Noise Ninja 2.3.2
Noise Ninja is released to be a brand new and effective plug-in for Photoshop, Photoshop Elements, and compatible hosts which focuses on removing noise and grain from digital photographs and scanned film images. more>>
Noise Ninja 2.3.2 is released to be a brand new and effective plug-in for Photoshop, Photoshop Elements, and compatible hosts which focuses on removing noise and grain from digital photographs and scanned film images. It is a must-have tool for anyone shooting in low-light or fast-action situations -- including news, sports, wedding, and event coverage -- where high ISO photography is required and the resulting noise compromises the image.
Noise Ninja often yields a two-stop improvement in effective image quality, while preserving important image detail. In addition, it can produce cleaner, smoother enlargements from low-ISO images.
Enhancements:
- 64-bit support for 64-bit Photoshop CS4 and above on 64-bit Windows
- Changed default profiles folder
- Improved licensing usability
- Improved installer usability
Requirements:
- Adobe Photoshop 7.0
- Adobe Photoshop Elements

AbsoluteDeNoiser 1.2d
AbsoluteDeNoiser - Noise reduction filter for digital images more>>
AbsoluteDeNoiser is Java-based software that should run on almost every machines.
Digital cameras or scanners often produce images that contains noise, especially when using high ISO. This noise is made of random pixel variations that damage the picture in different manner, adding unwanted granular effects. To obtain a good result, this noise should be removed paying a great attention to :
- Image details that often can be removed with noise, and edges definition that are often blured by basic noise reduction technics.
- Keeping some granularity to avoid the common "plastic" effect of too much noise removal.
AbsoluteDeNoiser (Free version) works in 3 steps :
- Edges detection : this analyse makes a separation between large surfaces with poor details, and places where some edges and/or details require a special attention. The value to tune enables to decide the sensitivity of the edges detection, thus the amount of the picture that is to be considered as details/edges or not. Surfaces and edges will then be processed in different ways in next steps.
- Surfacing : performs a calculation of local color cohesion to decide, for each pixel, what is the mean color value in the noise variations arround it, without merging two different surfaces together. This step also processes surfaces and edges in two different ways. The more important is the value that tunes the surface managment : it is the one that decides of the effective noise reduction. There is also a secondary value that tunes the edges managment, but it should often be kept at a low value to avoid bluring edges : in some cases it offers the possibility to reduce some edges pixelisation effects.
- Texturing : the step 2 may provide with "too" clean surfaces where some small details or textures could have been lost, and possibly a "plastic" effect. This final filter decides the amount of original pixels that should be added back to the clean surface to restore details and textures without re-introducing the noise that should be removed. A first value tunes how much part of pixels that was removed in step 2 shows a local regularity, thus how much noise vs details is to be considered on them. There is also a secondary value that tunes how much pure granularity, without special regularity, should be added back without re-introducing bad strong spots and scratches.
Enhancements:
- New installation using a zipped bundle to fix a memory configuration trouble.

Gainset will show you the gain setting for your amplifier that will provide the highest signal to noise ratio more>>
Enter GainSet... GainSet is a computer program that does this calculation for you. Using information you provide about your system, GainSet will show you the gain setting for your amplifier that will provide the highest signal to noise ratio and the "hottest" signal you can achieve before your system clips.
GainSet is a computer program for sound professionals brought to you by Jason Romney and Michel Marrano of the North Carolina School of the Arts Graduate Theatre Sound Design program. Please browse through the F.A.Q. and download a copy of GainSet for yourself! We would love to hear what you think about GainSet so please feel free to contact us.

Hcompress
Command-line image compression program more>> Command-line image compression program
Hcompress is the image compression package for the Space Telescope Science Institute.
Hcompress uses the following method:
- a wavelet transform called the H-transform (a Haar transform generalized to two dimensions), followed by
- quantization that discards noise in the image while retaining the signal on all scales, followed by
- quadtree coding of the quantized coefficients.
MorseDec (68K) 1.0
If youve ever twirled the dials on a shortwave radio, chances are youve heard some strange beeping noises more>> If youve ever twirled the dials on a shortwave radio, chances are youve heard some strange beeping noises. That noise is actually a code--Morse Code--and those beeping sounds are actually pages and pages of text messages being sent around the world at lightning speed. In the past, you had to be a skilled radio operator to decode these signals, but today, you can simply download MorseDec and let your Mac do all the translation work. Just hook up a microphone to the sound input jack of your Macintosh, place it in front of your radio speaker, launch MorseDec, and tune your shortwave or amateur radio to a Morse code transmission, and watch the translated text stream across your monitor.
