It's not absolute noise that's the problem, although the system cares about that too, it's the relationship between your voice and the background noise. I composed that format to get a bunch of tests crammed into one simple sound clip. If all goes well, I'm going to return your clip to you in ACX co...

The Profile step has no graphics. You click Get Profile and everything vanishes. It doesn't tell you a thing. It's the second pass that allows you to set how you want Noise Reduction to work.
