I desperately
need a noise gate, or something else to remove breathing
sounds. Could anyone help me find one?
There is a ladspa plugin called: "Gate" by Steve Harris. It's available
in the swh-plugins package. But ..
OK, that would be fine. Is there a HOWTO on installing LADSPA plugins for use
with Audacity available somewhere?
I am recording
using Audacity 1.2.3 from a rather simple microphone, and
breathing sounds are clearly heard when the speaker inhales air; from the
look of the graph, it seems that a simple noise gate would remove them.
But I could not find a noise gate in Audacity 1.2.3...
... setting up a gate in audacity is painstaking as you can't do it in
realtime.
No problem. In fact I prefer the Audacity way of doing it. We're doing a voice
recording, not a concert, so having many tries is good.
If you really want to use audacity, you can also do
this with jack-rack
Definitely don't want to go there. Jack setup is a major hassle; with no
realtime need, I don't see why it would be worth the time.
When gating the signal though, i suggest that after
finding the right
parameters for the gate to work correctly, try making the gate a "soft"
gate via the "Range" parameter. Breathing noise might be irritating at a
level, but vocals without breathing might sound unnatural.
Agreed. Audacity giver many tries so it's easy.
