Removing unwanted sound in CS 5.5

Hi there. I'm using CS 5.5 and need to remove an unwanted 'clicking' noise that has come through in a project - it coincides with an interviewee speaking. The noise occurs frequently, but not consistently, throughout the footage. Is there a tool I can use to isolate the noise and remove all instances of it in the project, or are there any other tools that might help me with this problem? Any advice/guidance would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you.

Do you have Adobe Audition?
If so, it has a great tool to Repair Transients, and that tool works beautifully.
I have also used Click Removal, but it is a bit broader, and I more often just go to Repair Transient - for me, its default is about 99% for most Transients. I am amazed at how well it removes Transients, while leaving the other aspects of the Audio untouched.
Good luck,
Hunt

Removing Unwanted Sound Devices

Hi People,
I had software for Epson data projectors installed which added EPSON Projector Audio to the Sound Devices list in the Sound Preferencepane. I have used the uninstaller to remove the software, but the Sound Device is still listed. I am unable to locate where this file might be so I can remove it manually. Any ideas?
Andrew

Then you may find using the freeware, Easy Find, for this. Usually much better than Spotlight for finding such files - you will find it at VersionTracker or MacUpdate.

Removing Unwanted Noise

Greetings!
I'm editing a feature film on Final Cut, and there's a scene in a nightclub. The dialouge is very clearly recorded, but running through all the footage is a bit of a hum, mostly from the power going to the lighting grid above the actor's head.
Now, I'm not asking for a step-by-step way of removing this ... if there even is one... but if someone could point me to the right filters to use in Soundtrack Pro... I would be highly grateful.
Cheers,
RickytheGriff

hi
I recently worked on a commercial where the camera wasn't sealed correctly and you could hear the rolling sound of the 35mm film throughout a very quiet piece with dialogue.
I opened the aif in the STP audio editor and selected a section where there was just the unwanted sound and from the Process menu choose 'select noise print' and then choose 'reduce noise' - there are some paramaters here that you can tweak and preview before you commit the action to your file.
anywhoo, it worked a treat!
here are before and after clips ...

Remove background sound

I have a clip and the audio is very hard to hear, the camera man did not use a mic. How do I make the sound better?

hi
your thread is called 'remove background sound' but the description you give only mentions that the audio is recorded at a very low level?!? so, I hope my advice helps ...
firstly, you don't need to use Logic, everything you need is within STP. you should probably normailize the audio to get it at a decent level then follow this advice from a previous post of mine ...

These are the downsides of a shared library because if you delete the song from your library it will get also automatically deleted from your kids library. If you want to proceed then please follow this guide: https://support.apple.com/kb/HT4915

How do I remove unwanted updates from the App Store?

How do I remove unwanted updates from the App Store? So you understand better what I'm referring to:
I have the App Store icon in the Dock. When there's an update a red number appears on said icon. Well, I went to check on the updates and it's for 4 different applications I either no longer have or use. One of them is an update for Lion OS users. I'm still on Snow Leopard, so it doesn't even apply to me.
So there they sit... I'm not going to download the updates... so how do I get rid of them?

Hi Andy ..
no longer have or use
If there are updates available for apps you have deleted, try this.
Go to ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.appstore
Move the Cache.db and Updates files from the com.apple.appstore folder to the Trash.
Empty the Trash, restart your Mac.
For any apps you still have installed but do not use, the updates will still be available from the Updates top of the App Store window and show on the red badge on the App Store icon in the Dock.

I need urgent help to remove unwanted adware from my iMac. Help!

I need urgent help to remove unwanted adware from my iMac. I have somehow got green underline in text ads, pop up ads that come in from the sides of the screen and ads that pop up selling similar products all over the page wherever I go. Its getting worse and I have researched and researched to no avail. I am really hestitant to download any software to remove whatever it is that is causing this problem. I have removed and reinstalled chrome. I have cleared Chrome and Safari cookies. Checked extensions, there are none to remove. I need to find an answer on how to get rid of these ads. Help please!

You installed the "DownLite" trojan, perhaps under a different name. Remove it as follows.
Back up all data.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
/Library/Application Support/VSearch
Right-click or control-click the line and select
Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item named "VSearch" selected. Drag the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password.
Repeat with each of these lines:
/Library/LaunchAgents/com.vsearch.agent.plist
/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.vsearch.daemon.plist
/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.vsearch.helper.plist
/Library/LaunchDaemons/Jack.plist
/Library/PrivilegedHelperTools/Jack
/System/Library/Frameworks/VSearch.framework
Some of these items may be absent, in which case you'll get a message that the file can't be found. Skip that item and go on to the next one.
Restart and empty the Trash. Don't try to empty the Trash until you have restarted.
From the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
Uninstall any extensions you don't know you need, including any that have the word "Spigot" in the description. If in doubt, uninstall all extensions. Do the equivalent for the Firefox and Chrome browsers, if you use either of those.
This trojan is distributed on illegal websites that traffic in pirated movies. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect much worse to happen in the future.
You may be wondering why you didn't get a warning from Gatekeeper about installing software from an unknown developer, as you should have. The reason is that the DownLite developer has a codesigning certificate issued by Apple, which causes Gatekeeper to give the installer a pass. Apple could revoke the certificate, but as of this writing, has not done so, even though it's aware of the problem. It must be said that this failure of oversight is inexcusable and has seriously compromised the value of Gatekeeper and the Developer ID program. You cannot rely on Gatekeeper alone to protect you from harmful software.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

Newbie question: Why is "learn sound model" greyed out when trying to remove background sounds in a file using the Spectral Frequency display?

