1. Introduction
Waves X-Crackle reduces crackle sounds while preserving excellent audio
quality. X-Crackle is part of the Waves Restoration bundle, which restores vinyl
records and damaged recordings. X-Crackle and the other Restoration plug-ins
have a friendly interface that is easy to learn and use. X-Crackle has just two
parameters to adjust.

Crackles are low-level transients or small clicks and pops interspersed in the
audio. While clicks (removed with the Restoration Plug-in X-Click) are more
obvious and usually overpower the actual audio, crackles are more subtle,
damaging a couple of samples in the area in which they occur. This can add up
to a very annoying disturbance.
The Waves X-Crackle Plug-In effectively removes crackles from old vinyl and
shellac records. Unlike other noise-reduction systems, X-Crackle creates
virtually no audible artifacts if the correct settings are used.
For complete restoration of vinyl records we recommend using X-Crackle after
X-Click. These plug-ins can also be chained together (X-Click->X-Crackle) in a
single process.

X-Crackle employs the most recent psychoacoustic research and multilevel
decision algorithms to remove crackle while preserving the sonic clarity of the
source. It performs better than comparable DAW tools and as well or better than
more expensive, dedicated-hardware solutions. X-Crackle reduces noise with
the least possible damage to the source recording.
