Having locked my picture, i’ve now imported the interview audio into adobe audition to clean it up, as adobe is a specialist sound design tool that has more pluggings that will fix the audio to the requirements that i need.
To help me with tidying up the audio, i followed this tutorial by
Importing sequence into adobe audition
Although i took the audio clips into adobe audition, i found the process long winded and overcomplicated for what i needed to do. The reason for this was, i levelled out and cleaned up my audio inside of premiere, however, when i imported the audio sequence file into audition, even though it is suppose to keep all of your keyframe animation and fx applied to the audio tracks, i found that it did not copy everything over as i had hoped. Also, when i tried to mix down the interview and make it sound clear, removing the background atmospheric noise from the pre-amp, it made Oli’s voice sound very digitalised and unnatural.
So for this purpose, i thought that i’d mix the audio inside of premiere pro, being that i know the plugging a lot better, plus, i already started audio work on the program.
The tools that i used to mix down my interview audio was the Audio track mixer, applying the selected sound fx
Multiband compressor de esser: to remove all of the sibilant consonants, such as “s”, “z” and “sh” mentioned during the interview
De crackler: Used to get rid of the cracks and pops when the audio was sliced during a sentence, as at times it would start with a crack or pop due to the abrupt cut in the audio
DeNoiser: To remove the pre-amp sound during the pauses in-between sentence throughout the interview.
Multiband compressor legacy: Film plugging used to raise the volume of the interview
EQ: Loudness: Used to raise the high end frequency of the interview, as some of it was lost due to the compression of the pre-amp from the DeNoiser plugging
