![]() Let us know in the comments below what other audio lessons you’d like from FilterGrade, or anything we may have skipped over in this tutorial, that we should cover in the future.Occasionally I've been asked, “What are the most important things in filmmaking?” ![]() Premiere has all of the tools and presets that its counterpart Audition has, and using them in your edits can greatly increase the quality of your production, especially in things like vlogs, podcasts, or audio that was recorded in an unideal environment. These were some simple tips for making your audio sound better in Adobe Premiere Pro, without ever leaving the program. And of course, you can add multiple effects to the same track, so you can use a denoiser as well as a compressor, stacked on top of each other. Double click on the effect, and you will see the same windows that we saw before. You can add the denoiser, the compressor, or any other effect. For whichever track you want to apply the effect to, click on the dropdown menu and you will see a list of effects – these are the same audio effects that you have access to normally. To access this, open Windows and make sure that Audio Track Mixer is visible. There is an easier way, which lets you apply an audio effect to the entire audio track, throughout your entire project. So far we’ve covered how to apply these effects to individual clips, but if you’re working on something long, with many clips, like a podcast, you probably don’t want to apply to effect to every clip one by one. If you’re not sure if the tool is removing too much of your original audio, you can click on the Output Noise Only box, and hear if much of your original audio is being cut out. ![]() By default, Premiere is checking all frequencies, which can be effective in many cases but has a higher chance of degrading your overall audio quality.Ī hissing sound may occupy only the higher frequencies, so you can tell Premiere to only look there, and then adjust the amount to see if you’re able to scrub away the noise that way. You can move a slider to adjust the amount of denoising, and you can also tell Premiere Pro which frequencies the noise occupies. With the default preset still selected, lets take a look at the other options in the DeNoise tool. This won’t magically erase background sounds like people talking or cars honking. The kind of noise this deals with is the consistent background hiss that happens when you’re recording with a microphone, or other fairly consistent noise like computer fans. Now lets use an un-edited clip that has noise. Setting it to default would be a good starting point and will probably fix a lot of your noise problems. Go to the Effects panel and search for DeNoise, then apply that to your clip. The unfortunate part about compression is that it will introduce additional noise in the portions that were boosted. Boosting this range can give your voices a brighter and more professional tone. ![]() You may also want to experiment with the low-mids, as this is where most of the human voice falls. If your treble is too high, or you’re getting a lot of annoying “s” sounds, you can do the same with the highest frequencies, found on the right side. Using laptop speakers for example will make this really hard to monitor accurately. Using speakers with a subwoofer, or nice headphones that pick up bass well, will help you identify this. To deal with the bass, take the bass section, on the far left, and lower the gain until those rough booming bass sounds start to disappear. This should bring up the overall volume and balance of your audio, but it will also bring up the volume of annoying bass and treble sounds, so we’ll need to cut some of those off. To make things easy, let’s start on the Broadcast preset and work from there. It comes with a lot of great presets that might work well for you, so start with one of those if you’re not comfortable with advanced audio editing. A new windows will pop up and it will show all of the compression settings. Go into the clip’s Effects Control panel and click on the Edit button for that effect. Go into the Effects panel and search for Multiband Compression, then drag it onto your clip. ![]() Compression helps mitigate the unfortunate side effects of this natural way of speaking, while also giving your audio more of a crisp sound. When talking, we tend to trail off or speak with inconsistent volume. This helps make your audio sound so much better, especially voices. Compression is so-named because it literally compresses an audio waveform, lowering the volume of loud parts and raising the volume of quiet parts, until the audio is fairly consistent. ![]()
