    Yes, there are certainly more precise ways to cut audio. Sometimes it will sound un-natural to cut at a certain point but I prefer to edit by ear and you can always Ctrl + Z if it doesn't sound quite right.

  • @MikeRussell

    Interesting. I agree that cutting out breaths for speech based content (especially news) could sound unnatural. However, for radio imaging, promos and commercials I would say that editing out breaths is an essential post production process. Once you get the audio in the multitrack to complete the mix you can always add a bigger gap to give the right sound.

    It sounds un-natural because there are no pauses. Wouldn't it be better to mute the breaths?

      Depends on what it’s for audiobook no but commercials yes

      Thanks for adding that. Audio editing techniques differ depending on what you're editing so as you say always bear that in mind when editing. Thanks again

    You can remove audio below a certain level. This is known as a 'gate'. I can show you how on my channel if you'd like?

  • @MikeRussell
    @MikeRussell  12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Those settings all look pretty good to me. Try downloading the latest driver for your sound card. If that doesn't work please provide more information and I or a member of this community will help.

    Thank you very much for the informative and helpful content. I am using mac, and I need to remove the breaths and clean between the waves on my VO tracks, but there is no delete button. is there a shortcut or a way to remove the breaths on mac instead of using the drop-down list and choosing silence? Thanks in advance!

    Adobe Audition is the best sound removal and noise tidying tool I know.

  • @MikeRussell
    @MikeRussell  11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Audition has some pretty neat tools for cleaning up musical tracks such as the DeClipper.

  • @MikeRussell
    @MikeRussell  12 ปีที่แล้ว

    It's hard to do well unless you have an instrumental of the track. If you have that you can align the original and instrumental in the multitrack and edit at the correct point.

    • @MikeRussell

      You can use a noise gate to do this. I have a tutorial on my channel Setting A Noise Gate With Laser Accuracy - Adobe Audition CC

    Your welcome:
    Of for some reason some section need steeper curve to silence (let say, break is much longer than curve is programed for), than you simply apply effect 2x or 3x (F3). It will "eat out" the beggining and the end of curve (middle is mute already from the first apply); but smooth again.
    regards.

  • @cdmikelis
    @cdmikelis 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    The best way is to work a breath with envelope where beginning and end of "mute" section is at 100%, than fast curve to 0, and at the end curve again to 100%. Only that way it's natural; not taking time out, not making sudden silence.

  • @sidecarcn
    @sidecarcn 12 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Personally after I heard it with the breaths cut out it didn't sound natural. The best was is who ever is reading needs to breath and not make any noise. I remember years ago when I was at the BBC World Service some American guy cam in showing everyone who to cut other breaths from newscasts and show promos. It just made stuff sound un-natural and off.

    • @MikeRussell
      @MikeRussell  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      If the breaths are significantly quieter than the rest of the audio you could try a noise gate or you could try using Waves DeBreath plug in available at mrc.fm/waves

    Editing out 'breath' pauses is becoming widespread. It has however a big annoying downside.
    'breath pauses' are natural to recorded speech, their removal is disturbing to listen to for the brain,
