Any such thing as reliable one-click software to fix digitized LP recordings?

[brassplyer]

For transferring LPs to CD is there such a thing as software that has a "fix it" button to do a solid job of removing surface noise and clicks/pops without much need for further adjustment by the user?

I have noise removal software but it's laborious to use particularly click/pop removal to avoid artifacts that degrade the good part of the sound. I go through a thorough vacuum-irrigation LP cleaning process which removes a lot of the problem but sometimes defects are just embedded into the vinyl. Wondering if in this day of AI there's a more sophisticated, reliable solution out there.

Thanks

I tried a few free programs. None was great, I did a fair amount of manual removal on a couple of albums. Audacity has some tools, but I felt they were mediocre.

There are several commercial ones, some with trial periods.... VinylStudio, Izotrope Rx, ClickRepair are a few. I think I tried Wave Corrector.

I agree with you. This would seem to be a perfect application for AI but I haven't tried any of these.

Doesn't have to be free, I want it to work.

Probably best you run the demo versions. Unless you know that it works, it's silly to blow money on something totally unknown.
