Man, you are truly a king taking care of his people. I can't thank you enough for all of your work in these UA-cam channel. Keep it up. Again, I'm truly truly truly grateful. Thanks
Every time I watch ur videos Michael, I'm lost, untill that "aha!" moment apears. Thanks for yet another super helpful video, i really appreciate your help! - I would love to see you doing a beat some time. Would be awesome with a "In The Mix, producing a beat" video. Wish you the best, stay at it buddy! 🙏😁
Wow, an audio guy who actually mikes himself properly and then treats his own voice well before pressing publish. Brilliant - I've just come from two or three REALLY noisy tutorials about how to reduce noise. The explanation of noise gates is incredibly useful. Great for live, not much use in the studio. Thank you Michael. Uh-oh, clipping an distortion around 4:40.
I've also used noise gates occasionally for if I have a sample that's really transient heavy like a drum loop, but either has too much reverb or the wrong kind of reverb baked into the sample. I'll set the threshold just above the reverb tail and give it a pretty gentle release, usually works pretty well at removing or at least shortening reverb.
I think he's still a bit awkward talking alone to a camera. Which is why the rest of his face looks so static while his eyebrows are to honest not to move. I'm probably wrong tho.
Great explanation of noise gate vs noise reduction. Obviously, you're focusing on music production, where noise gating is used to eliminate mic bleed and feedback. However, the gate is also extremely useful for voice over and podcast when there are long pauses between dialogue, breaths, and other noises. For example, audio books require room tone ceiling at -62 db, which is pretty much dead silence (unless you've got your earphones/buds fully cranked up). Good time for the noise gate to cut out everything until it hears your desired RMS, which you've determined in Audition or another DAW.
You made this video just at the right moment. I just bought a sound card today so that I can use an electret condenser mic I made few years ago. It sounds pretty good but there's a little bit too much noise.
Most people have a really noisy room. Especially streamers either don't bother doing exstensive sound treatments on their room, or they simply can't do that, because they don't have a spare room to use for it. The same is true for most podcasters. This is the first issue you have to think about if talking about why people prefer noise gates nowadays. The second one is sound compression. Before i can come to what i mean, take my use case as an example. I am a hobbyist streamer, streaming from my home office. Two of the walls are covered with DVD / Blu-Ray Shelves, full of them. We have two tower PCs running in here, not even especially loud ones, but definitely audible on the microphone. With my dynamic big diaphragm microphone with a cardioid pickup pattern and the noise sources in the dead zones of the pattern, at a talking distance of ~2 inches (~5 cm) i can manage one of the following: Either, i set the gain on the interface, so my voice at normal speaking is at -10dB. Or i set the gain to have a normal speaking level of -18dB and turn it up in post to have -10dB once more, but with a bigger headroom for my voice. What ever choise I make, i end up with a noise floor of -60dB. Sadly, this is pretty much an ideal case. Most people don't want to start using their microphones correctly - that is: They want the microphone as far away as they can dare. But going for my use case as an example: Only going for 10 cm (or 4 inches) distance for the microphone, I get a noise floor of -50 dB with traffic noise from the outside going up to -46 dB. If i go for a distance of 20 cm to the microphone, the noise floor is elevated to a horrible -40dB And by experience of trying to help other streamers with their microphone sound, i know, this is a realistic use case. (not for me, but for enough other streamers) If I try to reduce noise that high, any free noise reduction VST plugin will brutally murder my voice. Which is to be expected, the way noise reduction works. And knowing the issues i have running noise reduction plugins in general inside of OBS or the Equalizer APO, I know, it is far from guaranteed, professionally usable plugins would even work in there. Also, they tend to add a significant ammount of delay to the sound, which is a major pain, if you want to monitor all of your streams sounds at the same time. You will probably end up getting stalled by the combined delay of all audio buffers in place, even if you find a noise reduction plugin, that gives you decent results under the circumstances explained. So why do you actually hear claims about noise gates being the better solution everywhere? Because most people end up using gates, as noise reduction software just doesn't give you acceptable results, quality-wise, unless you pay for something decent, and because of the software those plugins would be expected wo work with.
I think any amateur recording can benefit from a plugin like X-Noise. I dont have alot of noise in my recordings but they sound anyways so much better when i have it on top of the chain with the right not too aggressive settings.
