Re: Updated De-Clicker and new De-esser for speech

Trebor, I see you use even more bands than I do and a higher top frequency. You must be very patient! My work has everything above 11.5 kHz stripped out by other parties so I don't worry about that. You probably know this: if you choose Spectrogram view, then the bands you specify do not correspond ...

Re: A De-essing Filter to remove sibilance

Hello RetroRemix,

koz and Trebor have both pointed you to my plug-in. Trebor's link includes more explanation from me of the settings.

I will gladly answer questions.

Re: Updated De-Clicker and new De-esser for speech

Well thanks Trebor! Your suggestion for stereo is a good one one. Have you observed that defect? I haven't, I work only with narration, all mono, no mixing. Will you test improvements if I write them? Or send me a test case? Attached is my own pet example of a bit I captured from a professionally pr...

Re: Updated De-Clicker and new De-esser for speech

Trebor speaks highly of your De-esser - he said it was better than Spitfish. Gale No joke! Well I don't really know what "real" de-essers do, but mine could be described as a multi-band brickwall limiter, with many narrow bands in the default settings, which account for the slowness but perhaps als...

Re: Updated De-Clicker and new De-esser for speech

Hi Paul There seem to be suggestions that the De-Esser is very good. Is the De-Esser also good for music vocals? Does it need more development? Would you want it to be published on the Audacity Wiki if so when? Gale From whom have you heard that? I am not sure I'm doing a smartest things mathematic...

Re: NoiseRemoval.cpp

You might have made a user error by hitting Return expecting the effect to apply, but instead taking the whole track as noise profile (which is NOT part of undo-able state of the project). Then when you next did hit OK, everything was reduced. Notice that when you first call up Noise Removal after r...

Re: NoiseRemoval.cpp

Paul, did you follow through with the steps on Windows and see if the tone was excessively reduced? Try half a dozen times at least if you can. Also I've noticed that when Undo fails or sometimes when the tone is reduced, zero bytes TMP files are written to the folder I run Audacity from. This may ...

Re: NoiseRemoval.cpp

I do recollect seeing the Undo bug on Windows in 2.0.5. I have not seen anything I would call a "white flash" though. Cut lines: I found enough evidence that they are involved in this bug. The cursor change for cut lines somehow correlates with it. And I think I saw evidence that when Undo is in the...

Re: NoiseRemoval.cpp

There is still the question of incorrect reduction of level to the tone, if you do complete the steps. I have not seen that yet on Mac. Could (any) effect become confused by the failed Undo in some way that could lead to unexpected results? Gale I think the Undo bug is simply the Undo command silen...
