If you don’t like the plastic look you inevitably get with a heavily denoised image, I wouldn’t recommend using the brand new Renoiser 1 to add noise again. Rendering noise reduction results remains a slow affair, though. Denoiser III 3.0 gives splendid results out of the box. In Final Cut Pro X I used Photon Pro, which did a good job but required a lot of repeated small adjustments to get it right, taking an awful lot of time. Denoiser used to work only with Adobe products. Here’s a plug-in that has been entirely rewritten, resulting in a slimmed down set of controls. Perhaps the least spectacular, but most important new module in Magic Bullet Suite 13 is Denoiser III 3.0. Adobe After Effects and Premiere Pro users will be happy to know that Looks 4 and Denoiser III now enjoy Mercury support - which means they now have real-time playback of the effects in their favourite composition and editing applications. Version 13 includes new versions of Colorista, Looks, Denoiser, Film, Mojo and Cosmo. Final Cut Pro X users rejoice: all of Red Giant’s Magic Bullet Suite modules now work as plug-in to your beloved NLE.
