And we've got a cough here, and a cell phone ring here. This one has the kind of sound that you get with old vinyl records. So you can see the fan noise in the bottom there, the hiss on the top. It's the same music clip repeated over and over with different kinds of noises applied to it. I've got this file that has several noise examples.


I'm working here inside the spectral frequency view. And there are two ways to do that in Audition: Hiss Reduction and Noise Reduction. Original audio rendered and replaced with a new file called Audio Extracted_2.wavįigure 4.After you've adjusted levels, your first task in the noise reduction and sound removal process is to remove background noises. And we do in fact see several significant pops and clicks in the waveform now opened in Audition, as shown in Figure 4.įigure 3. Choosing the clip to edit in AuditionĪdobe Production Premium then does a Render and Replace, where the original audio gets replaced with the Audio Extracted_2.wav file shown in Figure 3 (below), and Figure 4 (below Figure 3) shows the audio file in Audition. To open the clip in Audition, select the file in the timeline, then choose Edit > Edit in Adobe Audition > Clip ( Figure 2, below) to choose the clip, not the sequence, and open it in Audition.įigure 2. If you're working with Adobe Production Premium CS6, you'll want to perform this work in Adobe Audition, the professional audio editing application that ships with Premiere Pro CS6 when you purchase it in most Creative Suite versions. The waveform we'll be working with-multiple pops and clicks, and overall volume too low.Īny time you boost audio volume, you run the risk of background noises appearing and getting significant. (Be sure to refer to the video at the top of this page to hear the noises I refer to in the text of this article.)įigure 1. Sending the Audio Clip to Auditionįigure 1 (below) shows a waveform of the audio clip we're going to be working with, and in the Source Window you can see that there are some pretty significant pops and clicks (represented by the long, thin vertical lines that pop out in the waveform).

In this tutorial, I'll show you how to remove both of them in Adobe Audition. There are two types of noises that degrade the audio that you shoot with your video: random noises like microphone clicks and pops, and consistent noises like white noise or air conditioning hum.
