A problem dealing with instrument distortion

<< < (2/3) > >>

Twerk:
Try the declick/decrackle algorithms in RX4 instead of the declipper.

Thomas W. Bethel:
I tried all the variants of RX4. The project is completed and he has his master. It is not what I would call a good quality product but he seems happy with the results. I get material like this in all the time so I am going to keep playing with this particular project until I find some solution for the next time. Thanks for the replies...

I now have a good idea of what inter-modulation distortion sounds like...

JSantos:
I often use RX4 for reducing ambient noise. But I never grasped its full potential when it comes to reducing clipping.

If it won't be any trouble to ask you, I'd like to hear a sample of how you've accomplished the flutes. I could definitely use it!

It's impossible to say something valuable without hearing the program. It really depends if the affected section is the only flute or other instruments are also playing when distortion is taking place, and so on.
For solo instruments I used spectral repair successfully and sometimes simple lpf, too. I also replaced damaged repetitive parts with good ones- the most time consuming was looking for a proper replacement source, including start and end points within the same audio track. This method is usually useless with live recording (because the same parts usually varies each time when performed live) but sometimes works for studio work.

This was a live recording and only one take. Thanks for the suggestions.