I learned noise reduction first. I just tried using noise gate (saw it in another video) and couldn't understand why there was so much static and noise doing my voice. Thanks for this explanation!
excellent explanations. thanks. i am so glad you clarified when to use noise gate: i mostly record my instruments in the large empty room i have as my studio (which is NOY soundproofed, and is on a street with quite a bit of traffic: in Indian cities, that is the case pretty much as EVERYwhere!), and i was wondering why i was hearing myself so loud in the room (on a tin whistle at 1:00 am!) but the recording was so low! the imac’s mic and my lavalier mics were giving completely different results. i think it was because of my use of Noise Gate with a high threshold: mistaking precisely what you pointed out: it listens, and cuts off everything below a Level, and Boosts everything ELSE, regardless of the frequencies! since i was playing very low decibel, and low pitched notes on a BFlat TinWhistle (which by itself is very ‘airy’ literally AND figuratively), and long extended notes to get Clarity in microtones between BFlat and C! i finally see how the same pitch when i sing, is so differently recorded by the mics, and treated by ‘noise’ reduction/gate software. i guess there is no substitute to getting the recording at the BEST volume possible in the room, at which there is the least room resonance (which as a Baritone i use a lot in live performances). thanks a ton. it would really help if you could have some cations/labels. especially when you are pointing out subtleties like below 50 and 50-100. unfortunately for me, most of my voice falls in that category upto about 1600. with sinuses and humidity, this range is so difficult to record with any level of fidelity…
i can help you with captions, labels, markups etc. so that it is easy to follow you (in that small square, with your hands cut off!) and figuring out your accent!, AND looking at tiny golden yellow speckles of dust appear and disappear magically in the ‘nosiy’ color range. as a Visual Designer and Calligrapher, your audio explanations are EASIER to understand, and apply, when i Add COLOR to tour aural explanations. i think this might help a lot of people who find working with tiny buttons and switches on their DAW, when they should really do this in analog at Recording and PreProduction time. i found that using a pair of Lavaliers, AND a Shotgun simultaneously, with a bluetooth/wired headphones attached mic, gives such clear recordings at such low volumes (like softly exhaling through a Fipple flute or Recorder. or even a Chanter of the BagPipes… and certainly my diatonic Blues harps!
I like using this vintage reverb and delay, but when nothing is playing there is noise. It's practically infinitely silent, but if you normalize audio that is quiet it can pick up or if you use a spectrum visualizer it shows up. I use a noise gate at the end of those chains, but even after it's still there. Is there a noise gate out there that will mute audio completely not just turn it down a lot?
I love your tutorials, thank you so much! I would love it, if you would make tutorial about how you can hear and solve the problem of sounds clashing with eachother.
yeeeeeeesssss, the thing I'm looking for the most, I've recently tried recording vocals and as i listen to it, im really hearing some sort of white noise and this just clarifies everything, thanks for this video, really appreciate it
Outstanding tutorial!!!! Deserves waaay more than just one thumbs up!! 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽... Only question is would it be prudent and beneficial to apply the noise reduction AND noise gate in order to produce a pretty almost FLAWLESS recording??
Great, simple video. Toward the end there you seem to indicate that the noise will exist during the recording process, regardless. So, you're saying that noise reduction is something to be processed after recording, or can it be done during the recording process?
I have always understood Noise Gating as closing a gate, just like your live vocal recording example or guitar and amp. So when your guitar is not playing, as you said, the gate closes and any noise doesn't get through in between. For me, the word Gate in the title is a dead giveaway. :)
you should make an online course, like PML. Thing is I didn't buy theirs becuase it was too simple and more for begginers. I think your audience is more intermediate, and your videos have helped me far more. I'd pay for that intermediate course!
The focus should be applied to what he is showing you which is ["How to remove Various Types of Noise"] from an Audio Feed or Track. Talking about his eyebrows is irrelevant, and has nothing to do with the subject matter. Great vid Mike keep up the good work!
Permit me to disagree a bit. The noise gate helps you set a threshold on the levels of signals you want to allow through. If you set a noise gate to take off everything below -34, it takes it off even those in the original recording.
I use de-noise feature in Audacity to reduce background noise in dialog here in Saigon .. I never tried a noise gate before and was curious about their function. Thanks for the information, am sure it applies to dialog as well as music. Cheers.
software i use a lot to get rid of background noise is called 'audacity'. completely free and pretty easy to use in my opinion. just incase someone is interested :) lemme know if someone needs help with removing background noise :)
@@zdrkp I to be honest don't know a lot about all the things you can do with it cuz i only use it to record and remove the noise from my recordings. but so far i know you can do some pretty usefull stuff The main thing is recording your mic. and you can edit that recording by cutting, pasting. it has different effects like fade in/out, pitch and tempo changing stuff like that and the most usefull effect (to me) is the noise removal you can also listen to your recording while making a new recording at the same time which is pretty usefull too when you for example wanna add a second guitar to your first guitar recording I hope the information is clear enough :)
great tutorial, I really want to try your method, but I'm not Using FL Studio, I believe the Edison Plugin only works on FL. can you make noise reduction tutorial using RX izotope or other universal plugin? thank u
How do I choose Noise Gate threshold and level reduction numbers if I am not trying to get rid of any noise necessarily but to set volume levels more even and make my compression and limiter effect apply easier. I am hearing noise gate makes those two much more better.
