Question for you Mike... (dumb one but I'm new) .. I take it I copy the audio track from the video I have in Premiere Pro, and then paste it into Audition then clean it and save it and bring it back into the project I'm working on?
Used to work in radio ages ago, and suddenly got some audio editing to do in my new job. These tutorials are absolutely fantastic to get back in the game! Also it's amazing how much the tech has evolved to become so much more accessible for everyone these days, compared to when I had this as a day job. Love it! Radio/audio will always have a special place in my heart. Such a great medium
Thank you very much for all your tutorials. They are well structured, accessible and easy to follow and understand. I watched some tutorials in German first, but they tend to overcomplicate things. Please keep up your good work!
My fifth video in a single hour. I am flattered by your genius. Thank you very much for making this video. It will be helpful, since I live in a noisy apartment which is not good for recording.
My buddy who also does voice over moved from Reaper to Audition and wanted to know how he can learn it fast. I instantly shared your channel. Keep up the great work Mike!
Same here. I scoured related content trying to find a way to get rid of these mysterious bumps on some clips I would not be able to reshoot. I never seemed to come across any tutorials showcasing this granular approach. I finally asked the Reddit community for help and someone sent me this link. Of course it ended up being a Mike Russell video, I should have known. A vast majority of the things I have learned in my current novice phase of editing have come from various Mike vids. Lesson learned: check Mike Russell's channel first to see if the topic I need is covered. Mike, you have a knack for teaching. Clear and articulate without bloated information or unnecessary content. The structure of your videos is so smooth and shows the forethought you have about your subject matter. So many tutorial videos are all over the place making seem as though the creators are just winging their thought processes as they record. Then there's the content creators who think it's a good idea to include background music to a video about audio editing. Making it impossible to pick up on the actual audio differences in their cleanup tutorials. Thanks for sharing your skills with such a high level of quality Mike.
Thank a million of times. I was nearly hopeless after trying every noise reduction until I got to know the spot healing brush tool from your video. You saved my life. All the best for you.
that last one is crazy, whenever i use noise reduction it makes my voice sound like in talking through a pillow or something but ill try doing ur method of adding the other effects too. sick video mate!
Thanks a lot for all your helpful videos, Mike. Whenever I have an audio issue or question, I find help on your channel. Since I found your videos, my audio has improved big time and my subscribers appreciate that just as much as I do! May I ask a question: if the wind is really high, I get some wind noise despite using small dead cats on lavalier microphones. After I remove that with hi-pass, the voice sounds A LITTLE like listening through a phone - I hope you get what I mean, it's just higher and not so warm. Do you have a method how to improve that after reducing the wind noise? Thanks again - keep going!
I think the issue here is that the wind noise is more than just low rumble. Using the HP filter will cure the wind noise but in doing so you're also removing the lower frequencies in your voice which, once removed, you cannot add back. Perhaps look at the HP filter lower down, no higher than 120hz and a combination of that and De-noise or adaptive noise reduction.
I have just found your channel and I am loving what I am finding so helpful. I was filming last week and had some passing trucks in the background. I think I will need to re film but before I do do you have any tricks to reducing the noise. It is rather substantial. Regards Brian
Hi and thanks for your compliments. With regard to removing the noise I’d say if the tips in this video don’t help then you may well need to re-record I’m afraid. I think the big clue is in your own description where you say it’s rather substantial. Noise reduction techniques are designed to reduce background noise but wouldn’t make much impact on substantial sounds without degrading the audio I’m afraid.
Thanks for helping me improve on my audio quality, now my contents audio is crisp and professional... tnx a millie... 1k likes if you love Mike Russell
You sir are an audio wizard, this is huge help to me. My wife records yoga classes and every once in awhile you hear the dogs feet on the hardwood floors. I’ll be trying these methods to see if I can correct it now in the future.
I read for several of the comments and and they all are well beyond positive. Awesome work Mike, you've definitely set a high benchmark for others to follow.
Im a web designer, but hearing this tutorial.. makes me switch to another part of dimension. Thank you for sharing, I really learn a lot. More power to your videos!
