BIAS SoundSoap 2 Demo Part 1

SoundSoap is a digital audio signal processing application for Mac and Windows computing platforms. SoundSoap is the first professional-quality noise reduction solution that's also easy enough for average consumers to use effectively. By adjusting just two knobs, anyone can remove unwanted hiss, room noise, rumble, electrical hum, and other background noise from almost any digital media file — including Digital Video (DV) soundtracks, PowerPoint and other presentation software soundtracks, Flash and other web-tool soundtracks, digital audio workstation tracks, cassette or other analog tape recordings that have been transferred to a computer, and other sources.

The trial is locked down too tight to evaluate fully.

Saving would be helpful for evaluating in some cases...

Is the playback you hear in the trial version exactly how it sounds when the file is saved? I'm getting ringing sometimes with human voices (not present in the original file) and I don't know if this is the result of playback on the fly or the result of noise reduction processing. If I could save the clip and play it back on a different player I'd be able to tell.

@chakrasaurus - if you use the plug-in version trial, you would be able to bounce it in your host app, and end up with a file you could move elsewhere for listening. It would still contain the occasional dips in volume (a limitation of the trial), but you would be able to hear the parts that had been cleaned on another system, as you mentioned. For tips on cleaning, or if you'd like to send a sample file, just contact us at: sales@bias-inc.com

Mit csinálsz? Dobolsz? Igen, jaj de jó :DD

(for people who don't speak hungarian: it's the dialogue from the video meaning What are you doing? Drumming? Yes, that's good.)

@AttilaSVK - I think you might be the first person to recognize that!  :)

Final Cut Pro compatibility?

Yes and no... SoundSoap 2 includes an AU format plug-in, which does appear within FCP – BUT, FCP does not support custom user interfaces like SoundSoap's, so all you will see is sliders and pop-up menus. So, yes, technically you can use it in FCP, but it's not as easy as when you use it with its own interface, as shown in the video. As an alternative, you can use Peak or Soundtrack Pro as an external editor for FCP, and then use SoundSoap within that ext. editor with usual interface

thanks great video

Since iMovie does not support plug-ins, you can use the stand-alone edition of SoundSoap for this. You just need to export the audio separately, clean it in the stand-alone edition of SoundSoap, and then bring it back into iMovie. Depending of the version of iMovie you're using, you may need to mute the audio from the original clip when doing this, so you only hear the "clean" audio.
