In this blog post, let\u2019s take a look at the common audio repair needs of guitar performances, and listen to how iZotope&#8217;s RX performed in the face of them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"603\" data-src=\"https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/guitar-denoise-rx-8-in-post-01-1024x603.png\" alt=\"A screenshot of the Guitar Denoise module in iZotope's RX 8\" class=\"wp-image-12274 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/guitar-denoise-rx-8-in-post-01-1024x603.png 1024w, https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/guitar-denoise-rx-8-in-post-01-400x235.png 400w, https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/guitar-denoise-rx-8-in-post-01-355x209.png 355w, https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/guitar-denoise-rx-8-in-post-01-768x452.png 768w, https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/guitar-denoise-rx-8-in-post-01.png 1454w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1024px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1024\/603;\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-small-font-size\"><em>RX\u2019s Guitar De-noise module<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Amp<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s begin with Amp, which removes amp noise from your audio. Here\u2019s what the original recording sounds like:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-audio alignwide\"><audio controls src=\"https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/guitar-post-amp-before.mp3\" preload=\"auto\"><\/audio><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The amp noise sticks out like a sore thumb at the beginning of the recording. Although it\u2019s not too bad throughout the rest of the performance, we can improve the quality of the sample by cleaning out this noise. With RX, this process is simple \u2013 all we need to do is highlight the section with isolated noise and click <strong>Learn<\/strong> to train the module to remove the noise contained in the area. Once the de-noiser is trained, we simply adjust the<strong> Sensitivity<\/strong> (how much of the audio will be classified as noise) and <strong>Resolution<\/strong> (the number of notch filters applied to the signal during processing) to taste. Here\u2019s the final result:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-audio alignwide\"><audio controls src=\"https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/guitar-post-amp-after.mp3\" preload=\"auto\"><\/audio><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>For comparison, we also tried using the <strong>Spectral De-noise<\/strong> module, as we would&#8217;ve done before RX was released. Here&#8217;s what that module produced:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-audio alignwide\"><audio controls src=\"https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Guitar-post-amp-after-spectral-denoiser.mp3\" preload=\"auto\"><\/audio><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>This module also does a great job at removing the amp noise, but it comes with a slight trade-off. It\u2019s a subtle difference, but to my ears the Spectral De-noise module <em>does<\/em> take away some of the higher harmonics, diminishing the brightness of the guitar\u2019s tone. In my opinion, the Guitar De-noise module&#8217;s performance compares favorably to the spectral de-noiser in this instance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Squeak<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Squeaking sounds can be notoriously finicky. While they&#8217;re a natural part of a guitar performance, lending character to a recording and differentiating it from <a aria-label=\"a VST guitar, (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/make-guitar-patterns\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">a VST guitar,<\/a> squeaks can also easily become too loud and unpleasant to listen to. Here\u2019s a recording of a hollow-body guitar that we captured using an AKG C414: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-audio alignwide\"><audio controls src=\"https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/guitar-post-squeak-before.mp3\" preload=\"auto\"><\/audio><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Using the Squeak module couldn\u2019t be easier \u2013 just highlight the section you&#8217;re interested in focusing on, and adjust the <strong>Sensitivity<\/strong> and <strong>Reduction<\/strong> to your liking. Here\u2019s what the recording sounds like after one pass:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-audio alignwide\"><audio controls src=\"https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/guitar-post-squeak-after.mp3\" preload=\"auto\"><\/audio><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>I still hear some small amount of squeaking, but to my ear it sounds much more musical and warranted for inclusion in the final sample, as opposed to the original recording. For reference, this is what the squeaks that RX processed out of the audio sound like:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-audio alignwide\"><audio controls src=\"https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/guitar-post-squeaks-only.mp3\" preload=\"auto\"><\/audio><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pick<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The last module we\u2019ll look at is Pick \u2013 it\u2019s (predictably) intended to remove picking noises from guitar recordings. Here\u2019s the audio we processed:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-audio alignwide\"><audio controls src=\"https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/guitar-post-pick-before.mp3\" preload=\"auto\"><\/audio><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The emphasis on the picked note is certainly intentional in the performance. We\u2019re looking to use the pick de-noiser in a very subtle way here because we don\u2019t want to lose the intentionality of the motif; instead, we want to leave the melodic, pleasant part of the performance intact while removing some of the harsher, more percussive sounds. Again, RX makes this very simple: just adjust the <strong>Sensitivity<\/strong>, <strong>Reduction<\/strong>, and <strong>Attack<\/strong> parameters. Here\u2019s our final result:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-audio alignwide\"><audio controls src=\"https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/guitar-post-pick-after.mp3\" preload=\"auto\"><\/audio><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8230;And to really illustrate the difference, here\u2019s what <em>only<\/em> the picking sounds like:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-audio alignwide\"><audio controls src=\"https:\/\/splice.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/guitar-post-pick-only.mp3\" preload=\"auto\"><\/audio><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Conclusion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Once again, we\u2019ve been blown away by iZotope\u2019s sonic magic. Traditional de-noising tools can work for specialized tasks like this, but since RX has an entire module focused on just one instrument, it\u2019s easier than ever for users to edit their recordings to sound professional \u2013 even without deep knowledge of how de-noising is accomplished. It\u2019s basically point-and-shoot; just highlight and apply the processing you want. While normally we would&#8217;ve spent hours painstakingly trying to EQ out issues like these from our recordings, RX makes it easy to remove common problems from our guitars. If you\u2019re a guitarist or frequently record guitar performances, RX\u2019s Guitar De-noise module will save you a ton of time, especially if you\u2019re editing lots of files like I am.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, we\u2019d like to say a big thank you to Rotem Sivan for graciously letting us use this behind-the-scenes audio!
