01
Reduction
0 to 30 dB
Sets how much residual noise remains after processing.
Hear the signal, not the static.
QRNix is a standalone DSP box between your radio and speaker. Pick a mode, tune four controls, and keep the radio in the conversation.
What it does
Noise reduction that stays out of your way.
QRNix listens to the audio leaving your receiver, estimates the noise, and reduces it before the audio reaches your speaker or amplifier. Bypass remains one switch movement away for an honest A/B comparison.
Front panel
Four knobs, one clear job each.
Start low, listen, then add only what the band needs.
02
Smoothing
0 to 100%
Steadies a moving noise floor. Too much can blur fast speech.
03
Whitening
0 to 100%
Softens tonal residue so aggressive reduction sounds more natural.
04
Aggression
0.00 to 2.00
Sets how hard QRNix suppresses noise. Start low to protect voice quality.
One button. Tap to cycle Tone-kill and Post-filter. Hold it in Spectral mode to capture a noise profile.
Mode switch
Choose the noise strategy, then get on with listening.
Every mode includes its best use, so there is no separate decision chart to decode.
Center
Bypass
Unprocessed audio through the box.
Best when: comparing settings, checking the band, or leaving the audio untouched.
Manual profile
Spectral
Hold the button during a one-second noise-only moment. QRNix uses that captured profile until you recapture or power off.
Best when: the noise is stable and weak signals need protection.
Continuous estimate
Adaptive
QRNix keeps updating its noise estimate as the band changes.
Best when: tuning around or following a shifting noise floor. Enter during quiet audio when possible.
Signal helpers
Four useful features.
Two are button-controlled. Two watch the signal for you.
Tone-kill
Suppresses a sustained tuning tone in any mode.
Post-filter
Smooths musical residue in Spectral and Adaptive modes.
CLIP
Flags an overloaded input so the source level can be reduced.
Auto input
Monitors both input channels and selects the stronger sustained signal.
