Activity Forums Adobe Premiere Pro Horrific Static Throughout Entire Audio Recording

  • Horrific Static Throughout Entire Audio Recording

    Posted by Jamie Koseluk on August 15, 2016 at 7:17 pm

    Okay, so I am relatively new to audio editing. I just filmed a wedding and I purchased a new wireless mic for the ceremony. Upon reviewing the footage, the entire clip is completely ruined with static. The audio can be heard if you increase the volume levels a crazy amount, but thus increases the static volume as well.

    I obviously can’t re-record it, that’s not an option. I have tried searching this topic non stop for hours with no luck. Is there any program, Adobe or otherwise, that can fix this crazy static issue? The static is throughout the whole clip so it’s very difficult to pick a spot to “fix.” I know it won’t be perfect, but I at least want to hear the vocals or else the entire ceremony is ruined 🙁 Any suggestions at all, please??

    Any and all advice is appreciated. If it cannot be fixed, can I at least get some advice on what to do in the future?

    The iZotope RX plug-in also provide very good noise reduction.

    Good luck,

    Dave, I remember at one time I could sample a silent segment of an audio clip so that I’m only sampling the noise, and then apply the filter to the entire clip, but now (and not just the latest Prelude but the previous version which used to work fine) if I apply to the entire clip it hardly cleans the noise at all. It will only do a great job if I apply it to the segment that I sampled. I know there are two ways of cleaning noise, but neither of them are working like it used to. I tried the step by step instructions someone gave here a few months ago (you, possibly) but I still got the same result.

    Any new advice you can give me? None of the youtube tutorials clean the whole track. It’s either just the sampled segment, or a bad job on the entire track.

    Sorry Dave, I meant Audition. So you’re saying to export the audio first, then import into Audition rather than use the import option inside Premiere Pro. I’ll give it a shot. Never had to do it that way before, though.
