Sound for Video Session: Cleaning Up Background Noise from dialogue recordings in Audition and RX

In this week's Sound for Video Session I show an example of how to reduce the noise (fairly extreme background noise) in a dialogue recording using Adobe Audition and Izotope RX 6.

Links to gear we discussed or used to record this session:

Focal Solo6 Be - Top-end professional near-fields from Focal. Beryllium tweeter. These are the monitors I finally decided to purchase for my mixing work - just to follow up from last week's session where we talked monitors.

Electrovoice RE20 Dynamic Broadcast Microphone - this is what I used to record my voice for this session

Antelope Audio Orion Studio Audio Interface - this is what I used to record my voice for this session.

Sound for Video Session: Izotope RX6 Demonstration

Izotope RX is an invaluable tool for dialogue audio post production clean up and mastering. I rely on RX heavily for most of my dialogue processing projects. Izotope just released the newest version (RX6) and in this session we'll look at two new modules (de-wind and de-rustle) as well as at the dialogue de-noise which has been improved over previous versions.

Links/Gear used to create this session:

Izotope RX6

Electrovoice RE20 Dynamic Microphone (Voiceover for this session was recorded with this)

Blackmagic Ursa Mini Pro Camera (Talking head clips shot with this)
