How To: Reduce Room Noise of Microphone Recordings with Studio One V3 Prime

[@charltonmoore]

NO one achieves this better than this video. Of course you need to EQ the track after the channel strip but MAN this solved a lot of issues. THANK YOU

[@RecordingStudio9]

Thanks for the feedback.

[@rhettkennedy3507]

Exactly what I needed! I have recently switched from Audacity to Studio One, and I narrate and produce audiobooks. I needed to find out how to do EQ, Noise Reduction and Compression. Great to know that you can do it with one controller! Very Cool. Thanks so much!

[@RecordingStudio9]

Glad my videos helped you out. Thanks for the comment.

[@Owndabea]

"Say it together-uuh" lol. Thanks man!!

[@faerieguts]

This video is an absolute GODSEND! Vocal tracks sound a zillion times better. And now when I splice / move parts around, it's smooth as silk. Amazing!

[@RecordingStudio9]

Thanks 😊

[@antoniostaropoli8848]

This was a great help! Thank you for making this video. Also, your English is just fine. Speaking multiple languages isn't easy and I commend you for your hard work.

[@ЮлияВихлянская]

This is the loveliest tutor's voice I've ever heard. Sorry you'd had a cold at the time but that captivating rasp is utmost thrilling. And the lecture itself is remarkably comprehensible, thank you so much. Though in the end I turned to Audacity for help - that provides a rather smart and delicate noise reduction tool. Can't quite understand why should PreSonus be so insistant on not including this highly demanded option. Anуway, thank you again, I'm glad that you just are. Stay - that's the way it should be.

[@RecordingStudio9]

Thanks for your comment. Artist or Pro edition do have better noise gate and expander options built in, but not in this free Prime edition, unless you purchase the Pro Add-on plugins for Prime.

[@ЮлияВихлянская]

Thank you again, I'll bear that in mind. Anyway, S1 has proved so far to be the best in providing quality of recording itself. That's much already.

[@annewallick-bauhof5339]

Thank you! I was going nuts trying to pad the room further to cut down on noise!!

[@ironhitz]

Dope advice. I used it... Works like a charm. Thanks man

[@FrancoAlcudia]

Oh my gosh, I've been searching for a video like this, and now, after all this time I found it by accident, nice video I have to say.

[@RCLIFTOFF]

Well this really helped with understanding the Channel Strip better. Now a days you can just start with a Gate in the inputs and negate any noise as you record.

[@fonqstarr3636]

That's what I do. A gate ,and hi pass cut around 95.

[@JoshStevenson]

super helpful for live recordings on vocals and drums, thanks so much man

Thanks for subbing!

[@georgeanderson6671]

This is a great idea thanks for sharing but just one question. Does it messes with the effects on the vocal? Such as Delays etc.

[@RecordingStudio9]

Not at all. Place the FX plugin after the Channel Strip or on an FX bus and use SEND from the channel.

[@georgeanderson6671]

@@RecordingStudio9 Awesome thank you

[@ellenthweatt6639]

Thank you!! Great timing for me to find this.

[@nickygacha1800]

Ok the Chanel strip works when you not saying nothing. But once you start singing or rapping there’s still static in you vocals. Once you say anything the channel strip. the mic still picks up fuzz in your vocal.

[@RecordingStudio9]

The channel strip's expander is just a "gate". In PRIME, this is the best way. If your DAW supports VST plugin, then you can use dedicated plugins, like iZotope RX or WAVES Clarity

[@kevinconnelly3341]

Thanks for the intell!! Really helped clean up my vox tracks!!

[@RecordingStudio9]

Glad to hear. Thanks for watching.

[@BobSmith-vq3uo]

Great advice. Thanks for sharing this. I noticed that your vocal track didn't have sibilance on the "s", but with the expander, the S became sibilant. I am finding this with my tracks on Studio One. How do you deal with this? Is it necessary to notch down the EQ around 5 or 6 K and add a de esser? Or is there a better way to handle this? I have noticed the Binaural Pan produces sibilance that I can't remove. Any help appreciated.

[@RecordingStudio9]

If you believe your vocal ends up too sibilant, then the best advice is to use a de-esser. De-esser is a dynamic process, meaning no change unless the signal level is above the threshold. With notch eq, it's taken down all the time. I don't know why you hear more sibilant after the expander, but most likely due to in conjunction use of the compressor on the Channel Strip plugin.

