![]() ![]() It is still worthwhile playing with the settings and listening to the results while setting it up though. This can be worked around by processing with the sound turned off. It refuses to continue, but can still be stopped and restarted from the beginning (without losing the settings). ![]() DeNoiseLF is supplied as a separate package bundled with DeNoise. Users report that settings normally have to be reset for each recording to optimize the noise removal thus making it difficult to use in a semi-automated way. I have found one bug in the Linux version - sometimes processing stops when the sound is turned on to listen to samples. As with ClickRepair, some new users may find it similarly intimidating as an entry level tool. So, export the project as a WAV or AIFF, then open it again in Audacity and you can play with the entire Noise file all at once. When played back or exported, you effectively get a diff of the two files, leaving only the Noise. Until recently, I was running Clickrepair under *******, but now (at last!) I have it running on my new PC under Ubuntu. Select the waveform of the ClickRepair file and Invert it. If you want the best results, you need to experiment with different settings, often for each LP. There is a learning curve for ClickRepair, don't expect to master it in one hour. The results are, in my opinion, excellent. I find it takes up to 1/2 hour to process an LP, sometimes more in a bad case. This way the repairs are completely undetectable. This way the start and finish points for the worst clicks can be adjusted manually before making the repair. I find it best to set "automatic" to around 80 or 90. ClickRepair is brilliant at correcting faults, but not so good at selecting the best start and finish point for each repair. Don't expect to let it run on fully automatic if you want first class results. I have found, though, that it is best to use some manual intervention unless you have a really pristine LP. With care, all trace of clicks can be removed, the sound is clearer, and there is no loss of brilliance. I have been running ClickRepair for several years now, and I have used it to process the sound from approaching 100 LPs. Thanks for your comments btw, appreciated. Yes and it is not of the quality of any of the others I have noted. Yes, though the one in the repo works with the Ubuntu sound server and the changelog does not warrant my changing distro for the minor improvements mentioned.Īnd btw have you tried the noise removal in Audacity? You'll probably have to compile it manually, but it might be worth the effort. I see that the ( GWC ) version in the Ubuntu repository is not the latest, so you might have a look at the latest versionĪnd check the changelog for improvements made. I had heard reports on WinForums of acceptable auto-mode from Click-Repair and am interested to hear if users of the Linux version have the same to say. Manual de-clicking takes soooo looonnngggg. It, and most others, fall short when used in auto-mode. GWC is a fine app and used for Manual restoration is as good as any I have tried. On the homepage there are lots of restoration tips. ![]()
