Fix Bad Audio Fast
from Femous
Recording near a concrete truck means fighting wind, engine noise, and general chaos. The simplest fix is also free: move further from the noise source. Even while keeping the truck in frame, adding physical distance changes what the microphone actually picks up. When distance isn't enough, getting the mic closer to your mouth does a lot of work. Your voice becomes louder relative to everything else, which pushes background noise further down in the mix. A windshield helps with wind specifically, and a quieter location, when accessible, remains the cleanest option of all. For situations where there's no external mic at all, Detail's on-device audio enhancement handles the kind of background noise that makes a clip otherwise unusable. It runs entirely on your phone, processes near-instantly, and your audio never leaves the device. It's a pro feature, but for anyone shooting in unpredictable environments, it turns a salvageable clip into a usable one. Published on Subwave https://subwave.app/@femous/post/fix-bad-audio-fast
