    Hi,

    In one of my interviews, a baby starts crying in the background. You can’t hear it too much but it’s annoying. Is there a way, using the FCP audio filters, to isolate and lower this sound? How can I proceed?

    Otherwise, I have Adobe Audition.

    Cheers.

    You might want to give the SoundTrack Pro spectrum analyzer/editor a try. Here’s a tutorial, and it’s explained in teh STP manual. In theory, it allows you to analyze and then erase just the part of the audio spectrum where you problem sound lies. I haven’t actually used it myself, but it worked in a demo I saw.
