Is there anyway to remove background sound from a home video?

(I’m making up our yearly photo/video disc and the one video has a lot of static/wind type sound in the background which makes it hard to hear the singer/speakers. Its in avi format. I’m a bit of a computer idiot so it needs to be fairly easy)

Answer #1

yesss..windowss movie maker

Answer #2

Thats what I’m using. I can take background noise out with that?? Could you please tell me how. Thanks hugely!

Answer #3

I can’t help you here, it sound like you need a program that can filter frequencies of noise, sounds like a lot of work. I know their are people that make good money at this.

Answer #4

the way id try my best to hide it would be to mess around with all teh sound functions..

select teh audio from teh timeline which is normally located at the very bottom and mess around with teh audio effects/filters..

obviously make sure the timeline is at the correct position of teh video youll be editing.

i can do it with my video editing software, see pic, but ive never done it before cus never needed to, sorry :(

Answer #5

Answer #6

Answer #7

i have had a look for ya….

i used to use this: http://funadvice.com/r/14misqfs720

but i cant for teh life of me remember if it had the said audio editing with it :S

there is a free trial for pinnacle studio that does have the noise reduction: http://funadvice.com/r/14misqfs934

be warned though its 2gb in size and the trial is 15 days, but that should be well enough time.. 2-4 days watching the videos to get to know how to use and the rest for all your editing.

i did have a look and its $99.99 to buy. the ultimate collection with a few more features is $129.99 so if your gonna be doing more family vids it might be worth to buy 1 or the other. :)

so download your 15 day trial, spend a few days watching the tutorial vids and then edit your vid ;)