Great video Mike! So helpful! I appreciate you sticking with just Audition for the de-clicks and not switching to another program to clear those. Is there a best method to remove super clicky audio for the whole recording without ruining the audio or removing most individually? I was playing around with the declick and it sounds overprocessed and still can hear the clicks. Thanks!!
Clicks, like most audio imperfections, are best removed at source. Try to avoid chocolate or dairy before recording and some say that eating an apple just before recording will reduce mouth clicks.
This is a hell of a tool. I wish I had known about this last year when I first started working on this oral history project. It would have saved me so much headache.
Thank you, this is the first one of these instructional videos I could actually follow clearly. Thank you very much for deciphering this for people like myself. You have a great voice too BTW. Cheers
Just landed here by accident, but you know ... it's a Mike tutorial ... had to watch; help more people find Mike ... and of course ... Liked. Thanks, Mike!
Would it be fair to say that the modifications you demonstrated eliminated noise, rumble and clicks but also created audio gaps that would sound unnatural or bizarre if you didn't move the good audio clips closer together or include some sort of audio bed such as music, voice overs etc to fill in the audio space?
I'm going to try this out! My friend and I are new to the Podcast world. We have no idea what we're doing in terms of editing our audio! Our first episode contains weird static noises. Hopefully this is a solution to our problem. I'll report back to let you know how it went! Thank you :)
Hi Roro. I hope this works out for you. The best advice I can give is to minimise the need for noise reduction by eliminating these noises prior to recording. Good luck with the podcast 👍
This video helped me out and I am glad I have this app now. I used my Sokani wireless lav mic and it had static on some videos and thanks to this my audio has improved. Someone pointed it out to me about static and I just started noticing it and music I knew would not cover it. Thanks for making this video.
Amazing tutorial, thanks! But what's up with your Ps and your Bs? Why do they sound so loud and like they are pushing air into your mic? The same thing happened to me in a recording and I want to know what it is and how to fix it.
The only suggestions I have then are to try a different USB lead and a different USB port on your computer. In the event neither of these solves it it’s more than likely the mic itself as USB mics have both the microphone tech and the analogue to digital conversion tech housed within.
Thank you for everything. your videos helped me get more confidence to start my podcast. i have noticed that the noise reduction doesn't seem to be working. any ideas? I'm outside for starters and i have a cheap Blue mic. (I'm a wildland firefighter and i live in my tent at our "Fire camp" The noise is just steady "Hiss" that seems to be around 2k on the Spectral display. Thank you
If you can find the frequency you may be able to EQ out the noise by setting a very specific frequency cut in the parametric EQ. Shrink the width as low as possible and focus on the area you've identified.
I just started to get into voice recordings and stuff... Been meaning to get into it for a long time... I have a low budget mic and a room without any acoustics or anything of sorts... this really helped in reducing all the background noise that bothered the hell out of me... Thanks a lot... :D
Glad to have helped. While it's not necessary to have a quality mic and sound treatmenet to get into voice work if you want to pitch for the higher end (better paying) jobs you'll need an acoustically treated space and at least a mid-range mic to get through the auditions for jobs as a quality producer will be able to spot the post processing.
Great video, Mike. Can you make a video on how to remove cough blended with audio in a classroom type situation. Tried Spectral correction etc. but I am unable to spot out the exact spectrum or frequency range of these nasty coughs. Thanks a lot.
Hi! Can I ask what's the difference between wind noise and background noice & static? Why were they treated with different methods of noise removal? Thank you
Hi there! Wind noise is typically a specific type of noise caused by air hitting the recording equipment, while background noise and static are more general ambient sounds present in the recording environment, hence requiring different techniques for effective removal. Hope this helps!
Thanks for this. Very helpful. QUESTION: @MikeRussell What's the best way to automate removal of clicks (and swallowing) sounds? On a long recording, it can take a lot of time finding and manually healing them. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Glad you found the tutorial helpful! In Adobe Audition, you can try using the "Auto Heal" function coupled with the "Capture Noise Print" feature to automate the removal of mouth clicks and swallowing sounds on longer recordings, saving you valuable time in the editing process.
