  • Getting rid of background AC “humming”

    Posted by Scott Sullivan on May 31, 2013 at 6:13 pm

    Hi
    Any ideas on the best way to do this in Vegas? My audio picked up a slight “hum” from the AC running in the background.

    Thanks
    Scott

    Turn the AC off before you shoot

    Thanks but of course I need a “post” solution now.

    You’ll probably need to purchase a noise reduction plug-in because AC noise is a broad spectrum and can’t be EQ’d out easily. iZotope RX2 is the best plug-in for this. Sony Noise Reduction will also do. BIAS Sound Soap 2 may still be sold by Avid after BIAS went out of business but it would also do a good job on this type of noise.

    I use three, Sony noise reduction, Izotope RX and Waves plug-ins…all work well…
