    I’m having to take out a horrible fan hum from a scene in a bathroom. I don’t have any high end sound programs, and I’m certainly not a sound engineer. I pulled up the Hum Remover from FCPHD’s effects list and I have the three settings (frequency, Q, Gain) to play with, along with the 1st – 5th harmonics. Can someone give me a quick kindergarden description of how to use these together in getting rid of the hum? I’m just not sure how to begin playing around with these. My manual doesn’t go into it.

    Thanks,
    eric

    I have still yet to mess around with it but they demoed this in soundtrack pro….. cleaned it right up. I am sure someone will chime in wiht the exact method. keep fiddling with the hum remover, often you will learn a new method.

    Found this over on the soundtrack forum…..

    In FCP5 File/Send To/Soundtrack Pro Audio File Project. In Soundtrack Pro highlight a portion of the sound that has no other sound than the ofending hum then Process/Set Noise Print, then Process/ Reduce Noise. Click the checkbox for noise only & move the slider to the left till the voice dissapears. Click Apply then save & return to FCP.
