If you have a Mac with Apple Silicon, Hush is the best out there at the moment. It enhances voiceover without giving it that weird warbly digital quality that Adobe Podcast adds. On higher strength the Adobe enhance always sounds like that TikTok SpongeBob voice filter to me. Hush isn’t free but a $50 one-time purchase. Drawback is that it only runs well on Apple Silicon. https://hushaudioapp.com/products/hush Otherwise, the other option that’s cross-platform and sounds better than Adobe is Accentize DxRevive. It’s around $100, also a one-time purchase. https://www.accentize.com/dxrevive/ Some comparison reviews: https://postperspective.com/review-comparing-various-audio-restoration-plugins/ https://www.production-expert.com/production-expert-1/dialogue-restoration-listening-test-reverb-reduction-the-results https://www.production-expert.com/production-expert-1/results-dialogue-restoration-listening-test-noise-reduction Answer from neaux1curr on reddit.com

It's always been a pain when clients give crap recorded audio to you and expect you to work magic on mobile phone recordings haha, but been testing this out with a lot of phone recordings myself recently and god damn this thing is magic.

Worth trying out, we've been using it to churn out social media posts and tiktoks without having any hassle in setting up audio properly (we still do for our proper content of course) but this has been a game changer.

It's free now too I'm guessing until they decide on some extortionate subscription fee for it when it gets popular

As the title suggests - are there any free alternatives to Adobe Podcast which allow for more control? I like the premium version of AP which gives you the slider to choose the strength of enhancement but the free one does not have it and the results I'm getting always end up sounding very robotic, with some parts of the words even cut off :( Any alternatives to it?

r/CommercialAV on Reddit: Adobe AI Audio Enhancer Tool is Awesome!
September 7, 2023 -

I came across this tool from Adobe that takes audio recorded from a cell phone (or other low quality recording) and runs through an AI enhancer. After processing, all the background noise is pretty much gone along with the room sound. Sounds closer to a studio mic. You can see at video below at about 11 minute mark.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0QAa27eFSEA&t=320s

The tool is found at podcast.adobe.com/enhance

Made me think of how ceiling mics that get installed in rooms with poor acoustics could sound quite a bit better with this AI enhance tool. I know Zoom for instance already does processing automatically but curious if Zoom could get to this level of quality in real-time since this tool does take some time to process.

So I just discovered this cool adobe AI tool that enhances audio. It removed all background noise from my recordings in a noisy bar and even increased the audio quality of my voice. It's free and I'm not sponsored by them or whatever. Just a useful tool I found that helped me and I think can help others too. And it's easy to use. Just drag your audio file in and download the enhanced version.

Here's the adobe Podcast AI tool: https://podcast.adobe.com/

Also, do you have any tools or advice for increasing audio quality?

Happy creating!

Since Adobe updated to V2 of their podcast enhancer, my latest enhanced audio files have included some bonus content: other people! Any stretch of silence (of which there are many, since it's a podcast) got filled with other voices speaking a few different languages with varying degrees of clarity. Most sound like garbled nonsense, but in a few spots the strangers' voices are literally clear as day.

Has anyone else experienced this since the update to V2?

I'm concerned about this bleed not just from an audio quality perspective, but from a privacy perspective. I've already reached out to Adobe and sent them clips, and I'm really hoping it gets fixed promptly.

Yeah it's really funny how bad Generative AI is. V1 I could go to 35% slider with one American female client using DJIs indoors, after V2 it was down to 2% before it would break. Seems like it's applying some basic filters and then using generative fill for audio to re-fill any gaps. This is why the voices generally sound awfully robotic at high strengths (especially the free 100% version). I only use this tool to save completely broken audio and still mix it back in with the original. V2 is terrible compared to V1. It actually makes good audio worse. Engine noise and car rumbles quite often get turned into words. Especially if there is a gap in the speech and the speech is competing with the background noise. This also happened in V1 it was just less noticeable. If the speech is very clear and much louder than anything else and there aren't many gaps, the effect is less obvious (I suspect due to how it samples or interprets the clip) If you haven't already, consider playing with the strength sliders. Each % setting seems to make a new random seed so the destruction isn't linear. There are a few strengths where, sometimes, it works. 12-15%, 30-35% and sometimes up at 60%ish there were often some good spots depending on filming conditions. It's such a stupid tool Voice isolation in Resolve or manual noise removal in a basic tool like Audacity is generally better. Make your own enhancements. I also gave them feedback (they asked me for it) but it took them a couple of months and was just the generic 'we strive to improve our products' sort of thing. I don't think it's a privacy issue - I don't think it's a real recording, it's the AI trying to recreate the original recording via the same guessing game LLMs like ChatGPT play when generating responses.

Is there crosstalk from other mics in the silence? The AI feels like it latches on to anything it percieves as a voice, and will try to rebuild it and amplify it up to the same loudness as the voice you actually want. Try gating the audio before running it through the enhancer to remove as much crosstalk as possible. I'm fairly sure that the voices you're hearing aren't actually real recordings, it's just the AI making stuff up.

