Re: Noise only during speech

Nice Trebor, I didn't know such a thing existed. I'll take a look. kozikowski Is it always the same speaker that pops and has sibilant problems? Usually male, with the girls there's no problem. If the particular quality doesn't work for you and doesn't fit your circumstances... I think it does, I ga...

Re: Noise only during speech

I have already, I listed before the equipment I was using. Perhaps my recording apparatus is not good indeed, but it's not so bad. I'm doing something wrong for sure, this is what I have: Mic: Samson C03U USB. Other Related stuff: Pop Filter, Shock Mount, Mic Windscreen. Studio: I'm in China right n...

Re: Noise only during speech

Steve, Got it! I told my staff to stay as near to the mic as possible but since the material they are supposed to read is too long, they ended up laying down on the chair while reading it, thus getting far from the mic. I'll pay more attention to the recording levels next time. I believe my sound ca...

Re: Noise only during speech

Steve: I've applied the code you gave me and performed the suggested Noise removal. I'm uploading both files now, original and modified. See what you think. The hiss during the speech is definitely better but the overall noise is still too loud. I tried changing to other combinations of Noise Reduct...

Re: Noise only during speech

Ops, there was a reply here but it's gone! Anyway, Trebor, I tried different combinations of Noise Reduction and Sensitivity but they don't seem to provide me with a good result. I am uploading three small files, 2-3 seconds each. I'd appreciate if you could listen to them and give me some advice. T...

Noise only during speech

Hi there, While recording some podcasts I managed to succesfully reduce the background noise to really low levels. The inter speech interval is virtually a silence now. The noise removal settings I used are: Noise Reduction: 35 Sensitivity: 0.6 Frequency Smoothing: 150 Attack Decay Time: 0 My proble...

Re: Noise with very low sound music

Found out what the problem was. I got my whole family involved on this. Two cousins of mine who are musicians got into a very hard discussion about that noise. One could hear the noise, and the other couldn't. After testing the mp3 files on all the computers (using the same headset) I found out that...

Re: Noise with very low sound music

Trebor, why did you say that the signal to noise ratio is lower? When we decrease the signal amplitude by using compressor/amplify/envelope tool I thought the noise was also decreased , thus keeping the ration constant. No? bgravato, I've read the link you sent me.Thanks! steve, you really can't lis...

Re: Noise with very low sound music

I listened to the silent track (I had done before as well), and there was no sound at all. The way I mixed it with my vocal was by placing the vocal track in a different/separate track. I understand that perhaps some of you might not be able to hear it, it is quite subtle indeed. It's weird though, ...