You have earned a hard fan! Thank you Mike for the tutorials, you are making my beginner learning experience in audio editing more fun and easy-going! =)
I enjoyed your demo and the methods you used, especially with the spectral analysis on the old church recording, but what you treated in the middle section and were calling mouth clicks sounded an awful lot more like breathing noise. I'm chronically dehydrated because of medication, and my mouth "clicks" actually sound like clicks because of the high frequency and short duration, which all stems from a lack of saliva, and is very uniquely identifiable on the wave form, just as breathing noise also has a very specific and different pattern on the waveform.
I appreciate your observation regarding mouth clicks and breathing noise in the audio treatment. Identifying and distinguishing these audio artifacts can indeed be valuable for effective audio editing.

Hi Mike, thank you so much for this! I've tried to salvage my audio (lot of rattling from go pro audio). I've done all this but I don't understand how to copy and paste all the parameters on the next clip on my video. I've watched your 'how to copy and paste' but you've somehow got your audio in the track layout and not this layout in the video where I am. I am exporting audio files from adobe premier and not sure if that has something to do with it? Thanks again mate
@@MikeRussell Dang Mike I wasn't even expecting a reply so thank you so much for taking the time! After watching more and more of your videos I realised this option of noise reduction is only specific for that clip and can't be copied, so I had to re-start from the beginning 😂 Have a great weekend mate!
Unfortunately noise reduction degrades the quality of the audio. The best tip I can give you is to sort out the noise at source so you have minimal and preferably no need for noise reduction.
Hello mike! I watched the whole video! Got to know many important stuff from it. Just one question : would the de-noise option remove the background noise without affecting the voice quality? Because i have tried to reduce it in the noise reduction process. It sounds like kind of unnatural/robotic! 😕
Unfortunately any noise reduction technique will have an impact on audio quality which is why it’s always recommended to remove the source of noise before recording. The noise will share some frequencies with the audio you’d like to keep but get removed in the noise reduction or denoise process to remove the noise.
Thanks for this and all your other tutorials :) Out of curiosity, what’s a good way to reduce mouth clicks in a more general way/track-wide in Adobe Audition? Is it only spot fixing or is there some effect or post processing that you could apply to the entire track? I have the rode nt1a and it ... is good at picking up on those, despite pop filter, distance and a slight angle 😅 are the accusonos tools useful in that effort? I am more on the narrating than audio processing side, so... I’m a beginner with the software :)
Hi Kristina, try to avoid dairy before recording and also try eating an apple before you record. In terms of editing these there are plugins available, Audition also has a declicker but by far the most effective way to remove them is with the spot healing brush.
@@MikeRussell i appreciate it - will play around with those today. No dairy for me before the last recording, just a mile, yet pesky cold that made it seem like a losing battle. The apple suggestion is interesting, I’ll give that a try :)
Hi, Mike. Thank you for the tutorial, amazing, best one so far. I have a question though, I have an hour long audio with lots and lots of mouth clicks. It would take me a lot of time to remove it with the brush. Is there an effect that would do similar brushing on the audio but automatic? I've literally tried everything, tried the deClicker but it makes my voice actually sound like it's crackling...
I'm afraid you'd have to go through and remove them. For future sessions try to avoid dairy before the session and some people say eating an apple can help reduce mouth sounds.
@@MikeRussell Thank you for taking the time to reply. I thought it wouldn't be possible. I'll definitely try the apple, don't eat much dairy products ;) Thank you again.
Heyo, just letting you know that one of the early sections of the video has "background" spelled "backgoround", figured you might wanna know. :) Also, great video man. I did not know about the spot healing brush tool for removing clicking noises. It's great stuff!
Paint down here, paint down here, paint down here and paint down here. And then again paint down here and here😁 You've made my day bro😁 Greetings from Russia.
Hi Mike - and thank you so much for your help with Audition so far. I am struggling with a piece of voice audio that has a high pitched sound every time someone speaks. Its in the background, but seems disturbing. I have no idea what it is called and no idea how to remove it. Can you help?

@@MikeRussell Dang Mike I wasn't even expecting a reply so thank you so much for taking the time! After watching more and more of your videos I realised this option of noise reduction is only specific for that clip and can't be copied, so I had to re-start from the beginning 😂 Have a great weekend mate!