I am trying to remove background sounds in a file using the Spectral Frequency display. The first edit on a new file, this process works fine:
1. use brush to cover sound
2. right click, learn sound model
3. effects/noise-reduction-restoration/Sound Remover
The next time I try to remove another sound in the file, "learn sound model" is greyed out. I have to close the file and reopen to be able to make another edit. What on earth is going on? Can it only learn one sound model or something?
I'm a newbie, so thanks in advance for your advice!

My daughter has had her Razr for about 9 months now. About two weeks ago she picked up her phone in the morning on her way to school when she noticed two cracks, both starting at the camera lens. One goes completely to the bottom and the other goes sharply to the side. She has never dropped it and me and my husband went over it with a fine tooth comb. We looked under a magnifying glass and could no find any reason for the glass to crack. Not one ding, scratch or bang. Our daughter really takes good care of her stuff, but we still wanted to make sure before we sent it in for repairs. Well we did and we got a reply from Motorola with a picture of the cracks saying this was customer abuse and that it is not covered under warranty. Even though they did not find any physical damage to back it up. Well I e-mailed them back and told them I did a little research and found pages of people having the same problems. Well I did not hear from them until I received a notice from Fed Ex that they were sending the phone back. NOT FIXED!!! I went to look up why and guess what there is no case open any more for the phone. It has been wiped clean. I put in the RMA # it comes back not found, I put in the ID #, the SN# and all comes back not found. Yet a day earlier all the info was there. I know there is a lot more people like me and all of you, but they just don't want to be bothered so they pay to have it fix, just to have it do it again. Unless they have found the problem and only fixing it on a customer pay only set up. I am furious and will not be recommending this phone to anyone. And to think I was considering this phone for my next up grade! NOT!!!!

I want to purchase Apature, but In the advertising blurb I dont see how to remove unwanted objects from a photo. I know it can be done in Adobe Elements, but I would rather Apature.

I want to purchase Apature, but in the advertising blurb I dont see hoe to remove unwanted oblectsfrom a photo. I know it can be done in Adobe but I would rather have Apature.

What DiploStrat said.
To expand a little bit: Aperture allows you to assign a graphics program (such as PSE) as an "external editor". In general, you use Aperture to organize your photos, to develop them (make them as good as possible for each use), and to publish them (create share-able files). Your external editor is used when you want to create a new graphics file, which is what happens in all "destructive pixel editing".
Aperture provides tools to remove sensor spots from skies (and like operations), but for removing people and billboards you'll want a proper compositor, a/k/a a graphics program.

Removing unwanted characters..

Hey guys,
I'm back for help again. Unfortunately my brain isn't creative enough, so please help! :-)
Ok, I need to remove unwanted characters from a file...the problem is that the characters look like this:
in any text editor. I'm using JEdit, and it's ISO-8859-1 encoding. The text was initally from a html file, and i think that most of the html is displayed well as text in JEdit. But these squares, which are bits of info that I don't need, are making it a little trick to do my extraction.
Ex: the word I want to extract is "trouble". But in the file, it looks like this:
troble....
Anyone know how to get rid of all that stuff???
Thanks in advance.
...DJVege...

you could try to set a filter on the characters you accept. Process each character and only accept those that fall into some ASCII boundary. If you accept ASCII characters that have values between 33-255, most blocks should be eliminated.
Something like this should help:
import java.io.*;
public class Example {
     protected static final int MIN_ASCII = 33;
     protected static final int MAX_ASCII = 255;
     public Example(String file) throws IOException {
          BufferedReader b = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(new FileInputStream(file)));
          PrintStream p = new PrintStream(new FileOutputStream(file+"_fix.txt"));
          String s = "";
          int j;
          while ((s = b.readLine()) != null) {
               for (j = 0;j < s.length();j++) {
                    if (valid(s.charAt(j))) {
                         p.print(s.charAt(j));
               p.println();
          b.close();
          p.close();
     protected boolean valid(char c) {
          int asc = (int)c;
          // allow for tabs and spaces
          if (asc == 9 || asc == 32) {
               return true;
          return (asc >= MIN_ASCII && asc <= MAX_ASCII);
     public static void main(String args[]) {
          if (args.length > 0) {
               try {
                    new Example(args[0]);
               catch (IOException e) {
                    e.printStackTrace();
}useage: java Example <file>
of course, something like this will probably only work on "english" files as I dont have an understanding on how foreign characters are encoded..
if this doesnt solve your problem, you might want to adjust the range to 33-127, which will eliminate all "block" characters and all "special formatted" characters (i.e. accented characters, currency signs, etc.)
see http://asciitable.com/ for more information on ASCII characters