[@BobSmith-vq3uo]

[@valentinpuskaric4617]

Hey Nice Video.. so i have question how do you clean up noises manualy,without channel strip..Thanks

[@RecordingStudio9]

Manually would be to select and silence any audio between spoken words or music. A very long process.

[@valentinpuskaric4617]

RecordingStudio9.com nah i m using strip silence ,just do it that way.anyways thnx

[@RecordingStudio9]

That means you have the Studio One Pro. Studio One Prime does not have that option, hence my video.

[@valentinpuskaric4617]

RecordingStudio9.com well yeah

[@Vinicius-io6ql]

thanks bro, for a beginner this help so much.

[@RecordingStudio9]

Glad to hear that!

[@imzaazmi]

[@MWGAMINGYT4L]

Can I use the channel strip and another fx at the same time for my recording?

[@RecordingStudio9]

Yes.

[@imanmusicofficial1028]

Sir how to remove s sound ssssss ? What plug in i need to use thanks sir i hope you answer my question

[@RecordingStudio9]

Search for a de-esser VST plugin for any other DAW as Studio One Prime does not support VST plugins. Purchase the Prime edition Add-on Bundle (shop.presonus.com/Studio-One-Prime-Pro-Plug-ins-Bundle) and use the Compressor with 'De-ess' preset.

Does Studio One 4, have this option called channel strip?

[@RecordingStudio9]

I Usually export to audacity n Select noise reduction. But this was faster💯💯

[@RecordingStudio9]

Thanks

[@seanchang-r3e]

learned something from this vid. thanks

[@RecordingStudio9]

Glad to hear it!

[@jungleman4238]

Hi. I am still hearing like an electrical kind of hum. Any tips on hw to get rid of that noise whilst recording? Possibly from the program or laptop. Much thanks and cheers...

[@RecordingStudio9]

This depends on the quality of the equipment used, the mic, mixer or audio interface and the cabling. Software don't generate hum.

[@retsmej]

is this useful only during silent parts of the clip ? 'cause when the gate opens the noise goes in with the vocals right ?

[@RecordingStudio9]

Yes, this is not noise reduction process. Normally the audio is louder than noise during talking and inaudible.

[@retsmej]

@@RecordingStudio9 thanks...

[@paperoga79]

Can I edit audio from video with this software?

[@RecordingStudio9]

Yes, but with the Pro edition. Prime edition doesn't support video import.

a man thanks for this video um a artist that always go to big studio just learning how to record myself. do u no how to use autone on stuido 1 4.1

[@RecordingStudio9]

Studio One V4 comes with Melodyne for pitch correction. There are many videos in detail on how to use it already, even from the creators of Melodyne. Just do a KZbin search.

[@hotboyjezzo3383]

dats some nice vocals..I like the melody also thanks for the advice

[@eddieworldwide5191]

Thank you for this man,really helped

[@MDugardin]

Hi, thankx for the vid, i realise that the noise is still there in my sound system here with or without that channel strip, when loud.

[@RecordingStudio9]

Then, you need to reduce or move away from the noise. There are plugins that can remove noise, but Studio One Prime doesn’t support VST. Clarity by Waves, RX by iZotope, GOYO etc

[@MDugardin]

@@RecordingStudio9 Hi, there's a misunderstanding here, i was talking about the noise in this vid when i listening to it with my good sound here, the noise, he says, will disappear but it is still there in his Vid.

[@RecordingStudio9]

The title says, "Reduce" not "Disappear". Because the channel strip is set with Expander which simply lowers the input signal and doesn't mute it. Also, any room noise while the audio is high will include the room noise as it's not cleaning the noise from the signal. Hope that explains.

[@MDugardin]

@@RecordingStudio9 Yep might be better to simply silence them ? Thankx for the vid anyway.

[@MSP99Loquendero]

willing to learn. Unless you already understand setups, then I gues sit's gonna be easier, but as a classically trained pianist I was blown

[@danielandrespat]

Vatche. I installed the studio one 3 prime, but i donpt find a way to open an mp3 or wav audio file as backing track to sing over it. Is not there that option ?

[@RecordingStudio9]

+Daniel Patino Glad you asked. PreSonus Studio One Prime free does not have MP3 import or export option. You may need to convert your MP3 to a WAV file using Audacity to import. Once finished recording, you can export as WAV file, then use Audacity to convert to MP3. Hope this helps.

