Extract noise file from silence + room’s noise
Given a file with silence in its first 0.3sec. :
# sox in.ext out.ext trim {start: s.ms} {duration: s.ms}
sox audio.wav noise-audio.wav trim 0 0.300
# or :
ffmpeg -i audio.wav -vn -ss 00:00:00 -t 00:00:00.300 noise-audio.wav
Generate a noise profile in sox:
sox noise-audio.wav -n noiseprof noise.prof
Clean the noise from the audio
Single file :
sox audio.wav audio-clean.wav noisered noise.prof 0.21
Batch of files:
mkdir -p ./clean;
for file in ./*.wav;do key=$(basename "$file" .wav); sox "$file" ./clean/"$key".wav noisered ./noise.prof 0.21; done;
According to source :
Change 0.21 to adjust the level of sensitivity in the sampling rates (I found 0.2-0.3 often provides best result).
Sources
Fades
To fade-in on 0.3s and out in 0.4s, you can use a simple ./fadeWav.sh bash script, such as:
sox input.wav output.wav fade "0:0.3" `soxi -d input.wav` "0:0.3"
Or as a script:
#! /bin/bash
WAV_IN=$1
WAV_OUT=$2
FADE_IN_L="0:0.3"
FADE_OUT_L="0:0.4"
LENGTH=`soxi -d $WAV_IN`
sox $WAV_IN $WAV_OUT fade $FADE_IN_L $LENGTH $FADE_OUT_L
soxi -d returns the length of the wav file. See sox documentation for more on soxi.
You can run this bash script as follows:
./fadeWav.sh input.wav faded.wav
