NoiseWorks Audio has announced that its innovative vocal and dialogue processing tool is now fully compatible with Audio Random Access (ARA) in Pro Tools.
This integration allows users to streamline their workflow, applying intelligent dynamics processing without the need for real-time playback.
With ARA support, DynAssist directly interacts with Pro Tools’ timeline, enabling instant analysis and processing of audio clips. This removes the need for real-time playback during adjustments, significantly improving efficiency for music producers, mixing engineers, and post-production professionals working in Pro Tools.
DynAssist is designed to automate key vocal processing tasks, including:
- Automatic Gain Levelling: Ensures a steady vocal performance without excessive compression.
- AI-Powered Gate Control: Intelligently reduces background noise in pauses without cutting off speech.
- Breath & Sibilance Detection: Transparently removes unwanted artifacts while preserving natural tone.
- Instrument Mode: Optimises dynamics for instruments such as drums and bass.
Unlike traditional dynamic processors that require manual automation or multiple plug-ins, DynAssist’s ARA integration allows users to apply processing instantly, making it a powerful time-saving tool for mixing, dialogue editing, and vocal production.
Chris Winsor, Director of Pro Tools Product Management at Avid, comments on the Integration:
“We’re excited to partner with NoiseWorks to bring ARA support for DynAssist to Pro Tools. Not only does this integration intelligently streamline vocal and dialog editing, but the free DynAssist Lite offering will introduce many of these tools to all Pro Tools customers.”
Alongside the full version of DynAssist, Pro Tools customers with active subscriptions and perpetual upgrade plans now have access to DynAssist Lite for free. DynAssist Lite provides core functionality, including ARA support, with a streamlined feature set. Users can upgrade to the full version to unlock advanced processing options.
DynAssist with ARA support for Pro Tools is available now in VST3, AU, and AAX (Audio Suite) formats. Entitled Pro Tools customers can download DynAssist Lite via the Avid Link application or their Avid Account.
