What it is
Algorithmix Sound Rescue is standalone audio-restoration software for Windows and macOS. It is designed to clean recordings from vinyl, shellac records, and cassette tapes before transfer to CD or DVD. DeScratcher and DeNoiser address transient noise, hiss, hum, rumble, and buzz, while other tools handle DC-offset removal, normalization, bass and treble filtering, enhancement, distortion softening, and drop-out masking. Sound Rescue can automatically select tracks, process and normalize them, split the recording, and create a track list for a CD application. It accepts 44.1 kHz, 16-bit Red Book-compatible WAV files. Listed requirements include 10 MB of free disk space, a 16-bit/44.1 kHz sound card, and a 1024×768 display with 16-bit color. Supported Windows systems listed are Windows 2000 SP4, XP SP2, Vista, and Windows 7. A fully functional 14-day trial requires online activation; purchases within 72 hours receive a 25% discount. Pricing is from €2,092, with the full version listed at $79.90, paid once.
