Audacity has quite a few tools to remove background noise: Graphic EQ, Noise Reduction, Noise Gate, Click removal, Spectral edit parametric EQ. Also, sometimes you’re required to clean up audio manually and Audacity is perfect for that. You can use Graphic EQ to remove some of the low-end noise. Noise Reduction tool is a useful […]

You can remove music from audio recording using Audacity’s ‘Vocal Reduction and Isolation’ tool. It’s a very capable effect that will remove most of the music from the recording. You might have some music artifacts left, which you can then later further remove with a noise reduction tool if required. Here’s how to remove music

Audacity has a great tool to remove vocals from an audio recording. It’s called Vocal Reduction and Isolation. The process of removing vocals is quite complex and removing them cleanly with no remaining artifacts is a challenge, therefore, expect to lose some collateral audio as well. When applying the effect make sure your audio is

Most of the time echo will make your audio sound muddy, unclear and unpleasant.

Mono audio creates an identical sound in both of your headphone cups while stereo allows playing two distinct audio tracks on each ear. Audacity is capable of turning your mono track into stereo and vice versa. If you wish to have the same sound in both of your ears there’s no reason for going stereo,

You can create a robotic voice in Adobe Audition by multiplying your audio track into three, adding some disparity in their timelines and applying multiple effects such as Chorus, Pitch Shifter and Reverb. The key here is to make it sound like multiple voices speaking at the same time with slight differences. To create Robotic
