - Manage your working environment to please
your eyes.
New Windows WDM Support - Will support any sound card with up
to date WDM drivers in Win '98 SE, XP, 2000, and ME.
High Res Spectrum Analyzer
Added - Now capable of resolving frequency increments as small as 0.02 Hz.
New P+C-based ALC - Ideal for speech processing…focus all 4 bands of Punch
and Crunch on human speech frequencies.
Important
Note: As DC FIVE is a WDM-based product, you may experience some operational difficulties
if your sound card's drivers are not up to date. Please contact your sound card
manufacturer for driver information.
