Soundsoap 5 free5/2/2023 They are not free, but their relatively minor cost represent excellant value for money I believe. He has two piecs of software one is ClickRepair the other does noise removal. But I evenually found that too much manual work - so another posting on the forum pointed me in the direction of soem software developed by an Australian mathematician, Brian Davies. I started off just using Audacity for this - in 1.3 the ne Repair function is particularly useful. I use Audacity mailny for transcribing LPS & tapes and cleaning them up in the process. Like you I got a free trial vn of Soundsoap with some h/w I bough - and like you I didn’t like the interface. Anyone out there with SoundSoap (not Pro) experience that is familiar with this problem? I have a Logitech trackball which works well, but the precision of that small slider is crude time-wise, and it’s next to impossible to mark the beginning and end of the silent portion using that feature. But to find that “silent interval” within SoundSoap with the small “slider” control (you move it while you’re listeing), is really hard. I’ve always found it extremely easy in Audacity to locate the interval between LP or R-R tracks-it’s usually 2 or 3 seconds. For example, SoundSoap has a great feature called, “Learn Noise.” But for it to work, you must first locate a sound passage where there is noise, but no musical/voice content. I need to integrated them because SoundSoap does not have a way to display a waveform so you can easily locate specific areas. I can’t figure out how to get the two integrated within Audacity. My biggest problem is “installing” the SoundSoap VST plug-in with Audacity. I didn’t find a trial of SoundSoap, but I find it’s interface rather unusual. USBPhonoPlus preamp/digitizer and SoundSoap 2 (Bias s/w). I purchased a “package” including the A.R.T. But I’ve started a lengthy project of dubbing over 100 reel-to-reel tapes, and over 75 LP albums into the digital domain. I’ve used Audacity 1.26 and the Beta version for about a year now, and felt comfortable doing simple editing. I’m new to the forum, and hope some experienced audio editors can help.
