General Discussion / Re: Host AUHAL or Core Audio?

Last post by Paul Sanders (AlpineSoft) - Today at 03:54:27 PM

It doesn't make a lot of difference to be honest.  If AUHAL is working, I would stick with it.

General Discussion / Host AUHAL or Core Audio?

Last post by metal4ever - Today at 12:40:48 PM

Hey!! I digitize my lp's with the ADI-2/4 Pro SE and MacBook Pro. I noticed options for the Host AUHAL or Core Audio in the Check Level section. The setting has always been AUHAL and is working properly I believe. I'm just wondering what the differences are?

OK.  Linux might support your RME 'out of the box', or you could ask on their support forums.

Thank you! I was doing some further reading last night and am realizing that what Aad/DA device is utilized may pose an issue. I have an RME, ADI-2 Pro FS R BE specifically, and RME doesn't release Linux drivers at all. So while the interface works in Linux, I'm curious how well without explicit driver support... Still willing to try though

@Paul Sanders - this is the one program keeping me on Windows currently, highly interested in your Linux version, and willing to partake in beta testing

Sorry, no, this is not currently possible.  But are you talking about click repairs or hiss reduction?  Thanks.

Please note also that you can toggle between listening to the corrected and uncorrected audio in the Cleanup Audio window by pressing C (or use the button in the toolbar).

Technical Support / Listen to Just the Noise - Or ...

Last post by Andy Morris - May 12, 2026, 05:45:55 PM

Before I switched to Vinyl Studio my previous workflow was a hack of Audacity and ClickRepair, and its associated DeNoise program. 

While Vinyl Studio is a lot quicker and smother to use, there is one thing I can't see how to do is get an indication of if I have over restored the whole record of just some sections. 

In my hacked up workflow I was able to save an export of the whole album, after normalisation (and equalisation for 78s), do the restoration work, de-clicking and noise removal, save an export of the end result.

Then in Audacity I could Import both files, invert the second, mic the two together to get a track with just the noise. 

I found this useful in two ways.

•  If you could follow the tune in the noise, you had probably over processed it.
• By looking at the bits of the track where the noise was most visible, you could spot where Dave had really gone for the rims shots or the ride cymbals and maybe turn the correction down a bit there.

Is there anyway of doing this in VinylStudio?

Not really - all your 'raw' recordings have to be copied across.

If you have VinylStudio Pro (or Premium), you can do it from the Batch window.  There is a video about that on our tutorials page:

OK, so I found my answer in the thread linked to below.

Would it not make sense to put this option in the Settings window, instead of going to the File/Open Collection or maybe both locations>
