iZotope RX 5 De-click
RX 5 De-click is an audio restoration plugin for iZotope's RX suite, designed for use in Avid Pro Tools as an AAX plugin. It removes clicks, pops, and other unwanted transient artifacts from audio recordings, a common task in post-production, podcast editing, and archival audio restoration. The plugin analyzes incoming audio and suppresses impulse noise while preserving tonal content. It runs as an insert effect on Pro Tools tracks and uses iZotope's machine-learning detection algorithms to identify and eliminate the noise intelligently.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionRX 5 De-click is an AAX plugin for Pro Tools, not a standalone app, so it is not updated independently. To update this plugin and ensure it runs natively on Apple Silicon, you must (1) first ensure Pro Tools itself is on a current native build — Pro Tools 2023.6 or newer — and (2) update the iZotope RX suite via iZotope Product Portal or your RX installer. iZotope shipped native Apple Silicon builds of RX starting with version 9 (released in 2021), so any RX version 9 or later will run natively. If you are still on RX 5, that is an older build that may not have full native support — check the iZotope Product Portal to see whether you qualify for an upgrade path or can purchase a newer version. Once both Pro Tools and RX are on current native builds, the De-click plugin will run natively and will continue to work after Apple removes Rosetta 2 in macOS 28 (September 2028). If you do not wish to upgrade RX, the current Intel-only RX 5 plugin will stop launching on Pro Tools in September 2028.
