Using iZotope RX 8 De-Click to remove pick noise from acoustic guitar recording
Переглядів 5742 місяці тому
I've been using an old version of iZotope RX De-Click to get rid of mouth noise, so I figured I'd have a play to see how it coped with pick noises. This is a Molly Tuttle picking pattern (kinda) from White Freightliner, and I thought the pick chirp would be more dominant in the recording, but it's pretty subtle. Regardless, I stuck De-Click on it, and it did a decent job of getting rid of the c...

I'm faced with a choice between Martin D28 standard or D28 street legend, and Martin D37 standard. Tell me which of these Martins will sound better? it’s worth overpaying for d35, it’s not much more expensive than D28
If you can, play them! I bought both my Martins used -- and only after I played them for a good while. I was happy to pay 'a lot' for the D-41 because it sounded *amazing* and played like butter. My D-35 was more of a bargain because it's a bit banged up, but I live with that because it sounds/plays amazing too
Thanks for this! Ultex is the truth
Very nice 👍
If you're playing at a cafe people would say both guitars sound beautiful. But, when you compare the two side by side you can clearly hear that the D41 is a higher quality instrument.
Beautifully Done!
Gorgeous sound awesome work!
If you did a blind comparison you couldn't tell any difference. ;)
Great effort Tom really enjoyed it ? You’re a really good player and that’s a great sounding D35 . One day I’ll get one myself I think . I love Carl’s pieces on NAG guys a freak of nature.
The strummed chords at the end sound so nice de-clicked but I kinda like the original audio? Have you done any other mixing & fx or is it just a nice guitar+mic combo?
light compressor (mainly cos those chords are louder than the picking!), slight eq (just high-pass at 60hz). Helps that the guitar and mics are great and sound good with no fx etc!
Very interesting Tom. In the past I've just recorded the pick click and then used noise reduction that seemed to work but probably not as effective as this.
Yeah - I've only used eq before, and this does a better job than that
Nice
Excellent well done beautiful sound & beautifully played next time smile you earned it.
came for the comparison, stayed for the beautiful playing!
This is good. Are you reading it for this?
yeah - it's a side project. I should have set up a different youtube channel for it, I didn't fully realise that adding a 'podcast' to my channel would be handled in this way!
Sounds great...I use Elixir PBs on all my guitars...I keep a record of changes and for the most part I go 1.5-2 years on these before hearing any need to change :)
Light years ahead of me though. Good work. And a nice recording as well.
I always thought that the D35 sounds a bit muddy, my D41 sings with outstanding clarity and balanced output.
If.anyone can tell me is the 'b-omvadt' is that the refrence for the carl miner version? On his channel?
It's a ref to the carl video on the TNAG channel - I think if you search for 'bourgeois om v' you'll find it!
I have the same Eastman E10 OO and can hardly believe how good it sounds for such an economical guitar. I bought mine because I also like to play classical, so the clunky neck and 12 fret design is more similar to classical guitars than those with 14 fret design with thin necks. Both suit my clunky wide hands. By the way, what is the Carl Miner tune you're playing? It's very relaxing and soothing.
Thanks! Yes - a good guitar if you're used to 2inch classical necks! This is the tune Carl played when demoing a Martin HD 28p on TNAG channel (if you search that, you should find it!)
@@tdlw Thanks for the pointer, I really like that style of playing. I have to admit that I hadn't heard of Carl Miner, so I started digging and saw an interview with him: ua-cam.com/video/jXej1zgVLvY/v-deo.htmlsi=Y_9W6UfxC7oCNG2q&t=25. He confirms that he basically makes these tunes up on the fly to demonstrate guitars for TNAG. Anyway, that is a style I aspire to learning to play.
Lord man, I can’t come close to making up my mind of which I like best lol. Great job!
That guitar sounds nice
I just started using D'Addario XS strings. I don't expect them to last 18 months, but I hope they a bit longer than the phosphor bronze strings I was using. How many hours of playing time do you have on the strings?
good question, and one that's hard to answer because I rotate through my guitars when I practise. I'm guessing between 100 and 200 hours playing (might be a bunch more). Enough that the wound strings are looking 'dark and hairy' where I pick 'em. I remember that after about 3 months I was gonna change them as they'd gone pretty dull, but I figured they were holding their tune so I'd leave 'em on. I've tried the D'Addario XS - but I didn't like the feel of them under my fingers.
I've had my XS strings on my Martin for waaaayyy longer than I thought... probably over a year now...AND they still sound fine.
If they ain't broke...
