Drum Tool

A
  • The Drum Tool appears as the Drum(loop) stretcher and Paste replace drum dialog.
  • -The purpose of the tool is to reconstruct the decay portions of sliced drum beats that are often abruptly cut short in the slicing process.
  • –The Drum Tool works by detecting attack and decay portions of each region in a drumloop (or the selected beat) and then reconstructs more natural sounding decay/s.
  • –The options provide the opportunity to fine-tune the decay section to match the source material.

81
Q

FL STUDIO - Edison
Denoiser is used for what?

A
  • To activate ensure the Denoiser button is selected.
  • -The Denoiser is designed to reduce or remove constant background noises in recordings.
  • –This background noise can include tape hiss, microphone hum, power mains buzz, camera motor noise, air-conditioning rumble and any other type of noise that doesn’t change in level or frequency significantly throughout the recording.
  • —If you need to remove door slams, bird song or any similar transient and variable sound. This is not the tool you are looking for.
82
Q

FL STUDIO - Edison
Denoiser
Threshold

A
  • Controls the separation of noise and desirable signal levels.
  • -Higher threshold settings reduce more noise, but also may suppress low-level desirable components of the signal (select the Output noise only switch to hear the sound being removed).
  • –A lower threshold preserves low-level signal details, but can result in noise being modulated by the retained sounds. A good default is 0 dB.
83
Q

FL STUDIO - Edison
Denoiser
Amount

A
  • Controls the level of noise suppression in decibels.
  • -Strong suppression can degrade low-level residual audio, so it’s recommended to apply only as much suppression as needed to reduce the target noise to the level that is barely noticeable (click the Preview button to audition various settings prior to applying the noise reduction).
  • –Remember, if the sound is to be used in a mix, then it is likely that less suppression will be needed to render the noise inaudible.
84
Q

FL STUDIO - Edison
Denoiser
Noise profile

A
  • The Denoiser needs to hear an example of the background noise, preferably in isolation from other sounds, so that it can generate an accurate ‘noise profile’.
  • -From main Edison sample window, select a section of the sample that contains only noise (if possible).
  • –Examine the start and end of the sample, where noises are usually exposed. Alternatively, you may need to select regions in the sample where there are pauses in the desirable sound (breaks in speech or singing for example).
  • —If a ‘noise-only’ region can’t be found, select a quiet section of the sample where the noise is at its most audible.
  • —-After selecting the longest section of noise that you can find, Right-click the Clean up (denoise) button to create the noise profile.
  • —–If the Noise Removal Tool is open, click the Acquire noise profile button to select the noise sample.
85
Q

FL STUDIO - Edison
Denoiser
Select the region to be processed

A

-Prior to returning to the Denoiser interface, make sure that the region you want to denoise is selected in the main Edison sample window (the Denoiser will retain the noise profile so it is OK to close the Denoiser to select the region to be processed).
—If no region is selected the whole sample will be processed, this is usually the desired outcome as processing small sections of a sample can lead to audible tonal changes at the boundaries of the processed region.
Preview the settings - Open the Denoiser Tool and preview the default settings by clicking on the Preview button. Note the noise profile will appear in the Denoiser as a green frequency curve (see the screenshot above).
Fine tune the controls - Sometimes you may hear ‘underwater’ artifacts of the noise reduction process, if so you should continue to adjust first the Threshold and then the Amount settings. You should apply only enough reduction (Amount) to make the noise barely or not noticeable in the context for which the sound is to be used. Excessive amount settings are guaranteed to cause audible artifacts. It is often useful to select the Output noise only button to more clearly hear the parts of the sample being removed. Ideally only noise will be heard.
Accept the result - Once you are satisfied with the settings.

Practice makes perfect - If you would like to experiment, the sound ‘Maximus NoiseGate Tutorial 44kHz.wav’ is a vocal mixed with some power-supply hum, exposed at the end of the sample. To download the file you will need to create a logon at freesound. The freesound project is an initiative of the Music Technology Group of Pompeu Fabra University to build a library of Creative Commons licensed sounds.

Declipper
To activate ensure the Declipper button is selected. The Declipper can repair digital and analog clipping artifacts that result when A/D converters are overloaded or magnetic tape is over-saturated. The Declipper can be extremely useful for saving recordings that can’t be re-recorded such as live concerts, interviews or one-off audio events.

Declipper
Threshold - Selects the clipping level used for detection of clipped peaks. The ideal setting is a level just below the actual level of clipping, you can examine the waveform in the main Edison window and inspect the clip level by hovering the mouse over the clipped waveform.
NOTE: The Declipper re-creates peaks above the clipped level and will therefore reduce the overall volume of the recording to provide headroom for this process. In light of this, declipping usually needs to be applied to the entire recording in order to avoid a sudden drop in volume in the processed region.

Declicker
To activate ensure the Declicker button is selected. The Declicker is useful for restoring for old vinyl and other recordings that cause clicks, pops and/or crackles. The Declicker can also remove a variety of short noises from other sources, including lip clicks and ‘smacking’ on vocals, some clicks caused by digital errors or electrical interference. The Declicker works best on click-transients of 10 ms or less.

Sensitivity - Controls the aggressiveness of the click detection algorithm. Low values of this parameter will remove fewer clicks, while higher values may treat musical transients as clicks, resulting in distortion.

Tune Loop Tool

A
  • The Loop Tuner allows you to remove clicks, pops or beating sounds from a loop.
  • -The Loop Tuner is not an automatic loop finding tool, it is intended for smoothing loops that have already been selected.
  • –Be aware that to accommodate the loop smoothing process, some settings will move the loop-start point automatically.
  • —To preserve your loop-start point, set the Crossfade length and Snap settings to minimum.

To Open the Loop Tuner Tool

A

-To open the tool, either Left-click on the Tune Loop button , press (Ctrl+L) inside the Editor, or use the Tools > Regions > Tune loop option.

Crossfade Length

A
  • Changes the amount of crossfading.
  • -The end of the sample loop is crossfaded (blended) with the region before the loop start so that the end of the loop blends smoothly with the beginning of the loop.
  • –Consequently, the loop start point will be adjusted automatically as the Crossfade value is changed, to bring in more or less of the pre-loop sample data into the loop.

tension

A

-Changes the slope of the crossfade volume envelope. Set by ear.

94
Q

Tune Loop Tool - Options
snap

A
  • The Crossfade and Smear processes take advantage of the detected pitch of the sample (set it in the sample settings, click F2 inside the Editor).
  • -In order to minimize phase cancellation, the Smear echoes are snapped to the pitch period.
  • –The snap setting changes the multiple of the pitch period (shown in the title bar) that the Smear tool works to.

Tune Loop Tool - Options
Blur Order

A
  • A ‘smoothing/blurring’ tool that works by smearing together multiple ‘echoes’ of the waveform.
  • -The higher the value of this parameter the more closely spaced the echoes (delay taps).
  • –Works best on sustained sounds (e.g. pads/strings) and is designed to minimize the ‘beating’ sound sometimes heard in bad loops.
96
Q

scale

A
  • Similar to a ‘tension’ parameter. Controls the peak of the smear function.
  • -Higher values create a sharper cut-off at the blur boundaries.

Using Loop Tuner
When you open the tool the selected region or loop will play continually, allowing you to process the loop with the options above. Technical explanations have been provided here for your edification, however experimentation and ‘setting by ear’ are the best way to use this tool (if it sounds good, it is good).
