Sample in progress
There is no real before/after recording here yet. Rather than fake one by mixing noise into a clean clip, this space stays empty until a real pair is made from one recording.
When removing background noise helps
| Recording | Typical background | After |
|---|---|---|
| Phone voiceover, vlog | Air conditioning, fans, traffic | Only the voice, ready for new music |
| Interview, podcast | Cafe chatter, an echoing room | Cleaner, easier to follow speech |
| Class or meeting recording | Keyboard, computer fan | Ready for transcription and subtitles |
| Dialogue in a video | Background music | The lines on their own, to rescore |
For a faint hiss, the noise reduction in your editor is usually enough; when the voice is buried under music, a crowd or wind, use AI to remove background noise.
How to remove background noise from audio
- Open Noise removal in the workbench and upload audio or video (up to 200 MB); the page shows how many minutes it will be charged for.
- Click the button. The upload is transcribed and screened first, then the background is removed.
- Listen and download. Failed runs are refunded automatically.
120 credits per minute, a started minute counts as one.
After the noise is gone
- Change the voice: clean speech changes more naturally, so run it through the AI voice changer or male to female voice changer.
- Transcribe it: the workbench's speech to text exports SRT subtitles.
- Add sound back: make what you need with AI sound effects.
