How it works

Babble is hard because it is itself speech-shaped. The denoiser is trained to hold onto the dominant near-field voice while attenuating the diffuse field of distant talkers, so your speaker stays clear.

What it's good for

  • Vlogs filmed in public
  • Event and conference clips
  • Restaurant and bar recordings
  • Street interviews

Yes. It suppresses the diffuse babble field regardless of which language is spoken in the background or by your foreground speaker.

Those are crowd sounds and are reduced along with chatter, though sharp applause transients may partly remain since they are very brief and loud.