If you want to learn a fairly simple way to do it in Audacity, or for that matter in any audio app that can use VST or Dx plugins then yes. One such plugin is the BBE, Barcus Berry Enhancer.

This online tool, Adobe Podcast Enhance Speech https://podcast.adobe.com/enhance , is awesome for improving my voice quality when using a low-quality mic. However, since it’s an online tool, it can be somewhat slow, and I’d prefer to have this feature available offline to save time.

How can I get the same feature in Adobe Audition?

February 3, 2025 -

A faulty microphone cable (damn you, Rode!) resulted in me getting some material that's overly bassy and lacking some of the high ends. I tried the typical EQ tweaks, but not sure if that made it any better, rather just 'different'. My audio isn't 'terrible' and played on a laptop you can't really tell, I'll live with it if i have to, but on better TVs or with a more pro setup, the audio in my edit gets distracting, with some clips sounding more muffled than others...

Could anyone suggest some A.I. or other tools maybe that might help smoothen that kind of thing?

Thanks!

I think from yesterday they now made it max 30 min uploads, max 1 hour per day (so basically two uploads) and implemented paid option for premium features.

Used to be basically fully free. Thanks, I guess, for the time it was free. I understand the decision because it's such an incredible tool, especially compared to already existing softwares that dominated like RX, but imagine how revolutionary if they kept it free longer.

Rip Adobe Audio Enhance, now known as Adobe Podcast AI. 😞🙏🏽

Hey there! Our team at Adobe has been hard at work on Project Shasta, an AI-powered podcast recording and editing tool on the web. While we’re getting close to sharing Project Shasta beta access with everyone, we couldn’t help but make two of its features available early.

Enhance Speech

This AI audio filter cleans up spoken audio to make it sound like you recorded in a soundproofed studio.

YouTube: Watch Demo Video

Try out the Enhance Speech Filter

Mic Check

This tool uses AI to analyze your mic setup and gives advice to get better sound out of your microphone. Tells you if you need to come closer, reduce background noise, adjust gain, etc. Great for helping remote guests get better sound quality before you record.

YouTube: Watch Demo Video

Try out Mic Check

These two features work best together. A mic setup that passes the mic check will sound great when you use the enhance speech filter. Let us know what you think, we'd love to hear feedback below.

hello everyone, im working on a project where I have several clean mics for the main guests (neck mics) and two hanging mics (from ceiling) for other guests. The hanging mics are full of noise and the quality is horrible. I have to match these hanging mics with the neck mics or at least make them sound as clean as possible. 'Enhance audio' or 'reduce noise' features are making them sound robotic. Any other way to do that, pls explain like im five! thank you!

After coming from my morning shift, I found myself alone with an opportunity to record my voice in peace. (Too shy to do it when my parents are around) I don’t have a mic yet, so I used my phone to record. The recording wasn’t so terrible but of course it needed lot of work, so I thought about trying Adobe audio enhancer and holy shit it worked!! Removed all the noises!!! I know it’s not like using a microphone, but it’s better than having echo in your videos.

I still need to work on my video, buy just wanted to share my experience because I know some people find it hard to record themselves talking 😁

Are there any AI-powered speech enhancers comparable to it that have API access? So the process can be systematically hooked into another pipeline and automated. I'm expecting it to be a paid service but would like to know what my options are.

Does anyone a plugin (or whatever) for Audacity than can do this?

I am lazy and want to do it within the recording app.

I’ve been using MVSEP to do stem separation lately with excellent results, but I sometimes get some artifacts/high end issues. Is there another algorithm that I can put these seems through that will correct these mistakes or even just add back in the missing high end?

Top answer

Yes, but not in the way you think. I see no reason you can't isolate stuff and then subtract it from the original sound. You must be trying to separate everything out into 'good stems' and then mix from that. Won't work. What you'd be doing is, for instance, subtract the bass. Now that's separate, and you have 'everything not bass'. Then isolate the guitar, subtract that, now you have 'everything not bass or guitar'. Then you do what you need with bass and guitar, and recombine them with the 'negative space' track that is all the not-bass, not-guitar. If it turns out you changed nothing, and you do it perfectly, they recombine back into the original thing again. I do this with EQs a fair bit. You can make it so, if everything's flat, it's the same as bypass. That also means if you have only subtle changes in what are otherwise very obviously isolated tracks and their 'negative space', the artifacts are quieter the closer you are to bypass. It'll work on your stems just as well as it does on my EQs. It's just that rather than 'an EQ band', you're pulling out or boosting 'a whole-ass instrument' because you're using the tech to produce what it thinks is the separated instrument :) I bet the tech makers aren't thinking in these terms because they probably think they can decompose the whole mix using AI and then just remix that. More fools they, that will be hilariously bad. But you can use the negative space trick and it really will work.