👍
The best tutorial ever !
Thanks
saved my life with this video!
loved the subtle tips. When I do the noice reduction process my voice sounds a bit robotic, what ca I do?
Unfortunately noise reduction degrades the quality of the audio. The best tip I can give you is to sort out the noise at source so you have minimal and preferably no need for noise reduction.
These are brilliant easily applicable tips - Subscribed and thank you Mike!
Thanks Tanna

Hello mike! I watched the whole video! Got to know many important stuff from it. Just one question : would the de-noise option remove the background noise without affecting the voice quality? Because i have tried to reduce it in the noise reduction process. It sounds like kind of unnatural/robotic! 😕
Unfortunately any noise reduction technique will have an impact on audio quality which is why it’s always recommended to remove the source of noise before recording. The noise will share some frequencies with the audio you’d like to keep but get removed in the noise reduction or denoise process to remove the noise.
@@MikeRussell right! Thank you so much for your kind reply! 🙌😇
Wonderful lesson..... Just wonderful ❤
Thank you
Please do a video on RTX Voice! I'd love to find out how much it degrades the sound quality when using it with different types of high quality mics.
Thanks for the suggestion Ivan
Absolutely amazing as always Mike. Thank you so much !
Thanks Paddy
Nice tutorial Michael,
Thank you 👍
Thanks for this and all your other tutorials :)
Out of curiosity, what’s a good way to reduce mouth clicks in a more general way/track-wide in Adobe Audition? Is it only spot fixing or is there some effect or post processing that you could apply to the entire track? I have the rode nt1a and it ... is good at picking up on those, despite pop filter, distance and a slight angle 😅 are the accusonos tools useful in that effort?
I am more on the narrating than audio processing side, so... I’m a beginner with the software :)
Hi Kristina, try to avoid dairy before recording and also try eating an apple before you record. In terms of editing these there are plugins available, Audition also has a declicker but by far the most effective way to remove them is with the spot healing brush.
@@MikeRussell i appreciate it - will play around with those today. No dairy for me before the last recording, just a mile, yet pesky cold that made it seem like a losing battle. The apple suggestion is interesting, I’ll give that a try :)
Get well soon, good luck with the apples and let me know if it works for you.
@@MikeRussell thanks! It’s a good forced break - I can watch your videos and learn. I really like your teaching style and pace :)
Thanks Kristina

Very helpful Video as always .
👍
Wow, these tools have come so far!

Hi, thank you a lot!
I think you'll find heavy noise reduction would make some attempt to reduce them
This was a fantastic video. Thank you so much sir.
🙏
Hi, Mike. Thank you for the tutorial, amazing, best one so far. I have a question though, I have an hour long audio with lots and lots of mouth clicks. It would take me a lot of time to remove it with the brush. Is there an effect that would do similar brushing on the audio but automatic? I've literally tried everything, tried the deClicker but it makes my voice actually sound like it's crackling...
I'm afraid you'd have to go through and remove them. For future sessions try to avoid dairy before the session and some people say eating an apple can help reduce mouth sounds.
@@MikeRussell Thank you for taking the time to reply. I thought it wouldn't be possible. I'll definitely try the apple, don't eat much dairy products ;) Thank you again.
Good luck 👍
He always does very informative videos that are well done. Thanks !
🙏
On the first two minutes my problem has been solved thank you ;)

Heyo, just letting you know that one of the early sections of the video has "background" spelled "backgoround", figured you might wanna know. :)
Also, great video man. I did not know about the spot healing brush tool for removing clicking noises. It's great stuff!
👌
thanks for your tutorial, it's really helpfully...
Thank you
Paint down here, paint down here, paint down here and paint down here. And then again paint down here and here😁
You've made my day bro😁 Greetings from Russia.
Hi Mike - and thank you so much for your help with Audition so far. I am struggling with a piece of voice audio that has a high pitched sound every time someone speaks. Its in the background, but seems disturbing. I have no idea what it is called and no idea how to remove it. Can you help?
