Acon Digital Restoration Suite 3 is a set of real-time audio repair plug-ins, released on 5 November 2026. DeNoise 3, DeHum 3, DeClick 3 and DeClip 3 still work on their own, but the new Restoration Suite 3 plug-in combines all four in one interface. Insert it, click Analyze and press play: after a few seconds it identifies broadband noise, hum, clicks or clipping and builds a ready-made repair chain you can tune at any time. It is $68 at Plugin Boutique until 17 November 2026, down from $99.
The machine-learning modes do most of the work. DeNoise 3's Automatic mode removes hiss, broadband noise, wind, buzz and camera noise with no noise profile, and you can listen to only what is being removed. DeHum 3 adds an ML Automatic mode, a Precision mode that follows hum drifting in pitch and a low-CPU, zero-latency Notch mode. DeClick 3 rebuilds clicks, crackle, drop-outs and plosive thumps from the surrounding audio, and DeClip 3 reconstructs clipped peaks with a level histogram and optional extra headroom.
The limits are about scope. There is no spectral editor, so one-off noises and surgical fixes need an editor such as Acoustica 8, which now includes the Restoration Suite 3 plug-in in its Premium and Ultimate editions, or RX 12 Standard. There is also no de-reverb, de-ess or dialogue isolation in this suite. On the plus side, it runs natively on Intel Macs as well as Apple silicon, supports up to 7.1.6 channels and is a one-time purchase with a free trial.
Restoration Suite 2 owners can upgrade for $33 at Plugin Boutique until 17 November, and anyone who registered a Restoration Suite 2 licence on or after 1 August 2026 gets version 3 free. Our Restoration Suite 3 first look covers every module, the specs, pricing and how it compares with RX 12, Photon and SpectraLayers.
