iZotope’s award-winning RX 6 Audio Editor is the industry standard for audio repair, restoration, and enhancement. It offers a comprehensive suite of tools focused on alleviating common to complex audio issues. Post production professionals, audio engineers, and video editors alike use RX to transform problematic recordings into production-ready audio.
Design Philosophy
Izotope Rx Contour 2
The RX 6 Audio Editor is a visual, selection-based editing environment. Most of its user interface is devoted to the Spectrogram/Waveform display, an integral part of the RX editing workflow. The display enables you to refine and visualize your audio, allowing for better recognition and selection of problem areas.

Oct 08, 2018 iZotope RX 7 Advanced’s Dialogue Contour module. I quickly realized this when I experimented with the Dialogue Contour module. When I’m recording a video tutorial for some app, I have a tendency to increase my voice’s pitch as I approach the last part, but then realize I still need to add a closing thought.

This help guide is shared by RX 6 Elements, RX 6 Standard and RX 6 Advanced. The following tags are used throughout the manual to differentiate the feature sets:
- [STD & ADV] Indicates that a feature is included in RX 6 Standard and RX 6 Advanced.

Overview
The Phase module balances asymmetric waveforms by rotating signal phase. Rotating the phase of a signal changes its peak values but doesn’t change its loudness, and otherwise has no audible effect on the signal.
Controls
- Adaptive Phase Rotation: Continuously analyzes the audio selection and applies the time-variable phase rotation to both left and right channels, resulting in a symmetrical waveform with minimal signal peak levels.
Adaptive phase rotation is best used on vocal material, as it can occasionally yield pitch artifacts on musical material. - Rotation (deg): Rotates the channel’s phase by the specified degree.
When a waveform’s phase is rotated, every frequency is rotated equally. Rotating phase by 180 degrees inverts the waveform. - Suggest: Analyzes the selection for the ideal channel-linked fixed phase for reducing overall peak levels of the signal.

More Information
Asymmetric waveforms can occasionally occur in audio such as dialogue, voice, and brass instruments.
- Making the waveform more symmetrical gives the signal more headroom.
- Rotating the phase of a waveform, will change its amplitude characteristics. Phase rotation does not result in a time shift.
- Because the range of rotation is from −180 to +180 degrees, the Phase tool can be used for simpler purposes, such as inverting signal polarity.

Visual Example of Phase Rotation
Izotope Rx Contouring
The top waveform in the folloiwing image is a trumpet signal with higher peak values on one side of its waveform (meaning the waveform is asymmetrical.)
The bottom waveform in the folloiwing image has been processed by the Phase module. The processig rotated the phase of the waveform by −72 degrees to distribute its peak samples more evenly (making the waveform more symmetrical.)
