Elevayta has just released Klean Boy, a VST plug-in which aims to reduce broadband noise and hum from stereo digital recordings.

Designed to be easy and intuitive to use, Klean Boy provides a choice between manual sampling of the noise floor or fully automatic continuous and adaptive extraction of the noise floor. The automatic extraction mode provides the advantage that it can be used on material where no easy sampling of the noise is possible.

Klean Boy is available now in VST format for Windows and costs $29.95. Note that a demo version and audio examples are also available.