Such wonderful playing Tom, and nice D35. I finally got one of his tunes down, whatever it was from the McPherson Sable demo he did. I personally didn't find it super difficult, which surprised me. Maybe it is just because I've been also trying to get a Tommy Emmanuel song under my fingers for literally a decade now and still just don't have it (not in a way I'd comfortably play it in front of others anyway).
Thanks! It's such a big difference between playing-for-practise and playing-in-front-of-others! That's why I really like making these vids -- tryna get it right all the way through from a recording feels just a little bit like playing for a crowd.
Oh, and I did a little 'breakdown' of a couple of the harder licks in the song at the end
Im ready to order the D35 tomorrow but when I heard this video makes me want the D41, you think the $2k price difference worth it for the D41? I was trying to find the difference and the only difference I can see is just cosmetic, that abalone and neck, is another better difference on construction, that makes this guitar sounds better? Thanks
Been playing D41 and D35 a lot this week - and I love them both! My two feel very similar in the hand, which is one of the reasons I bought the 35, because it plays almost as well as the 41 - in fact the 35's neck is slightly easier for me to get my left thumb round. The sonic differences come from the 35's 3-piece back. If I wanted a strummer, I'd reach for the 35. For single-note melody stuff, the 41's got more sweetness too it. I'm not a huge fan of the 41's 'bling' - but I don't mind it either; if I coulda bought the same guitar plain, without the abalone, I probly woulda.
@@tdlw thanks!! 👍
Hi! What strings are you using?
Elixir PB 12s
High-shouldered 00s always sound the best. Very very nice tone!
Theres a reason why these tunes were made for violin. Greay playing tho'
I used the ultex 1.0 for a good while. Then I used the Dunlop 1.0 nylon grip picks until I got a blue chip pick. I’m sticking with that for now until something else comes along better.
I want that Hoffman if it ever becomes in the wild again. Great playing
The first guitar is more balanced to my ear
Nice! I’ve been working on this one but have not gotten as far as you have. Well done!
Does martin worth such a huge money 😮
The D35 sounds brighter while the D41 sounds warmer. The D41 sounds like a well aged guitar.
Carl is amazing. Good job.
Sounds great Tom....is that just another of Carl's improvs? Also, do you learn these just by listening to the vids over and over, or do you have any other tricks? Carl is a real master!
Yeah - another Carl improv. I just learn using the videos - slowing them down to see what he's doing. It's a bit of a drag, but useful as I'm trying to improve technique as I go
Appreciate it Tom - keep it up!@@tdlw
Sounds amazing! are you in an alternate tuning?
Thx! No - in standard for this - but Carl really knows how to get the most out of open strings in his pieces!
Once I pick up and play an American made Martin they all sound good to me. I recently bought a 000-18 and while shopping I played a D41 and a D45. The store didn't have a D-35, so I've never played one of those, but the 000-18 I purchased sounded just as good to me as the D41 and it has a shorter scale length which I really like. They just make great guitars. Now, once you drop down to the Road Series and others that are made in Mexico there is definitely a big difference in sound. There are a few that I can't believe Martin puts their name on, but when it comes to the American made ones they are just unbeatable in my opinion. I've owned Taylor, Blueridge, Epiphone, and Takamine, and they don't stack up to a Martin. I do have an Alvarez that has a wonderful sound, but it's a different sound than my 000-18.
What is the name of this tune, please?
Very good sound and player
Beautiful
Playing guitar is fun and you are very good at it. Noice!
D-35
Such an interesting video. I have a 2001 D45, which sounds very much like the D41 here: perhaps even more shimmery. I also have a 1967 Brazilian Rosewood D28. If I A-B that with my D45, the D45 sounds weak... Weird stuff
beautiful musical playing guysI have a Fretless Washburn like that but I have feedback problems when i play with a band
Thanks! Yeah - we've not done anything 'loud' with the AB20- just duo with two busking-type amps. If we ever do band stuff again, bro will either play a fender, or his double bass I reckon
How do u feel those honey picks tone and pick noise different with material and thickness?
the thicker honey pick (2mm) is both 'softer' and bassier than the 1.5mm one. I like the feel of both in the hand, but they do both have a pick noise (chirp) that's a bit annoying when recording. The 1.5mm honey pick has been my go-to pick to practise with for periods of time (I like the grip and it's nice on the strings), but when I record I often use a different pick. I've been using a blue chip (expensive!) and some wegen picks recently too!
The d 35 has a more mellow and deeper tone ,both nice 😂😂😊
Hi Tom, very clean, very impressed. I'm working this tune too, nowhere near your level yet. Work that 'F', get some skin on the low E string and the thumb will soon callus up .. cheers pal ! Super rendition !
That's a very good 35, but I suspect that's an exceptional 41. I've played a bunch of acoustics and not seen any as across the board solid as that one.
