Who can help me reduce this noise?

Hello,

I'm currently cleaning the dialogue of a documentary and there's one scene which is recorded very very bad:

http://wtrns.fr/3QeVmaFp1iZsCId

Who can help me clean this up? It's the only scene that is this bad, it would be great if it's a least a little bit more acceptable.

Thanks,

Niels

I'll take a look as soon as I get into the studio.

It's pretty bad.
Apart from the river, there is also some LF from mic handling and/or wind.
High-pass this first, then try De-Noising with Izotope RX (broadband only).
It will never sound pretty, but at least you can stop the audience from having to rush to the toilet.

Cheers
Florian

A high-pass may dull the speech which actually extends to 20 kHz in this sample. Here's the result of RX2's algorithm D with 9 dB of reduction: RiverRX.wav.

High-pass should only get rid of the very low frequencies...

Here's my attempts.. had a busy day, but wanted to give this a go.
'Step #1' is iZotope RX2 Denoiser - probably like Alexey had - -10dB of reduction, Algorithm 'D' - and 'Smoothing' slid to the right a good bit.
'Step #2' - is Xnoise, then a pass of RX2 Denoise and then RX2 Descratch.
If it were me, I'd be planning ADR someway.

Hi all,

thanks for the replies so far and thanks Bill for your attempt. I don't think I can use it though, too many artifacts.

I tried a demo of Izotope RX2 before and got pretty much the same result, not really usable in my opinion.

Anyone else...?
