Studio 12 okay so now let's get into the actual process of how to remove hiss
from audio and sound Forge audio studio 12 first you'll want to drag and drop
your video file or your audio file if it's separate from your video once it's
loaded in select the entire file by pressing ctrl a on your keyboard or you
can also just click and highlight the section that you want to edit now go up
to tools Audio restoration and click on DeHisser once the DeHisser opens you can
click on speech here and now Sound Forge knows that we're working with voice
audio now you can either adjust the controls manually by just clicking on
preview and then your audio will start playing this is a test of video audio
with some hiss and you can move the sliders to the desired spot or you can
try one of the presets by clicking here and selecting the one that gives you the
sound you want
after you click a preset you can adjust it manually to really dial in the right
settings keep previewing the audio while you adjust so you can hear what it
sounds like I often click the bypass button on and
off when editing to compare the original audio to the Dehissed I want to make
sure that it doesn't sound worse than the original a cool feature that doesn't
really affect anything but it is cool is the preview artifact button when you
click this you will hear all of the sound that you're removing it's pretty
interesting to hear but it's not a necessary step once you've dialed in the
final settings and you're ready to go click on OK
you can then continue editing your audio if you want to do more to it or you can
just go up to file click Save give it a name or you can overwrite what you've
already recorded and you now have a Dehissed audio track
for your video you can now load your video into Magix Vegas Pro or whatever
software you use for editing or if your video was already edited and you just
needed to adjust the audio you can now post your video if your video has really
bad hiss or hum in the background and you can't edit it out with this method
you should consider upgrading your microphone or your preamps or maybe even
both a little bit of hiss and a little bit of hum is normal in the background
of videos but if it's too loud there's likely a problem with your gear let me
know in the comments below what you're currently using for your audio recording
and you can also let me know what you think of it if you enjoyed this video
