New Resources for DeNoise 5

We’ve been thrilled with the response to DeNoise 5 and thank everyone who has tried it for their feedback and comments. Powered by unique IntelliNoise™ technology, Topaz DeNoise 5 runs twice as fast, can process images twice as large, and features both our new dual-directional debanding technology and exclusive capability to remove color casts in shadow areas, restoring true richness and tone. For all of you still learning and getting comfortable with using DeNoise 5 in your post processing workflow, we have some new resources designed with you in mind.

• For starters, we have a special two-part overview tutorial presented by Topaz developer and President Albert Yang:

New and Upcoming Topaz Developments

Here’s a quick sneak peek at what’s new and coming soon from Topaz Labs in the coming months.

• Question of the Week – Last week we started the new Topaz Question of the Week. This new resource will offer additional insight into your Topaz software. Each Friday we will review and answer a user-submitted question regarding features, uses and functionality of Topaz software. Last week’s question was: “What is the best way to incorporate Topaz into my workflow?” Be sure to visit our Facebook or Twitter page to see this weeks question and join in on the discussion!
• Enhancement Upgrade – Reminiscing about great features like Snap and Recall from your previous versions of your favorite Topaz programs? We are happy to announce a series of upcoming enhancement upgrades based off of your valued feedback and requests. As always, these upgrades will be available at no additional cost for existing users.
• ReMask 3 – Yes, it’s been a long time coming, but definitely worth the wait! Our dedicated development team has been working long and hard on making the new ReMask 3 program the best it can be. Included in the new program will be the new interface style, a faster more intuitive workflow, and a better solution for handling the hard task of masking and extracting hair.

You’ll receive more notifications as these updates become available. Every upgrade mentioned above will be freely provided to our existing customers.
