    There are some filters you can try in the ‘eq-tool’. Located under fast menu in the eq tool. Also some manual filtering can do the job, with the eq tool

    for something like this, I use a audio edit program such as Adobe Audition. using the noise reduction feature, make a “noise profile” of just the fan noise.

    1. export wav & import into audio app.
    2. in Audition, you only need to select 1/2 a second minimum of just the noise you want to remove from the wav you imported.
    3. select “make noise profile from selection” & then save that profile.
    4. don’t apply yet but close “noise reduction” filter after saving the profile.
    5. select the entire wav then re-open the noise reduction filter
    6. load the noise profile you saved earlier.
    7. process with that profile tweaking as desired.
    8. save processed wav. done!
