What happens when audio is so bad… even the best plugins can't save it?

In this episode of The Pro Audio Suite, we're joined by Michael "Gomez" Pearce-Adams from Waves Audio to talk about Voice Regeneration, a new AI-driven tool designed to rebuild poor-quality dialogue into something actually usable.

And this isn't just noise reduction or EQ… it's a complete rethink of how broken audio gets fixed.

We dig into:

  • Why this will never be a plugin
  • How AI is actually "rebuilding" voice recordings
  • Real-world use cases, from podcast disasters to phone interviews
  • What this means for audio engineers and post-production
  • The limits of AI audio, and where it still falls over

There's also a bigger conversation here about where the industry is heading, and whether tools like this are helping or hurting the craft.

If you've ever been handed unusable audio and told "can you fix this?", this one's for you.
