Product Description
iZotope Photon is a standalone app and ARA plug-in for AI stem separation and audio enhancement. Powered by 12 cutting-edge, custom-trained machine learning models, Photon runs locally on your GPU for a fast, easy workflow. No uploads, no cutoffs, no interruptions. Split stems, remove noise, balance levels, and isolate vocals, even in conversations with up to 6 speakers. When you need to get in, get work done, and get out in a few moves, Photon’s got you. With bespoke models built to match your needs, just set the strength, click anywhere in the clip, and hear results right away. And inside your DAW, the Photon ARA plug-in brings the full engine to your timeline. No choice overload. Just drag, drop, dial, and deliver. The first joint research effort from iZotope and Boris FX. The continued development of SoundApp. Photon brings the expertise of two teams together, sharing cutting-edge tech to go further, faster.
WHAT DOES PHOTON DO?
Turn any finished song, scene, or drum kit into editable elements for quick tweaks and rebalances. Split up to 6 voices into stems, plus isolate room tone and background noise for clear conversations. Clear out echo, wind, traffic, and background noise with custom-trained models built to fix, fast. Bring distant, muffled speech forward, and balance levels so every word is heard loud and clear.
CUTTING-EDGE MODELS FOR ANY MIX OR MESS
Photon’s machine learning models are custom-trained on iZotope's own real-world audio data. Each model is made for a specific job, from splitting a music mix to cleaning up a windy interview. They’re deep, powerful, and local – no cloud processing required. Photon’s always improving. Get new models as they’re released in the Model Manager. No need to reinstall – download and try them right away on the project in front of you. Photon’s full-scale models run locally on your GPU for serious speed and power. Click anywhere in the clip and hear results in seconds – no need for the whole file to process first. No cloud uploads, credits, or cutoffs interrupting your workflow. Get the sound you want, with the speed you need.
ARA PLUG-IN: THE FULL ENGINE, IN-DAW
The ARA plug-in brings Photon right inside your DAW. Instead of a real-time buffer, Photon works from the entire clip, so it gets the full context of the file. Run several models together, and the processed audio cache carries results across every instance of a clip – so you can switch and compare without waiting. Drop in your audio or video file and export in the format you need. Working from audio? Choose from WAV, FLAC, or MP3. Working from video? Export in the same format as your source, with your video content left untouched.
HAVE THE FINAL SAY WITH DEMIX
A finished file doesn’t have to be locked in. With Photon, you get the key. Drop in any audio or video file and split it into editable elements – music, voice, sound effects, instruments, speakers – all without needing to open a session. Experiment with cutting-edge machine learning models. Pick the right one for you. Adjust what you want. Cut what you don’t. And export the audio or video you need. All in a flash.
CLEAN ANY SCENE WITH DENOISE
Real-world audio is never perfect. Echoey rooms, rush hour streets, windy hills, tinny calls – distractions are everywhere. Thankfully, no matter where you hit record, there’s a cleanup model for you. And don’t worry about diagnosing the problem: Photon’s cutting-edge machine learning models find and fix it, while balancing levels and enhancing vocal clarity.
