HD Tutorial: Remove Background Noise

2009-04-02
hey what's up to YouTube welcome to another HD tutorial and in this video I'll be showing you how to remove unwanted background noise from your videos and from your audio using two programs okay the first one I'm going to use is audacity you've probably watched my audacity tutorial already but if you haven't go check it out just showing you guys how do you download audacity and a brief intro so we're gonna do is remove the background noise and Odyssey so I have a sample clip here and it has a little bit of background noise in here just a little bit of white noise that I might want to get rid of especially in this ending part right here what I'm going to do is select a part just by clicking and dragging and letting go when I'm done and this is the part I've selected with the white noise in it so I've intentionally paused at the end of my speaking to give it a chance to realize that that's white noise now that I've selected I'm going to go to effect and go down to noise removal click it and you'll have to go step one is to click select a few seconds of just noise so i'd acity knows what to filter up then click get noise profile so we're gonna we already selected it we selected get noise profile and then we're going to select the entire track just by clicking and dragging over the entire thing and we go to effect and we go down to noise removal again and this is where we select all the audio which we already did and choose how much noise you want filtered out so I'm gonna a good rule of thumb is to drag it all the way to less if to preview it and you obviously won't hear the preview but you're going to hit the I owe you but out yeah we hit the preview button and you realize on if you want more or less audio taken out I'll drag it to about where I think it's done and after you've heard the preview again hit remove noise and the noise is already completely removed so if you were to play it back you might not hear it but it actually is completely gone on all your all your background noise is good so you'll be able to focus exactly on my audio and I'm going to try to use it for this video too so that's how you do it in audacity and stay tuned for a lot more audacity tutorials to come so let's open the second way which is to actually do with the camera file in Camtasia Studio 6 so we're going to do is import media and we're just going to import any random video here I'll just go into my videos I have a few videos I'll import obviously an introduction video isn't a great idea because it has music in it but again if you were to import a camera file with you speaking you would want to do this kind of thing so I'll just drag your file to the timeline it has to be on the timeline before you do anything with it and you obviously choose your preset I'm gonna choose my HD preset and if you do want to know how to use that or make that HD preset just go ahead and watch the video it's very good so once you have this we're going to select where we want to do the noise removal so I'm going to zoom in here and say there's a part I don't want to move it into the in the introduction but after the introduction when I'm speaking I'm gonna highlight that part or I'm actually speaking and this is the part where I want to remove noise so we're going to go up here to the Edit tab and we're going to go to audio enhancements and while this region down here is still selected we're going to hit man we're going to go automatically try to detect noise on the timeline and just hit remove noise and there you go it's finished removing the noise from the timeline so now when you do play it back and by the way the region that's selected afterward is a part where it's identified you're actually you have white noise so you can go ahead and play it back in just make sure you know that that's the way you like it now if you don't like that you can obviously go ahead and hit the restore noise button and restore all the noise that was there before and when you're done hit OK and your audio has been fixed so that's how you fix noise background noise white noise computer running noise in the background and two different programs Camtasia Studio 6 obviously audacity so if you do like this tutorial go ahead and subscribe there are a lot more tutorials to come as well as my previous videos which you should probably check out and thanks for watching this one peace you
