Hey Peter,

I was not expecting you to actually fix the excerpt, thank you it sounds great. Can you share how you did it, and how I might do it with the tools available to me (Avid MC 6.5, CS6) or any general tips?

Thank you for showing me what is possible, but I’m guessing you used your own set up and are an advanced sound designer. I was just expecting some tips but I appreciate the effort.

[Pieter Viljoen]

I see what you used, sorry for the redundant question.

Hi
You’ll not remedy those problems without specialist tools. Isotope ex is a high end tool for fixing tricky problems and even then I sometimes find it can’t.
Isotope works as a stand alone tool too so you can run it outside whatever you have and re import the files.
It is time consuming tho . ( the best results invariably are)
There is a free demo but you can’t save files. If you’re tellies that won’t be a problem but it costs a few hundred!

How long is your whole interview you need to include.
It’s def true to say its easier to get it right at the recording tho.

Yeah that’s what I wanted to know. This is a quick turn around for something and I wouldn’t devote the time nor the resources to that, but thanks for the education. It is good to know because as an assistant all you ever do is prep tracks for audio mix so I never do it myself.

Thanks so much

Perhaps you use Isotope RX?

Anyway, Audition CS6 (CC is rental software of which I am not a fan) has the Audio Healing Paintbrush which is like the tool in RX and other high end products that allows one to eliminate a particular noise or sound by encircling it or painting it out. Not sure why Adobe has not make more of this. I am not aware of anything else near Audition’s price point that has this capability.

I am not connected to Adobe in any way other than a user of several of the products.

Take it EZ,
