SoundSoap Pro's unique and comprehensive approach combines hum, rumble, click, crackle, and broadband noise reduction tools with a sophisticated noise gate, in a single intuitive user interface.
Unlike other audio restoration tools, this streamlined, tab-based interface guides the user through the various tools in a way that yields the best results in the least amount of time.
Even the faintest hum or rumble can ruin an otherwise perfect instrumental solo or irreplaceable dialog performance. Need to remove 60 Hz hum, 50 Hz hum, anything in between, or anything a lot lower? This tool gives you complete control over Q (filter width), depth, frequency, and harmonics. And in case you don't trust your ears, we've included a handy hum meter as your guide.
The type of noise known as "hum" is typically composed of a fundamental frequency (such as 60 Hz) and its harmonics, and is often associated with audio equipment being used on faulty electrical circuts, or equipment that is not properly grounded. Rumble is a similar type of noise to hum — but typically occurs at lower frequencies, usually at around 40 Hz or below.
SoundSoap Pro's Hum & Rumble tool effectively eliminates buzzing and hum from RFI, EMI and other sources. It operates from 20 - 500 Hz w/Q (Hum and Rumble), up to nine harmonics (Hum), and reduces low-frequency and subsonic rumble.

Advanced Presets: SoundSoap Pro's advanced presets allow you to save all parameter settings for later recall. When loading a preset, you can choose to load in all saved parameters, or just those for particular noise reduction tools
A/B/C/D "Snapshots": Use up to four temporary memory "snapshots" for quickly comparing different settings.
Help: While SoundSoap Pro is designed to be intuitive to use, there may be times when you need to refer to the user guide. The Help button automatically opens the SoundSoap Pro user guide for reference.
Noise Only: Noise Only is a global tool, available in any of SoundSoap Pro's tools. Noise Only mode allows you to hear audio that is being removed with the current settings, and is useful for evaluating your noise reduction progress.
Getting Started: This area contains quick"Getting Started" tips, and is a perfect reference for new users.
Tool State Thumbnails: These convenient graphics allow you to keep an eye on all tool settings at the same time, even when working in a specific tool.
Recommended Processing Order: The step numbers indicated here are proven to provide the best audio restoration results. First, clean up the low-frequency noise, then the random clicks & crackles, then broadband noise, and finish things off with an industrial-strength noise gate.
