Aulio Studio vs Wave Arts Master Restoration Suite 6

Aulio Studio is a paid Mac app for cleaning audio and video recordings. It removes background noise, filler words, stutters, long silences, and room echo. Live A/B preview and an adjustable noise-reduction control let you compare and set processing before applying it. The app transcribes audio, allowing selected transcript text to export its matching clip, and the maker says transcription and filler removal support 99 languages. Effects include reverb, echo, warmth, loudness targets, and sound style profiles. It processes MP4 and MOV video and exports MP3, WAV, FLAC, M4A, and AIFF. Batch jobs can share settings and remain in history. Processing runs on the Mac, while anonymous diagnostics and analytics may be sent to the maker and Google Firebase. macOS 14 or later is required. Pricing starts at $9.99 a month, with a full-access 10-day trial and no free plan.

Wave Arts Master Restoration Suite 6 is a set of five plug-ins for cleaning up tape, vinyl, digital, and acoustic recordings. MR Noise 6 reduces broadband noise; MR Hum 6 combines hum and buzz removal with brickwall filtering and spectrum analysis; MR Click 6 targets clicks and crackle; and MR Gate 6 attenuates background noise in quiet sections. The fifth plug-in, MasterRestoration 6, provides an all-in-one option. The suite costs $99, paid once and has a fully functional 30-day demo. It runs on macOS 10.13 or later and Windows 7/8/10/11, in AU, VST3, and AAX formats on macOS and VST2, VST3, and AAX on Windows. Apple Silicon is supported natively in the listed Mac formats. These are not standalone applications: they require an audio plug-in host. Mac hosts must be 64-bit; Windows hosts may be 32-bit or 64-bit. Wave Arts or iLok licensing is available.
