DVL-Digest 1281 - Postings: Index - (2) Removing Waterfall Sound DV Storm Capture - "Don Mitchell" From: bounce-dv-l-5676@dvcentral.org [mailto:bounce-dv-l-5676@dvcentral.org]On Behalf Of Don Mitchell Sent: Friday, September 20, 2002 3:42 PM To: DV-L Subject: [dv-l] DV Storm Capture My students and I are setting up a little video lab: Dell workstation 540, P4, XP Storm SE w/ breakout box; 1.05 drivers Premiere 6.0 Sony TRV25 No problem controlling the TRV25 or the DSR11 I brought in. Play, FF, rewind, etc. are just fine in both Storm Edit and Premiere. But we can't capture either with Premiere or Storm Edit, either with the TRV25 or the DSR11. Premiere (and Storm Edit) can't find the in and out points. Premiere rolls to about 20 seconds past the out point, then rewinds....and rewinds, and never stops. If we manually rewind the tape to a point before the in point, it just rolls on past it during capture. As far as we can tell, the timecode should be all right. Certainly on the tape in the DSR11 the timecode's ok -- and we're not doing batch capture anyway. This is mysterious to me. I've converted my other editing setup to Avid XDV and have no other machine on which to do tests. The TRV25 is new to us, but I can't think of any of its settings that might be causing trouble; in any case, the fact that the DSR11 behaves in exactly the same way suggests that nothing is wrong with the TRV25 -- to me, at least. I can get my hands on another Storm card and swap it in, and I could also move the firewire card from the XDV system and try generic firewire/Premiere on the Dell, but I'm hoping it's something simple that the Storm gurus can help us with. Any ideas?

Are there any "trick of the trade" for removing this >sound, but leaving the voices? You're best chance of getting this type of noise down to an acceptable level is with a DXC or VST plugin and an editing program. The best is Waves X-Noise from their Restoration Bundle. How it works - you select a part of the file that has only the sound you wish to remove (ie. waterfall only). You then start the app and it "learns" the sound. You then apply it to the whole file and it removes only what it's sampled. With a pretty broad frequency range, some tweaking is required, but it really works amazingly well. Downside is price. Sonic Foundry's Noise Removal plugin works in a similar way and is much less expensive, but in my experience, it isn't as good. Steinberg Denoiser is another, but I don't recall the price on that. My advice if you really want it lowered to a decent level - farm it out to an audio pro. This is really common and shouldn't cost too much. The plugins are great if you want to handle this in the future, but be prepared for an investment. If you want, send me a short wav, and I'll ring it for you.
