Resound Reviews

The automatic editing capabilities are great. But the voice enhancement is very poor. I have excellent studio equipment, but just a tiny bit of background noise persists due to my lighting. That shouldn't be an issue. But no matter the setting, the sound becomes terrible. And it's not a matter of having a good ear and noticing details; the sound is really transformed into something of poor quality.
Some Sumolings pointed out that since an update, the quality has significantly decreased. I think that must be the reason. In any case, we can't improve the audio at the moment. And if Resound just becomes software for auto-editing, there are better and cheaper options on the market that also handle videos.

Hey Resound,thank you so much!!!

I was in a jam and needed to do a recording for a book I wrote, and needed a tool the take out the uhms and ahas and dead space. Well, I purchased resound, but never used it until yesterday October 13, 2024, and it is awesome 😎 👍 I took and almost two hour recording and dwindle it down to 1 hour 24 minutes. It processed pretty fast, I am pleased. I cannot attest to the other reviews that are saying resound went downhill with that May update, and they probably do more complex editing than me, so I hope resound happily takes their feedback as a challenge to make their tool even better because I would like to purchase tier 3 if they decide to come back to AppSumo one last time 😊 hopefully they stay a little longer so everyone can catch the best deal in town. I did use this tool in conjunction with Xound first before using resound to edit, what a powerhouse combo!

When this deal was launched it was a pretty good way to clean audio. Not as good as Adobe Podcast (which has gotten even worse) or Auphonic (which is MILES better) but enough to hold its own. I even wrote about it on LinkedIn.

I tested its capabilities before committing to a Tier 3 purchase. Then, sometime around May 2024, they rolled out an update that has pretty much made the tool unusable. Now, you need to subscribe to some add-ons or change to subscription billing to get the same functionality that you were getting before the update.

Classic bait and switch.

Shame, because Resonate (the parent company) actually seems to be a decent production house. Not gonna trust anything from Resound or Resonate from here on...

The tool seems to lower the sound in areas where it's not necessary, creating an unbalanced audio experience. There's no way to make targeted adjustments to specific parts of the audio. End result worsen than my original recording, even after applying various filters, the results were subpar. The processed audio often sounds artificial and unnatural, which is a significant drawback.

Resound does exactly what it says on the box. It eliminates 'uuummms' and long silences. It's super easy to use. And it even cleans up your audio. Happy to recommend.
