Can I Repair This Noisy Ruined Audio in Premiere Pro!?

In this video I use different Noise Reduction and Restoration audio effects in Adobe Premiere Pro to repair, clean up, and fix my voice over that I deliberately put fan noise on. I cover the Essential Sound Panel, DeHummer, DeNoise, and the Parametric EQ.

A very over the top example but I think the noise reduction effects in Premiere Pro do a decent job for what the source material was, what do you think?

Dude you just absolutely saved my day. I bought the Rode Wireless Go II and even though I tested it the evening before the shoot (which is when I bought it) and everything seemed good, on set I noticed a strong interference noise in all of my interviews. Like the sound you get from an incomming message on the smartphone when you have it next to your headphones. So I was super stressed because I couldnt fix that on location (exchanged every wire n mic) and prayed to the lord that "DeNoise" in Premiere would fix it. But it was reeeally bad so I didnt have much hope and in my head already went through how I would best tell my client that I have to reshoot the whole day. But your video saved me. Thank you!

De-hum is designed to remove ground loop hum. This is why it’s defaulted to 50 or 60 cycles (what common power mains operate at). It’s not really useful against broadband noise (like a fan or HVAC vent) which exists across all frequencies. De-Rumble is also designed to remove subby/low freq information. That’s why both of those processes made your dialog sound thin and didn’t do much to remove the fan noise. De-Noise is the proper approach for fan noise, but as we see using it too heavily will make it sound lo-fi and very unnatural. It’s a trade-off. This is why considering not only how beautiful a location LOOKS but also how it sounds (on location scouts) is very important.

@@fersatando it really depends on what that background noise is comprised of. If it’s occasional noises (like cart clinks or checkout beeps), I’d probably approach using RX Spectral Repair. If it’s more consistent noise (like hvac) an overall process like De-Noise may work to attenuate it.

Man, I have a situation that I just cannot solve. See if you can help me: I am using the Noise Reduction in the Essential Sounds panel to take out some noise in my audio. It works perfectly, but the first seconds of each clip the noise is present and then it fades out. It keeps this way after exporting. But it I use the loop tool (as you did in this video), after the first time it plays, the noise just disappear totally D: this is crazy! I have no clue how to fix it. I would use the DeNoise effect, but my version doest have it and I cant update for now. Thanks for reading all this! And I hope you have any idea

AC (Alternating Current) is set at 60 Hz for the US and I imagine the dehummer plugin just looks at removing common hums that result from electronics (as said in its description when you hover over it). The other countries are set at 50 Hz and if you didn't change the setting in premiere, then the dehummer plugin wouldn't work as well.

Hi Javier, Yes all of the techniques you used here are proper, but one mistake you have made which essentially is bad advice especially to novice is that when you selected the clip portion it should of been part with the dialogue as you are not aiming to just dehum or denoise you are looking for clean dialogue. With your example you are running into chances introducing unnecessary artifacts which you did. Selecting the actual dialogue and tweaking the sound as you go is the way to go in this example as the other way you did you'd ah to retract and the only thing your ears are comparing it to is the isolated noise.

@JavierMercedes 3 жыл бұрын

Ah ok, I like to use a part with no dialogue to isolate the hum and then move it over to the dialogue but agree with your reasoning, with denoise I will do the dialogue and start to bring it back or add the least amount as possible like I did in the 2nd part of the video when listening to the dialogue. Thanks for the advice!
