Cellphone interferance

Post by Phil »

Hi,

1/ I've got a video clip and on the audio, someone's cellphone interferred with my external microphone whereby a text or media message must have been coming through and I got the "morse code" type interferance that lasts for about 5 seconds. I've had a look at the audio filters. Can VSP x3 remove this using an audio filter?

2/ I've got multiple clips in my project. How do I increase the overall volume with one or two easy clicks as opposed to going into each clip individually and increasing that way?

Cheers

To answer your first question. This is an extremely difficult thing to do. You might try downloading the excellent freebie software "Audacity" form here:
http://audacity.sourceforge.net/download/
But even with specialist tool like Audacity it will be very difficult to "extract" the bit of audio that you don't want and leave behind what you do want. You don't say what the back ground sound is but if it was the rolling sea or perhaps birdsong or anything that didn't necessarily need to be in sync with the video you could just use the rubber bend tool to reduce the volume to virtually nil for just the 5 secs of the phone noise and copy and paste 5 secs of audio from in front or after the phone noise and pop that in the appropriate space. Use the Ripple editing to make sure these two elements stay locked together.
So far as the second question is concerned the short answer is no! However what you could do is do all your editing including any transitions and effects then Go to Share "Save as video file" save to the format that you need for the finished product then open a new Project in VS X3 import the video file into the timeline and then adjust the volume in the entire clip in one go!
