Hello again;

You very likely will not be able to hear the preview using Algorithm C-- remember it is not real-time. It basically is the same as an A preview but ends up with better quality. Try it on a short section and compare with your own listening devices (ears) and see what you think--if you trust it is doing a better job, it is worth the time to hit 'process' and come back to it.

I will listen to your files as soon as I can as I'm always interested in hearing what others do with noisy tracks (the nature of our work lives!).

Yes, if you can see 'straight lines' in the spectographs, that is information that you should be able to notch out using a sharp Q- Eq setting with any other plugin, or, yes, Hum Removal provided that frequency exists in the range of the hum plugin.

I recently worked on a project where I completely erased such low-end hum information in the standalone spectral repair version and also completely removed birds tweeting throughout the dialogue track. Needless to say, the director and producer were very impressed. As was I! But it is slow going. Individual events, limited to 4 seconds at a time.
