Audio Restoration

Audio Restoration

Bad audio can sink a great picture. Audio restoration rescues compromised recordings — location dialogue ruined by noise, archival material degraded by age, or interviews marred by hum and reverb — and brings them back to broadcast quality. Using iZotope RX and surgical spectral editing, I recover takes you thought were lost, often saving the cost and schedule of reshoots or ADR.

What Audio Restoration Fixes

  • Noise reduction — air conditioning, traffic, hiss and broadband noise
  • Hum & buzz removal — 50/60Hz electrical hum and harmonics
  • De-clicking & de-crackle — digital clicks, mouth noise, vinyl and tape artefacts
  • De-essing & de-reverb — harsh sibilance and unwanted room reflections
  • Dialogue repair — reconstructing distorted, clipped or partially lost lines

My Restoration Process

Every restoration starts with careful analysis and identifying what’s recoverable followed by surgical work in iZotope RX Advanced. The goal is always natural, intelligible audio that sits convincingly in the mix.

Common Use Cases

  • Location and production dialogue cleanup for film and television
  • Archival and legacy media restoration
  • Podcast and interview audio rescue
