Topaz Nyx
Nyx is Topaz Labs' high-quality video denoiser, clearing sensor noise, grain and compression artefacts while preserving real texture. Resolution and frame rate are kept from the source, at 1080p or 4K. Best for live action and game capture that must stay faithful.See more

FAQ
How much does Topaz Nyx cost? Is it free?+
How does Layer's pricing work?+
There are no seat fees, feature gates, or plans on Layer. Instead, our platform uses a consumption based system with Creative Units (CUs) with a flexible monthly subscription. Every generation on Layer (image, video, 3D, or audio) consumes a Creative Unit, and you only pay for what you create.
