    For newer versions of Audacity, the Leveler is actually Distorsion > Distorsion then Distorsion Type: Leveler

    Using 3 or 4 layers of noise reduction will almost certainly ruin your audio quality even with bass boost I highly recommend NOT doing this without backing up your files first to make sure you don't create a mess...

    • @sentimentaloldme
      @sentimentaloldme 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      I agree...especially for vocals...Best is to highlight each breath sound and apply the above effect with very subdued settings...Have you ever listened to someone singing or speaking with no breath sounds...it sounds weird...

    Really thank you! It took me 2 hours to cut out all my breathing from 1 hour podcast by marking them manually and replacing them by silence :). Masacre! I used everytime noise reduction for removing outdoor recording noise (did amazing job on waterfall sound in my podcast) now I will use it for my breathing and clicking sounds :). Thanks man, thanks so much :)!

    The problem with this method is that it distorts the quality of the audio.

    too much Noise reduction destroys the audio -- why didn't you play the sound at the end so we could hear the difference? sigh --- you knew what would happen didn't you

    • @jframp7250
      @jframp7250 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yes, that's true but he only reduced it, which when I do to mine still sounds fine, he even says at the end of the video that you still want to hear the person breathing

    This is a great video, but due to its age some of the selections have changed, I have created a list below:
    For the Leveler
    Effect -> Distorsion > Distorsion then Distorsion Type: Leveler
    For Compressor
    Effect -> Volume and Compression -> Compressor
    For Noise Reduction
    Effect -> Noise Repair & Removal -> Noise Reduction
    For Equalization/Bass Boost
    Effect > EQ and Filters -> Filter Curve EQ (select Bass boost)
    For Normalize
    Effect -> Volume and Compression -> Normalize

  • @StoriesAndMorePODCAST
    @StoriesAndMorePODCAST ปีที่แล้ว +2

    It works! Thank you for the advice! To be honest it seems to damper down the rest of my clip also. The audio is still there, but it seems 'eared' a bit by running this function from Audacity.

    First off, thank you for this video! I used the technique and the breaths did indeed go away. Unfortunately, the whole audio sounds really "off" after doing so. It's like the richness of my voice is gone and I sound like I'm doing my podcast from a cell phone or something. I'll keep looking for a solution! Good luck everyone!

  • @TheGreenLing
    @TheGreenLing 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Really good job, Loved this video. I avoided removing any breath sounds because I was worried it would make the audio sound choppy, but this works flawlessly. Really good video!

  • @TvAddictCanada
    @TvAddictCanada 3 ปีที่แล้ว +13

    I did what you said in this video, and the sound turned out horrible. I think I might of removed to much breath sounds that it affected the general audio and the base boost did not help. So I just took out less and did not use the bass boost and the sound was awesome.

    • @sentimentaloldme
      @sentimentaloldme 2 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      I agree...I used to use Noise Removal Effect on my vocals...no matter what setting you use it deteriorates the quality of the audio file and especially vocals. There are two alternatives and they involve a bit of work especially if it's a long recording. Remember before you start... "breath sounds" are a natural sound when you record vocals...Taking a breath sound off completely sounds weird on a recording. (1) Highlight each breath sound individually and go to the Amplify effect & test what amount you want to reduce the sound & repeat for all the others. It's not difficult to do if you're recording is less than 4 or 5 minutes long. (2) The other and probably more effective is to apply the above procedure but only highlight each breath sound you want want the effect to apply to.. I've been using Audacity for over ten years...The best & most important effect right now is Loudness Normalization (LUFS) which should be applied when all other effects have been done. This effect ensures that your Audio is at the correct levels when you upload to TH-cam. I use -14dB LUFS setting. You can check your audio levels afterwards on TH-cam by right clicking on the video and going to "Stats For Nerds"..and going to the third column down. This will tell you how much your levels have been reduced by TH-cam or should be increased to get to get the levels right. Remember TH-cam will decrease your audio to their standard levels no matter how much you amplify on Audacity but will *NOT* increase the levels if the audio is too low.

  • @Renegade_Minds

    Whenever I apply "Noise Reduction" to an entire track, it changes the quality to sounding like I recorded inside a tin can. I have yet to find someone who can address this issue.

  • @artityagi5538
    @artityagi5538 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    This is great! However my breathing noise did sort of come back after enhancing bass and the normalization part so I did another round of noise reduction.

  • @brennyC
    @brennyC ปีที่แล้ว +3

    It is NOT the correct method to remove "unwanted" breath. Every time the noise reduction process is repeated, the quality of the audio will be affected. I usually keep it mellow. This will actually give the listener a good feeling, especially if it is a female voice.

  • @number3stunner118
    @number3stunner118 3 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    After watching this video and trying it, I noticed that Audacity has the shortcut up top to Repeat Noise Reduction after having done it the first time. So you can just do that on the part that's highlighted - if you're reducing one noise at a time.

    • @misterhowto4497
      @misterhowto4497  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      You can also use keyboard shortcuts as well to speed it up. But doing that throughout a very long audio makes fingers tired :)

    Remember that every time you use the Noise Reduction in Audacity, you are running processing over your whole track (and degrading the audio each time) that much more.

  • @angreeee
    @angreeee 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    this is not the best method as it affects the quality of the sound too much. the best video is from some foreign guy named "Automatically Remove Breathing from Audios, Podcasts or Videos" that used auto duck besides nosie reduction. Try that instead and compare results.

    Don't do this. Seriously, this is waaaay overprocessing the audio. Either lower the gain on the breath or cut it out and add silence from another part in the track to fill the gap.
