Diagnose and repair clicks, hum, clipping, crackle, room sound, hiss, and harshness without promising lossless restoration.
Hubs
Diagnose and repair clicks, hum, clipping, crackle, room sound, hiss, and harshness without promising lossless restoration.
Use this guide to turn the stated scope into a reviewable result. Keep the source, intermediate outputs, and decisions together so the next person can understand what was checked and why.
Work from an untouched copy and keep a before-and-after excerpt.
Identify the dominant defect and intended use before processing.
Expect improvement, not guaranteed lossless recovery.
Decision: Which repair fits the defect?. Use click-pop-fix for isolated spikes, click-removal for repeated vinyl clicks, declip for flattened peaks, and decrackle for fine surface noise. Choose hum-removal or a notch for a stable electrical tone; choose denoise for broadband noise.
Decision: When should filtering follow denoise?. Use high-pass for rumble, low-pass for hiss, spectral filtering for a specific frequency problem, and de-esser for harsh sibilance. Use deverb only when room reflections remain.
Listen to representative sections and classify the problem as impulsive, tonal, broadband, clipped, reverberant, or sibilant. Use audio-spectral-filter, audio-noise-reducer.
Treat clicks, pops, crackle, or clipped peaks before broad cleanup. Use audio-click-pop-fix, audio-click-removal, audio-decrackle, audio-declip.
Use denoise for broadband noise, hum removal or a narrow filter for power-line tone, and deverb only when reflections dominate. Use audio-denoise-chain, audio-noise-reduction, audio-noise-reducer, audio-hum-removal, audio-notch-filter, audio-deverb-lite.
Apply only needed filters, compare at matched loudness, and export with realistic expectations about recovered detail. Use audio-high-pass-filter, audio-low-pass-filter, audio-band-reject-filter, audio-spectral-filter, audio-noise-gate, audio-de-esser.
