I've literally spent the last 2 years trying to guess what the Sensitivity and Frequency Smoothing was because I could never find a clear explanation about it online and you just explain it here so concisely. Honestly feeling way more confident with my sound editing, thank you 🥲
Super duper helpful!!! Thank you!!! But I gotta say I’m going to have “And now I’m talking so we can hear how noise reduction......” stuck in my head all day 😋🤣❤️
I am new to making asmr and I needed more knowledge about noise reduction for my other projects too! I am very happy that I found your channel because it will help my content extremely!
this is a great explanation of audio quality and method to go between two extremes of a sound to find a balance. Thank you for the time you've put in to share this information.
Hi! Do you have any recommendation on what is the best audio recorder for iphone? Beside the voice memo, perhaps you know any other apps that work greater? Thanks🙌
Hey! Way late in answering your question - a whole bunch just popped up that I never saw! Honestly, voice memo is a pretty great recording app. Simple and it works well. You could also try GarageBand!
Dude this is awesome and SUPER helpful, I love it. Thanks so much. Just curious what kind of mic your using for all this? Maybe you mention but I must've missed it. Let me know!!!! Also -- love the idea of doing tutorial videos, I was considering doing a few on my channel for a few N64 related things. Great way to contribute to the community :)
Thank you Ian for taking the time to make another Audacity tutorial. If I/You were making a cheat sheet...would you say that for the Noise Reduction gauge - if you want MORE background noise removed, you go higher on the scale there? And if you want to reduce that tinny sound, you would...reduce the sensitivity -move lower on the scale? Or it genuinely could need to go either direction depending on the starting point? It's beginning to seem like I'll never get past this problem but I keep trying :(😅
Hi! I know this video is a few years old so I'm not sure if you'll see this, but this was SOOO so helpful. My only question is what version of audacity did you use for this?? I have it, but the format looks ancient and this version looks so much cleaner and well put together, not to mention the dark theme is nicer on the eyes. I've looked it up but I can't find any other versions to download!
I'm seeing this! Sorry it's taken me a while to respond. This was version 2.4.2, which was the last version before it was bought out and 3.0 was released. You should still be able to download that version! The theme is selectable in preferences.
I need to get this down because the ASMR content I'm attempting is also a dramatized mix reading for theatrics mingled with ASMR narration. Great video
Thank you for all your videos you're really helpful, if I may ask what do you think about the blue voice settings for the blue yeti (noise reduction, pop, etc...) ? Should I record without them for a better quality at the end or are they fine by default ? I don't know if you will see this message but thanks for everything anyway
In general, no. If you completely remove all noise after capturing a profile, there's a good chance you'll reduce the overall fidelity of all of your audio, but in my experience a little noise reduction doesn't damage the quality of trigger sounds.
Hey man, I hope you are doing well. I would really appreciate your help with something. I am looking to start ASMR and I am looking for a budget usb mic. I am thinking either the Boya pm700 or the AKG Lyra. What would you recommend, thank you 🙏🏼
@@ASMRTutorialsForYou thank you so much for taking the time to respond to me, appreciate it. Unfortunately in South Africa the Blue Yeti is not available, and is very expensive to get a hold of. I can get the Lyra for half the price. Perhaps I should go for the Lyra as a starting mic? I can always aim to invest in a more expensive Yeti in the future? Thank you again
@@ASMRTutorialsForYou bless you man, thank you for the help. I will be ordering the Lyra as it is at a crazy good price. Also, Well done on your amazing channel. All the best
That's a little more difficult. It can certainly be done (I do it when I livestream). I'll make a point to record a tutorial. For now - you'll need a DAW with real time non-destructive editing like Reaper, FL Studio, Studio One, etc and virtual cabling. Your audio should go from the mic into the DAW first, where the noise reduction tool is on the track, then the output of the DAW goes to OBS using the virtual cable. I use Izotope RX or Waves W43 for noise reduction and Loopback for my virtual cable.
Dogs barking is a whole other problem to solve, but if you use RX Editor by iZotope you should be able to eliminate the barks. It's just time consuming, not to mention you need to learn how to use RX Editor.
Hey Tristen! I saw your comment here and one Audacity 101. Removing mic self-noise and room noise is the same process: record about 30 seconds of just the room you're in. Be as quiet as possible. Use that profile for the noise reduction tool.
@@ASMRTutorialsForYou thanks! It turns out it was an interference thing with electricity. It was beeping like a Morse code thing. Since I'm going towards asmr, i dont want this thing bothering me at all. So I bout those little magnetic clips that you find on adapter chargers for laptops. Hopefully this will fix the issue as with new people starting, it's all rigged up lol. But thank you regardless I learned very much from this video as well!
Oh no! Hahaha. Well, at least we know that won't work now. A new USB cable should do the trick, then. If not, you've got something near the mic putting out a STRONG wireless signal.

