Super Hi-Fi, the global leader in AI-powered radio experiences for radio broadcasters and digital media platforms, today announced the launch of VoiceIQ, the first AI-powered mastering and post-production technology designed exclusively to take voice recordings from any device and convert those files into studio-quality masters without the need for any manual intervention. Any audio use-case that requires high quality voice production in near-real time can now use VoiceIQ to simplify their workflow; generate more consistency across various production platforms; and significantly enhance the overall quality of the outputs.
“A number of our customers, particularly in the broadcast space, have been asking for much more speed and flexibility when it comes to voice recording and mastering,” said Brendon Cassidy, Chief Scientist, CTO, and co-founder of Super Hi-Fi. “VoiceIQ is the solution for each of those requests, offering incredible efficiency while maintaining the extremely high quality of the hand-tuned mastering outputs that our customers require for their broadcast needs.”
VoiceIQ automatically solves the most common problems found in today’s voice track recordings: noise in the files; gaps of silence at the edges; inappropriate and inconsistent equalization for production use; non-optimal dynamic range; low recording volume; and much more. Using an entirely new array of Super Hi-Fi’s audio analysis and machine learning processes, VoiceIQ eliminates these and other audio artifacts, and near-instantly converts each voice track into a fully production-ready file for use across almost any broadcast need.
“As radio broadcasters and media platforms look to streamline and scale up voice production, VoiceIQ unlocks extraordinary capability” said Zack Zalon, CEO and co-founder of Super Hi-Fi. “The supply chain and production of radio-quality voice has now been dramatically simplified to drive significant value and product innovation opportunities for an array of use cases.”
VoiceIQ is applicable across a wide range of services, providing the opportunity to turn today’s plain audio into tomorrow’s storytelling devices.
Broadcast Radio: VoiceIQ fits seamlessly into existing radio broadcast stacks and integrates an entirely new layer of quality and efficiency to the voice production process. The technology creates outputs that are virtually indistinguishable from existing manual mastering processes.
Streaming Music Services: As voice becomes more critical to the music listening experience, VoiceIQ can simplify and scale the voice creation and production process. Music+News, Music+Ads, Music+Artist Commentary are just a few examples of how VoiceIQ can streamline the content creation process.
Audio Advertisers: For publishers and distribution platforms alike, VoiceIQ scales production with instant, high quality mastering, to provide more content diversity and more revenue.
With the launch of VoiceIQ, Super Hi-Fi continues to evolve the audio landscape and provide a toolbox of innovation for companies using music and voice to create exceptional listening experiences for their customers. VoiceIQ is available to use as part of Super Hi-Fi’s fully integrated Automated Production Suite, or as a standalone service for integration into almost any existing production stack.