[@danielandrespat]

well, thnaks, but it didn´t allow me to import neither .WAV files. How can i do that ?

[@RecordingStudio9]

+Daniel Patino Click on Top menu SONG then IMPORT FILE. Hope this helps

[@danielandrespat]

will try pal. Thank you again.

[@allanscontreras]

unfortunately you have to buy a plugin to import mp3s

[@MaxMuccini]

thanks for your very useful tricks

[@marin4311]

Good advice, man.

[@noreaction1]

What’s the difference between an expander and a gate

[@RecordingStudio9]

Gate simply switches the input signal ON or OFF, Expander reduces the input signal gradually. Think of it as an automatic volume level. It's like turning the volume up as the signal gets louder and turning the volume low as the signal gets low. Hope that makes sense.

[@leffivanov3127]

that "say it together" is slowly killing me...

[@RecordingStudio9]

I do have an accent, and English is not my first language. LOL, but I hope the example helped.

[@izziOnBass]

Thats the biggest noise I could hear inside the vocal booth :D

[@nico_poriol]

another great video man! :)

[@RecordingStudio9]

+Nicholo Poriol Thank you for the feedback. I forgot to mention that in Studio One V3 Pro, there is an option to automatically cut silence of recorded audio. But since we are working with the Studio One V3 Prime free, it is not included, and this is the quick work around.

[@etherlords88]

can you post a video on that as well?

[@alimamalachi8893]

Is there strip silence in the prime version? I can't find it

[@RecordingStudio9]

Automatic strip silence is only in the PRO version of Studio One. In PRIME, it's manual :-)

[@alimamalachi8893]

RecordingStudio9.com how do you do it manually, do you mute the section?

[@RecordingStudio9]

Pretty much yes. For long passages, slice and delete or reduce clip gain. Once done, it's also a good idea to render onto a new track, so you work with one new clip.

[@alimamalachi8893]

RecordingStudio9.com okay, this helps alot thanks for responding

[@RetySethofficial]

I thought you were going to flip the phase of the recorded noise to cancel the noise from the recorded vocals. Well, great work.

[@RecordingStudio9]

Unless the noise is a constant, it doesn't work using phase inverting

[@RetySethofficial]

@@RecordingStudio9 Yes, thats true.

[@simpleguitarman]

Thanks for this video, it helped me out big time.

[@RecordingStudio9]

I'm glad it did.

[@chrismunoz433]

Shouldn't that. Red rectangle nest to the volume be off, is that causeing saturation?

[@RecordingStudio9]

+Christopher Munoz Good question and great noticing. Yes, as I turn the compression on for the first time, it increased the volume and clipped the main bus. Normally, you would notice this and turn the output GAIN of the Channel Strip down, to make sure it does not clip. Thank you again.

when i record on my mic the microphone is really sensitive. if i go right up to the popper stopper and speak it makes my audio super loud and clips it. i am an idiot and have been trying to figure it out how to lower it so i dont have to be 3 feet away from the mic to record.

[@RecordingStudio9]

Where is the microphone plugged into? Mixer?, lower the channel gain/fader level. PC Mic input. Use the Windows Audio Recording Device setting to lower the Mic sensitivity level.

[@Doostpan]

you are the man. i am such an idiot!! i didnt even realize there is a freaking knob on the audiobox that turns it down. god damn i am so stupid!! haha. thanks again man, and thanks for the fast response. i watched a ton of your youtube videos and learned a lot. much appreciated.

[@linfr8066]

Thanks very helpfu🎶🎶👍🏼

[@MariusVideoOfficial]

This method Is good in a song with a backtrack loudy and rich of instruments but when you sing in a song with few instruments and very smooth and intimate vocals parts is not applicable, you have to clean the background noise with a tool that read the noise profile and automatically puts in the track the same noise profile with inverted phase (Audacity has a nice noise removing tool) this catches a lot of the background noise naturally and the track become clean and ready to play

[@RecordingStudio9]

Marius Video Thanks. Noise canceling by noise profile phase inversion only works for constant levels, like hum. Not for ever changing background room noise. You can still use noise profile noise canceling by adding the noise audio track, inverting it, then sending both into an aux bus.
