hello,
i just made a simple timestretch comparisons using audiosculpt 3.2 and izotope rx3 (time & pitch module in radius mode).
to my ears audiosculpt is the clear winner. with audiosculpt i get lesser artifacts and a more natural overall sound.
(specially with stretch factors greater that 4).
the test sound was a gong with a sharp attack. (i append the original file as wave and the processed files as mp3)
there is a clear difference between the results regarding the transition from the transient to the decay phase of the sound.
in the audiosculpt-result there is a dip in volume (between transient and decay phase)
which doesn’t exist in the rx-result nor in the original soundfile.
so i am not sure if the dip is caused by a special setting in the “process treatment” options.
as far as i remember i used a 4096 samp winsize, 8x winstep and 4x fftsize oversamp. the rest of the processing
parameters are set to the “factor settings”.
thanks for your help,
johannes
