Tips for reducing audio noise

If you are trying to record your own music or if you have an audio recording full of distracting background noise, you should reduce the unwanted noise by using recording software that is available on your computer. Whether you’re working with a music recording, voice recording, or other type of recording, you should be able to remove unwanted noise so that you can capture the cleanest audio recording possible. At this point, this article will give you several tips to guide you in reducing audio noise.

First of all, you need to turn on your computer and then open the audio recording program that is capable of loading the software’s effect plugins. If you do not have such an application installed, you can search for it first. You can choose from popular programs including GarageBand, ProTools, Logic, Cubase, Digital Performer, Nuendo, Sonar, and Reason.

Second, you must load the audio file that contains the noise that you want to reduce. You can use the “Open” or “Import” option from the recording program menu to locate and load the audio file into your audio project. If there is no audio file on your computer, you can simply connect a musical instrument or microphone to your computer using the audio interface to reduce audio noise in real time.

Third, you need to apply the noise gate effect and also a compressor effect to the audio track that contains the unwanted noise. Commonly used noise gate plugins include Floorish and GGate. The most popular compressors are Waves SSl and Blockfish VST.

Fourth, you need to adjust the level on the compressor and the noise gate. The compressor can make the audio sound more even and will also eliminate “pops” or “cracks” created by volume spikes.

Finally, you can play the audio to which you have applied noise reduction effects. You need to ensure that the audio does not sound choppy or overly affected in any way. You can try comparing the new audio file with the original to make sure you have adequately reduced noise.
