  • Page 3: Overview

    1. Overview Introduction Sound Laundry™ TerraTec Edition is a powerful tool for cleaning up problematic and historic recordings directly on your PC. It helps you remove or significantly reduce unwanted audio, maintaining authentic sound with almost no degradation of its original quality.
  • Page 4: Getting Started

    2. Getting Started Installation Sound Laundry™ TerraTec Edition is delivered on a CD configured for automatic installation. If the AutoStarter application does not start automatically, simply double-click autorun.exe (to be found within the root directory of the CD) and follow the on-screen instructions.

    3. Playback Section The Playback Section is placed in the lower part of the Sound Laundry™ TerraTec Edition window. You can load a WAV file for processing, start and stop playback, as well as jump to the desired position in the WAV file by moving the cursor in the waveform display.
  • Page 6: Processing Section

    Since the CPU requirement of the Sound Laundry™ TerraTec Edition is very low (about 30% on a 300 MHz PentiumII for a 16 bit, stereo, 44.1kHz .WAV file) you can optimize all the parameters while listening to the processing in real-time.

    Application Tips. Please note that the difference feature works for both Descratcher and Denoiser simultaneously. Therefore if you want to concentrate only on Descratcher performance, leave both Denoiser faders (threshold and reduction) at zero. Algorithmix® Sound Laundry™ TerraTec Edition (English)
  • Page 8: Denoiser

    If noticeable artifacts in the form of so-called singing or robot- like sounds appear (time aliasing phenomenon), decreasing the reduction parameter and increasing the threshold level (up to about 30 dB above the background noise) usually helps. Algorithmix® Sound Laundry™ TerraTec Edition (English)

    9. A recommended tool that significantly helps to adjust the Denoiser parameters is the Analyzer. It allows for following the denoising process, especially the influence of the noise profile and parameters. Algorithmix® Sound Laundry™ TerraTec Edition (English)
  • Page 10 Important Remark: The Sound Laundry™ TerraTec Edition is a very fast and very effective tool. You will be amazed by how dramatically the audio quality of old records and problematic audio files can be improved. But please do not expect miracles if you process material with long gaps or jumps.
