6 AI tools help remove noise during audio/video recording
In an ideal world, we would do all audio and video recordings in quiet spaces. However, the daily reality is not like that. Outside traffic and noise from neighbors are not always within our control.
1. Adobe Enhance Speech
Adobe Enhance Speech wins the gold medal for AI tools you can use to remove background noise for one reason: Its ease of use. It makes your audio or video sound like it was recorded in a soundproof space with just one click. If you've ever tried removing background noise from videos on Android or iOS, you'll appreciate the ease that Enhance Speech offers.
Adobe's Enhance Speech feature is best used for soft noise removal, where the main voice can be distinguished from background noise. Otherwise, parts of speech may be 'deleted' as mistakenly interpreted as noise.
This tool is free to use for audio files. However, you need to subscribe to Adobe Express Premium (cost 11.49 USD/month) to remove noise from video files.
2. Audio Enhancer
Audio Enhancer does an amazing job at removing background noise from audio files. But that's not all it does. It also processes and improves voice quality and fixes volume levels.
What makes Audio Enhancer win the 2nd spot on this list is the free customization options. After uploading the audio, you will be prompted to choose what enhancements you want to make to the audio, as can be seen from the screenshot below.
You are then also prompted to select your content type.
These customization options (at the free level) ensure that you get satisfactory results. Its Pro plan offers access to even more features and starts at $10/month.
3. Audio Studio
3rd place belongs to Audo Studio. Audo Studio removes background noise and echo, and is similar to Adobe's Speech Enhance in ease of use.
Audo Studio's output is satisfactory and rarely causes you to need to manually adjust the gain level. All users receive 20 minutes of free audio enhancement every month. Pro plans start at $12/month.
4. Lalal.ai
There are a few other AI-powered noise cancellation options you can try if you don't like the ones the article has covered so far.
Lalal.ai is an AI tool that helps separate voices from background noise in audio and video files. It allows you to clean up your files and listen to them for free. However, you need a Pro subscription to download your processed files.
Lalal.ai Pro plans are usage-based and start at $18 for 90 minutes of processed audio.
5. CapCut
CapCut also provides a noise removal feature that you can use to remove noise from your video file. It's user-friendly and works well when you need to "clean up" the audio in the video you're editing. Additionally, it is available on both mobile devices and computers.
CapCut's noise reduction tool is free for unlimited use (at the time of writing). Overall, CapCut is relatively safe to use.
6. Podcastle
Podcastle turns noisy recordings into refined audio with its AI-powered 'Magic Dust' feature. This feature is part of a broader set of audio editing features that Podcastle offers. You can upload your audio, edit it, and then use the Magic Dust feature to let AI process the audio.
Podcastle requires a subscription to use this background noise cancellation feature (and a suite of other Pro features). Plans start at $23.99/month or $11.99/month when billed annually.
Each of these tools offers unique features and noise reduction methods. If you need to quickly remove background noise from an audio or video file, these tools provide many solutions that can help.
