[CM] noise reduction with snd

[Moritz Lennert]

Hi Michael,

Thanks for the tip, but if I see correctly this is a Windows program. I run Debian GNU/Linux and so if there is a possibility in GNU/Linux, I'd prefer that. Otherwise I might have to come back to that and find someone with a Windows machine...

However, my recordings are not always of very good quality and I often have heavy background noise. Since this noise is quite constant and homogenous, I was wondering whether it would be possible to filter it out in order to hear the voices more clearly. I've tried some noise reduction with 'audacity', but the result was not extraordinary. Is it possible to reduce noise in snd ? And if yes, could someone just briefly list the steps I have to follow, or a source of information about this ? I have read through the manual, but since I'm not familiar with the vocabulary of sound engineering this is not always easy.
