Profile Noise Reduction

Learn the noise, then remove it.

Classic profile-based noise reduction, ported one-to-one from WebDAW's clip inspector. Capture a noise print live, or let it find the quietest passage on its own, then set Strength and Mix.

Hold Learn while only the noise is playing, or click From Quiet Passage and the plugin scans the last few seconds of audio for the quietest stretch and builds the profile from it.

The DSP is the same code as WebDAW's feature: the same FFT, window and gain math. The profile is saved with your session.

Features

Two ways to learn
Learn live, or let the plugin find the quietest passage automatically.
Spectral subtraction
Per-bin over-subtraction with a residual floor from −10 to −30 dB.
Smooth results
Gains are smoothed across frequency and time to avoid musical noise.
Session recall
The learned profile is stored with your project.
