Both results were good, but not without some, subtle motion artifacts. Comparing the results to the built-in tools didn’t leave any clear winner in my mind. One test shot had the camera operator with a DSLR moving around a group of people at a construction site in a semi-circle, which is a tough shot to stabilize. There are several starting parameters to choose from, such as “handheld walking”, which determine the analysis to be done on the clip. The default setting was a bit heavy-handed, but after a few tweaks, I had the clean track I was looking for.ĮasyStabilizer is designed to tame shaky and handheld camera footage. EchoRemover did the trick on my trouble clip. Often those recordings have a touch of “boominess” to the sound, because of the room ambience. EchoRemover is a solid, go-to, “fix it” filter for location and studio interviews, voice overs, and other types of dialogue. In my testing, a couple of the CrumplePop filters proved very useful to me. Regardless, the tools are easy to use and usually provide good results. In other words, results will be better with one tool or the other, depending on the challenges presented in any given clip. Ultimately the best results are often dependent on the individual clip. Some of these functions, like stabilization, are also available within the host application itself. Naturally, whenever you compare any given effect or filter from company A versus company B, you can never definitively say which is the best one. The controls are minimal, but simplicity doesn’t mean lack of power. I’ve tested several of these effects and they are simple to apply and adjust.

As with all of the FxFactory effects, you can download a trial through the FxFactory application and see for yourself, whether or not to buy. On the other hand, the audio filters work in the editing applications, but also Audition, Logic Pro X, and even GarageBand. While most are cross-application compatible, the EasyTracker effect only works in Final Cut Pro X. For example, an effect that is listed for Premiere Pro may also work in After Effects or Audition (in the case of audio).

These are listed on the FxFactory site, however, this list isn’t always complete. You’ll have to check the info for each specific plug-in to make sure it works with your application needs. Like much of the eclectic mix of products curated through FxFactory, the CrumplePop effects work on a mix of Apple and Adobe products (macOS only). These are AudioDenoise, EchoRemover, VideoDenoise, AutoWhiteBalance, EasyTracker, and BetterStabilizer. CrumplePop has since expanded its offerings through FxFactory to include a total of six audio and video products. Last year the two companies joined forced to bring the first audio plug-ins to the FxFactory plug-in platform. Namely, FxFactory (Noise Industries) and CrumplePop. If you edit with Final Cut Pro – either the classic and/or new version – then you are familiar with two of its long-running plug-in developers.
