SoundSoap™ 2 —
The one-click noise reduction solution for Windows or Mac OS X.
Give your audio a pre-wash soak. Just click Preserve Voice, and SoundSoap instantly scrubs away noise (and other sounds) outside the range of the human voice. Choose whether SoundSoap's processing is on or off, or listen to just the offending audio (Noise Only); a very useful mode for manually adjusting the controls — while preserving the desired sound.
Click Learn Noise and in seconds, SoundSoap automatically profiles any noise in your signal and adjusts the Noise Tuner and Noise Reduction knobs to their ideal settings. SoundSoap removes hum (typically introduced by electrical interference from fluorescent lights or inferior wiring) with just one click. Choose 60 HZ (for regions with ~120 VAC electricity) or 50 HZ (for regions with ~220 VAC electricity). With one button, SoundSoap virtually eliminates low frequency noise, or "rumble" including turntable motor noise, an idling truck, or any similar such noise below 40 HZ.
Effectively Remove Noise
Just how much cleaning is taking place? SoundSoap's unique Wash Window lets you listen — and watch — while it goes to work. The left side of the SoundSoap Display shows the unprocessed signal, while the right side shows it after it's been cleaned by SoundSoap. (blue = desired audio signal; red = noise.)
Preserve Desired Audio
The Noise Tuner control helps you "tune in" the hiss and other background noise you want to remove. The Learn Noise button will automatically set this control for you — or if you like, you can grab it and adjust it manually
Noise reduction can be adjusted manually with the Noise Reduction knob (or automatically by clicking Learn Noise). A low setting is good for subtle noise; for bigger problems, just crank it up and listen to the noise evaporate.
Buff out those scratches, and restore your Vinyl LP collection quickly and easily. With a single slider, SoundSoap removes pops, clicks and crackles without affecting the audio you want to keep!
After you've cleaned your audio, leave a super fine polish with SoundSoap's unique Enhance Slider. This intelligent dynamic control brings back any missing frequencies, and leaves your finished audio sparkling.
