  Can someone explain the workflow with Izotope RX2

  Posted by Ron Whitaker on March 18, 2013 at 11:45 pm

  Can someone explain the whole process they’d use to get rid of background hums with Izotope RX2?

  I’ve tried the trial version and if there’s some hum at the beginning of the file, I’ll have Izoptope “learn” the hum sound and it does an excellent job getting rid of it once I click the Process button.

  But, after that, if I highlight the entire sound file, then click Process again, all it does it take the entire audio, including the person talking, down to a muffled, inaudible level. The audio file is useless at that point.

  What am I doing wrong?

  No, no, no,…You dont click the process button after you
  allow RX to learn the Hum. After it learns it, disable Learn
  and THEN highlight the entire track and click process.

  In certain host, you close it after it learns, then reopen it then
  highlight the entire track, then you process.

  Ok. I think I got it!

  I actually watched a quick tutorial online and this English guy used the Denoise feature.

  I followed his steps and it works beautifully!

  No more hum in the background!

  So, how much does Izoptope RX2 cost? Any good deals out there?

  Hum Removal module is just a set of notch filters. If they muffle your audio too much, make sure that their frequencies and Qs are set correctly. Perhaps your Q is too low and filters cut too much material around the hum. In many cases, use of the Denoiser module is more justified for hum removal, as its adaptive filters can sense the presence of speech and accordingly control the amount of reduction.
