I much prefer doing manual spectral noise reduction in the RX editor. I haven't found any real time noise reduction plugin that stands up to the level of detail you can get manually denoising clip by clip using the editor. Also - I find multiband compression can be a a very useful dialogue shaping tool in conjuction with broad EQ.
@AftertouchAudio2 жыл бұрын
I agree with you. Depending on the level of noise (how poorly the dialogue was recorded) I move that processing up the chain as it would need more extreme settings. I do have a multiband compressor and an broadband eq on my dialogue bus to help control the tone of my dialogue more, I’ve just found a single band compressor works good on the track itself.

RX Denoise is designed to be used in the RX Editor, not as a real time plugin. You must "teach" it the noise first by giving it a few second clip of the cleanest noise you can get, and then it will work as intended. All those noise reductions you showed sounded pretty terrible. Also AI is making huge advancements in this area. It will probably be the standard, in less than a year, to use AI powered tools in our editors to clean most types of noises.

Hunting for random frequencies is a fast way to over-process, especially if you're just starting out. Practically everything will start sounding like you should cut it if you're listening with a sharp 10dB boost. You should only seek out and cut ringing frequencies if they're audible enough to bother you in the first place.
@AftertouchAudio2 жыл бұрын
While I do agree with you to a point, most people don’t have a well trained ear to hear these ringing frequencies in context of a mix. By sweeping you can identify the ringing frequency and reduce it.

Not really, the only time where you run into issues like that is when the dialogue is recorded VERY poorly with levels not being set consistently. If I have noisy dialogue I don't try and process it completely away I instead aim to lightly process it and then fill it with noisier BGs instead.

Idk much about audio mixing but isnt doing those sharpe pointed cut in 3:14 generally not recommended? Because in any freq, when you do a sharpe bell curve, it sounds like there is a problem because you are hearing single freq over amplified
@AftertouchAudio2 жыл бұрын
The probelm these frequencies cause is when you compress the signal. When you compress a signal these frequencies can be more pronounced and can make the voice harder/more tiring to listen to. These rining frequencies can be anything from room modes to just sibalane and should be controlled. A lot of tutorials you'll see on KZbin will tell you to cut the frequencies, which is not correct. You need to reduce them enough so they blend better with the dialogue. which can be anywhere from 5-10dB.
@TheAris6218 ай бұрын
@@AftertouchAudio Not entirely true. When you're boosting a bell filter with such a small q-factor, you just completely take those frequencies you are sweeping across out of context. In this case, almost any frequency can sound "problematic", while in context it rarely isn't. The amount of narrow cuts you did and the severity of them is completely unnecessary. If you are really worried about certain frequency bands being problematic after compression, just adjust the eq after you've compressed it. You will see you'll need much less severe eq adjustments.

Two questions. You said to bring each clip up to -24 or -23. 1. What about a dialogue part where the the actor is whispering but then talks loud? 2. Can you a tutorial on doing ADR in Nuendo, using the ADR Panel?
@AftertouchAudio Жыл бұрын
1) It is more of a starting point. If you have your dialogue at a consistent level, then you can make the choice to lower it slightly for whispering or louder for yelling. (Follow the natural dynamic flow of the dialogue) Where if you don't you end up with a mess where dialogue is too loud, too quiet, and then your plugins don't operate well. 2) I don't do much ADR, but I could go through an ADR Panel in a future video.

Just discovered your channel, great videos! I have a question, after you set the lufs on the dialogue clips, when you start the processing with plugins, I guess you still keep an eye on the lufs? In order to keep the 23 lufs. Like what's your workflow, you gain stage each single time you add something? Hope it makes sense :) thank you!

Basically I still keep an eye on the LUFS Meter as I add plugins to the dialogue chain. As plugins get added to the chain I'm not really adding any gain other than maybe some EQ boosts in the upper register to help with Lavs, the compression is really just keeping the loud peaks in check so not a lot if any gain is added to the final output. But yes, when I am mixing and riding volume automation, I'm still keeping an eye on my LUFS meters.

@AftertouchAudio2 жыл бұрын
So it really depends on how much noise there is to reduce. Sometimes I'll switch around the order so it is the following. Gain Stage - Subtractive EQ - Denoise - Compress - DS - Saturation - Additave EQ. It really just depends on what you need and what is the least amount of work each plugin will be doing.

So I've been meaning to do an update to this video for awhile, life is just getting in the way. Essentially there is no HARD rule that says do this, then this, then this, then this. Your goal with transparent processing (like dialogue processing) is to do as little as possible. Sometimes it is ok to have noise suppression before compression sometimes it is better to have it after compression. With that being said, my dialogue processing chain has really changed quite a bit since the release of this video that it does warrant an updated video.

Your dialogue sounds over processed in terms of NR and subtractive EQ. Maybe you’re exaggerating the point for KZbin, but this is not how finished dialogue should sound. Maybe try using RX Isolate or Clarity for the broadband noise, even RX spectral de-noise could be considered. That amount of subtractive eq makes the dialogue sound ‘ringy’, don’t obsess over ringing frequencies, anything boosted with a narrow Q will sound weird/ringy especially if it’s a harmonic of the voice
@AftertouchAudio Жыл бұрын
The settings for the noise reduction were exaggerated intentionally, going from minimal to extreme settings, to demonstrate the differences between the 3 plugins. I'll end up updating this video as my template has changed drastically, and there is very little on my processing chain now. I agree that the examples I used could have been much clearer, and I did need better source audio as I did not have permission to use any other examples, which will be corrected in future videos. When I did this video I was still trying to figure out the whole KZbin thing and find my own flow to presenting, but I do appreciate the feedback.
