How to remove room echo

3

Hey man.
I had a couple of minutes spare so I gave it a shot.

Unfortunately I didn’t have a long enough segment of just the room ambience so the noise removal tool struggled a bit.
Other than that, I converted it to mono, removed high and low frequencies with EQ, ran a de-esser and did 2 stages of noise gating.
And obviously lots of compression.

Hey @David. I had the same problem as you do and asked Mike about it. Tried gates and expander and helped to some extent. Then Mike recommended this plugin it’s called Zynaptiq Unveil and it works fantastically.

I just ran your example with a preset in Audition and the attached file is the final audio. It still has some reverb but the voices are more focused, intelligible and pleasant to hear.

Check it out
