Frequently Asked Questions
What noise removes cleanly?
Constant hiss, fan hum, and room tone — the four levels (Mild, Moderate, Strong, Extreme) drive spectral afftdn (nf -25/-35/-50/-70) or, with the noise-profile box checked, non-local-means anlmdn (s 3/7/12/18). Sudden sounds (doors, coughs) need manual editing instead.
How strong should reduction be?
Start at Moderate: over-reduction warbles voices underwater. If Strong or Extreme sounds metallic, step back down — intelligibility beats silence.
Will voices sound robotic?
Only if pushed too far — conservative settings preserve natural timbre while dropping background. Compare the Original and Processed players after each run and keep the gentlest level that works.
Does noise reduction upload audio?
No — reduction runs locally in your browser with FFmpeg. Only saves touch the network — downloads are unlimited.
