i was wondering if anyone has any easy tips for removing white noise from a recording

The noise reduction in Audacity 1.3 is much improved over 1.2

You can find it on 1.3 by clicking on “Effect” ,“Utility”, “Noise Removal”, “Noise Removal”.

You then select a “noise profile” : a bit of audio which should be silent (but in your case has white noise type hiss).

Then reselect “Noise Removal”, select the area of audio you want cleaned (the hiss noise removed from) and “preview”.