Appreciate your vids...been mixing for 40 years but everyday is an opportunity to learn...which leads to my question...when using eg RX for removal...have you ever done a phase check? Ie like when everyone uses hp filtering and it clouds the upper harmonic phasing but no one talks about it? Might be helpful, especially for newbs to show a little history of gates eg on a console etc and how even basic tools like a gate did wonders on even eg 70s records when they first really hit the ground in a big way
You can de-noise pretty easily in audacity. Not sure if there's a way to do it in Edison or not. I usually just drag the audio into audacity, do it there then bring it back to FL.
Hey bro, i have a noise floor of -38db. Now im confused whether gating that amount of noise will be be better or shhould i denoise (by compensating the clarity a.k.a high end of the audio)??. Because i definitely can feel the lose of clarity by denoising
Wouldn't the best method for the studio actually be using some kind of noise reduction and then using a noise gate on top of it? Noise reduction is not perfect, so you still get some noise in the background if you compress those vocals even if the vocals itself are silent, and noise reduction would eliminate that background noise. Am i wrong? Is there something i missed?
Would you say the juice isn’t worth the squeeze using a gate to reduce breath sounds? For my podcast, I’ve been applying the default Audacity noise reduction prior to importing to Fairlight for edits and adjustments. Solo podcast SM58 to Zoom Podtrak P4
Hey Michael, awesome videos you post, I've learnt sooooo much from your channel, been here since 100k subs. I've wanted to know, if I have a channel where I remake instrumentals from a song and title it with the song name, will it be flagged by UA-cam?
Is there a way to do in Ableton live what you did in fl studio? With the noise profile tool to remove noise, like in the other video? Or have I missed something obvious 😳 newbie here. Also love your tutorials thanks for making them!
Your voice the guitar the noise all of it 🤣😭😂. I was very civilized way of saying: once we crack this one right here open you're recording is going to hell in the hand basket homie. 😂😭🤣
@@alejandroperez-ry7vn I'm going to try a noise reduction plugin tomorrow someone mentioned from here: klevgrand.se/products/brusfri Maybe it would work for you too. I think they have a demo.
Hey micheal how could i use distortion on my bass while its sidechained with the Kick without the uneeded fuzzy sound ? Also without it clipping ? Also with using buses

Do you have control over your eyebrows or do they just move completely on their own accord
Waay too much dynamics on those eyebrows. He needs some heavy compression on those buggers...
I think he's still a bit awkward talking alone to a camera.
Which is why the rest of his face looks so static while his eyebrows are to honest not to move.
I'm probably wrong tho.
Honestly I have no control over them when I talk! I usually talk a lot with my hands and eyebrows, I've been told.
@@inthemix use a sidechain
the eyebrows control him
RX is a godsend for wintertime when you have to keep working despite having the heat run in the studio.
This made so much sense. I thought I was using my noise gate wrong when really I just need a denoise plugin

What do you think about universal Audio API Channel strip gate can I use it for tracking and still get good in your face emotion in my vocals ?
Is there a way to do in Ableton live what you did in fl studio? With the noise profile tool to remove noise, like in the other video? Or have I missed something obvious 😳 newbie here. Also love your tutorials thanks for making them!
You sir, are an audio god!
Your voice the guitar the noise all of it 🤣😭😂. I was very civilized way of saying: once we crack this one right here open you're recording is going to hell in the hand basket homie. 😂😭🤣
As a guitarrist, I've experienced how noise gating can kill your sustain. Now my question is: does noise reduction affect your tone?
This is exactly my same problem. The noise gate kills the sustain
@@teannarae7664 It is also a problem when you try to swell with the guitar pots.
@@alejandroperez-ry7vn I'm going to try a noise reduction plugin tomorrow someone mentioned from here: klevgrand.se/products/brusfri
Maybe it would work for you too. I think they have a demo.
You always bring useful content. Why don't you get into production companies

Will noise reduction make me lose high end on my vocals?
Very helpful.
