NoiseWorks VoiceAssist Standard

VoiceAssist Standard is an all-in-one vocal processing plugin that combines intelligent leveling, AI-powered gating, breath control, and de-essing in a single offline-analysis pass. It replaces the typical 4-plugin vocal prep chain (gain rider → gate → de-breather → de-esser) with one unified workflow.

VoiceAssist Standard is the direct successor to DynAssist — existing DynAssist owners receive VoiceAssist Standard as a free upgrade.

Who is this for?

• Mix engineers replacing multi-plugin vocal prep chains (Vocal Rider + Gate + DeBreath + De-Esser)
• Podcast and dialogue editors needing broadcast-ready processing in one step
• Post-production editors (film, TV, corporate video) who need intelligent gating
• Content creators who want professional vocal cleanup without deep audio knowledge
• DynAssist owners upgrading to the VoiceAssist engine

Includes

• Dynamic Section (Leveling)
• Gate Section (AI Voice Detection)
• Breath Section (AI Breath Control)
• Sibilance Section (De-Essing)
• ARA & Transfer Mode

Dynamics Section

Every word and syllable counts — whether it’s dialogue or vocals. The Dynamics section analyzes your performance and writes a custom volume automation tailored to your settings. Want a subtle volume ride no one will notice? Use High Speed mode. Need aggressive leveling for modern vocals or rap? Switch to Fast Speed for a clear, consistent presence that cuts through. Work in LUFS-I or LUFS-S, with integrated peak control to trigger compression only when it’s actually needed.

Breath & Sibilance Section

Harsh sibilance and distracting breaths can make even great performances sound unprofessional.

VoiceAssist gives you intelligent detection with flexible editing:

• Automatically detect breaths and sibilance
• Adjust intensity globally or per section
• Choose volume-based or spectral processing (Sibilance)
• Add, remove, or resize sections freely

Everything stays editable. The result stays natural, clean, and mix-ready.

Gate Section

The content-aware Vox Gate only works when it really has to. Instead of relying on a fixed threshold, VoiceAssist uses intelligent voice and silence detection to avoid over-processing and unnatural cuts — even across comped takes or changing mic positions. Prefer full control? Switch to a traditional threshold-based mode and fine-tune boundaries to match your recording situation.