So glad you found this useful!
Ty for this! I’m a visual person so this is way better than reading your instructions on the group chat!! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

I'm so glad to hear that!! Always feel free to comment or DM me on Twitter (@beardedasmr) with any questions.
this is a great explanation of audio quality and method to go between two extremes of a sound to find a balance. Thank you for the time you've put in to share this information.
You're welcome! Thanks for your kind words.
That was so helpful. Showing how each control setting changed the sound quality and explaining as you did it was a great way to teach this.
Good! I'm glad you found it helpful ☺️
It was so ultra helpful! I used to play with the sliders without really knowing what I do, hopefully now my sounds will get better! Thank you!
Had no idea that residue button was there. That's going to be so helpful! Thank you!!!
thank you so much for this !! so helpful
omg sooo excited about this channel! great idea 🥰
I feel This video is a lifesaver! Thank you so kindly for sharing this.
You're welcome!!
Thanks for another great tute, Ian!
This was great at explaining how to do noise reduction in audacity. Thank you Ian 😊
Great tutorial! Will be adding this to post process. Thank you bro!
omg this tutorial gave me tingles!!!!!!!🥰
You get to learn and be relaxed at the same time. 🤘🏼😴🤘🏼

I would record it raw and do the corrections in an editor!
@@ASMRTutorialsForYou Thank you very much once more !
Super helpful! I wonder what you think of adobe audition? Just recently got it and wonder if it's better than audacity..or essentially the same 😊
I just saw your other comment about Reaper - for the record, I would say it's better in many ways
@@ASMRTutorialsForYou Thanks!
How about ASMR sound effects like different triggers, aren't they gonna be reduced using this method?
In general, no. If you completely remove all noise after capturing a profile, there's a good chance you'll reduce the overall fidelity of all of your audio, but in my experience a little noise reduction doesn't damage the quality of trigger sounds.

New here. Is this an audio Asmr or a video? lol sorry I don’t know much about all of this.
This is for audio editing! Let me know if you have any questions in your ASMR journey :)
can u tell me the name of the tool ur using the last video? the other option u said. help pls
Yeah! It's voice de-noise, RX7 by Izotope. They're on version RX9 now. Using it in the audio editor called Reaper.
is there a way to reduce noise in obs? i wanted to livestream it
That's a little more difficult. It can certainly be done (I do it when I livestream). I'll make a point to record a tutorial. For now - you'll need a DAW with real time non-destructive editing like Reaper, FL Studio, Studio One, etc and virtual cabling.

I use Izotope RX or Waves W43 for noise reduction and Loopback for my virtual cable.
@@ASMRTutorialsForYou thank you! I'll try that, really helpful
dang it it doesnt work for me. the dogs' barking sound still can be heard! ugh i hate my life
Dogs barking is a whole other problem to solve, but if you use RX Editor by iZotope you should be able to eliminate the barks. It's just time consuming, not to mention you need to learn how to use RX Editor.
how do I add it to the whole audio
Hey there! You can add to it whatever audio you select. The fastest way to select all is ctrl+A on a PC or cmd+A on a Mac.
I use GarageBand but I can imagine it's the same principle
I haven’t checked to see if there’s noise reduction in GarageBand. Let me know!
i just want to get rid of the in mic noise that comes from the yeti
Hey Tristen! I saw your comment here and one Audacity 101. Removing mic self-noise and room noise is the same process: record about 30 seconds of just the room you're in. Be as quiet as possible. Use that profile for the noise reduction tool.

I hope that works for you! Usually electric interference is solved with a new USB cable. Let me know if the magnets work for you!
@@ASMRTutorialsForYou they did not lol
Oh no! Hahaha. Well, at least we know that won't work now. A new USB cable should do the trick, then. If not, you've got something near the mic putting out a STRONG wireless signal.
Can u pls tell me ...the name of the tool you r using ?
It's called Audacity and the plugin is the noise reduction tool.
@@ASMRTutorialsForYou thanks a lot ..it was really helpful to me
Wow! Very in depth 🤯! I learned quite a few things here. Thank you @shivermetingles for linking me this video.
Thanks for checking it out!
