SpectraLayers vs Siren

[Mattias Larsen]

I ran a test to denoise my voice next to a siren with SpectraLayers and must say im pretty surprised how well it behaved carving out the voice and eliminating the background.

 

SL is quickly becoming an addition to my post production tools (still find RX easier to deal with lighter cases of clicks and pops)

Have you tried Adobe Podcast AI Enhance Speech? I am amazed at some of the things it can fix/remove.

I have been using SpectraLayers and  SpectraLayers Pro since it was initially published by Sony Creative Software. It is amazing but editing the spectral graph was a rather steep leaning curve, even with experience using PhotoShop. The later AI functions are real easy though (unmix, ect).

For sure! It struggles a bit with some languages and the effect is also "wow". However the layer possibility of SL is cool for narrative work when we don't want to alter the tone too much, or not make ot sound like a podcast.

 

Here is a little Walk-through that I did about the possibilities with SL and RX when there is just a mixtrack.

Got more SpectraLayers tutorials directed towards audio post? Please share if so!

I recently discovered dxRevive Pro.  For some of my audio cleanups it has been a wonder.  Expensive yes, but it works for me.  You can test drive a trial run for 30 days and it's not crippled.

Yeah DX revive is great, but sometimes it makes the tone a bit metallic. Good to have options.

 

I can also believe SpectraLayers with DX revive on the speech layer can be a good aproach to beef up a thin dialouge without touch the backround too much.
