Quickly remove unwanted background sounds from videos

When working with video, sometimes we want to keep certain audio segments and remove others. For example, when recording a tutorial video, you may want to eliminate ambient noise, background music, or other unnecessary sounds. Fortunately, there are many tools now available to help users easily remove unwanted background sounds from videos.

First, let’s introduce a very practical software-Adobe Audition. Adobe Audition is a powerful audio editing software that not only helps users repair audio, but can also be used to extract and edit audio from video files. Here are the steps to remove unwanted background sounds from videos using Adobe Audition:

1. Visit Adobe’s official website to download and install Adobe Audition software. Adobe’s official website address is https://www.adobe.com/cn/products/audition.html

2. After opening Adobe Audition, click the "File" menu, select "Open", and then browse to the video file you want to edit. Select the file and click "Open".

3. After importing the video, Audition will automatically separate the audio in the video. At this point, the video will appear on the timeline and you can see the separated audio track.

4. Click the audio track to enter the waveform view. In waveform view, you can see the audio waveform. Find and amplify unwanted portions of background sound.

5. Use the selection tool (V key) to select the unwanted part of the background sound. After selecting, click the "Edit" menu and select "Delete". Or just press the Delete key on the keyboard.

6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 until all unwanted background sounds are removed.

7. If you need to add background music or other effects, you can use the effects control panel. Select the desired effect, such as equalizer, reverb, etc., in the Effect menu and adjust the parameters as needed.

8. After editing is complete, save the file. Click the File menu, select Save As, and select the desired file format. Adobe Audition supports a variety of audio formats, including WAV, MP3, AIFF, etc.

9. Finally, return to the original video editing software and re-import the processed audio file, replacing the original audio. Once you've finished editing the entire video, export the final version.

In addition to Adobe Audition, there are some free audio editing software that can also accomplish this task, such as Audacity. Audacity is an open source and free audio editing software that is powerful and easy to use. Its official website address is https://www.audacityteam.org/

Through the above methods, you can quickly and effectively remove unwanted background sounds from videos, thereby producing more professional video works.
