now Bruce, that wasn't bad, do you have a copy without the noise reduction?we need some before and after samples. describe what you did if anything to change the settings. I'll possibly if I can find it, give you a troublesome noise print sample to show you what I was trying to work with. my sister was in a nursing home, and my Dad used a camcorder one day so I got the audio from it. the heat pump in the background was noisy as all heck!
