raureduktor

Raureduktor is a term that appears in discussions related to music production and audio processing, though it is not a universally recognized or standard technical term in the field. Its usage typically refers to a hypothetical or conceptual device or process intended to reduce or eliminate "raw" or unrefined sounds from an audio signal. This might encompass a variety of undesirable sonic elements, such as unwanted noise, clicks, pops, or even overly harsh or unprocessed timbres.

The exact nature of a raureduktor would depend on the context. In some discussions, it might be envisioned as an advanced form of noise reduction, capable of identifying and removing a wider range of artifacts than conventional tools. In other instances, it could be a more abstract concept, representing a desired outcome of a complex signal processing chain designed to achieve a highly polished and refined sound.

While dedicated hardware or software specifically branded or widely known as "raureduktor" is not prevalent, the functions it implies are addressed by numerous existing audio tools. These include spectral repair plugins, advanced noise gates, de-essers, transient shapers, and even sophisticated equalization and dynamic processing techniques. Producers and engineers often employ combinations of these tools to achieve a similar goal of "reducing the raw" elements in their audio. The term itself seems to be more of a descriptive neologism rather than a defined piece of technology.
