Noise Reduction Workflow For Vocal & Voice-Over

Hello, my friends! Over the past few months, I've received a great number of questions (through the blog or via Twitter) with regard to audio post-production techniques. Largely, they've dealt with the basics (ie, noise reduction, hum removal, hiss reduction, pop removal, normalization) and as such, I decided to re-edit some of our Short & Suite episodes from AdobeTV, creating short training movies for each specific workflow in question.

I'm going to attempt going thru the entire first season and 'cherry pick' some of the highlight workflow features, largely based on the questions I've received. Here's a 5 minute tutorial (from Short & Suite, Episode 1) on removing hum/noise from a vocal or voice-over using the Spectral Frequency Display and Audition 3's unique Noise Reduction filter...

Please let me know your thoughts on this concept. Naturally, if you want to see more (as well as the entire video creation process with my colleague Karl Soule) be sure to tune in to the full episodes on Adobe TV.

Here's a direct link to Short & Suite, Episode 1

In the meantime, I'll be continuing to cut-up and produce even shorter and sweeter edits from the series, in an effort to get the information to you quickly and concisely.

Until next time,

Blog on.

Hi Jason!
This is a really wonderful tutorial. Concise with no filler. Just from watching this short movie, my noise reduction skills have vastly improved.

Great stuff and please keep them coming. We'll keep watching.
