How to Fix This Audio Please.

[Steve Brame]

If your have Premiere, then you probably also have Audition, or at least the now extinct Soundbooth. Both Audition and Soundbooth are far superior to Premiere in audio restoration. Here are some tutorials to get you started.

The Noise Reduction process in Audition can do amazing work at cleaning out the underlying ambient noise from A/C systems, crowd hum, etc. – anything that is fairly constant.

Assuming that you’re trying to remove the excessive reverberation in the church, the process for doing this should be relatively painless.

1) In Premiere Pro, select Edit>Edit in Adobe Audition
2) In audition, find a section where there is silence or where there is just the sample of the room reverberating – the longer the sample, the better.
3) Select it with the time select tool.
4) Effect>Noise Reduction>Noise Reduction (process)
5) capture noise print
6) select entire file
7) Apply

You will have to experiment with the strength and reduction settings and it still may not work out for you. However, this method does produce strong results a lot of the time and is excellent for removing things like HVAC and 60Hz hum.

8) Save the file and/or export the multi-track back to Premiere Pro

Hope this helps,
