X-Click removes strong, short transient noise such as clicks, spikes, switching noise and digital crosstalk while preserving your source material.

Ideal for restoring vinyl and shellac records, X-Click isolates, displays and reduces clicks from analogue sources, and also minimises clicks and pops caused by digital issues such as clocking errors and sample rate mismatches. Once set up properly, it leaves virtually no audible artefacts. The large display shows the last ten seconds of processing with detected clicks in red, speeding up fine-tuning.

Features

• Monitor only the clicks to fine-tune adjustments
• Display of the last 10 seconds, with clicks in red
• Choose the click shape, from sharp digital to wide analogue transients
• Automatic click removal or manual processing of individual clicks
• Attenuation meter shows the amount of click reduction
