You just shot an awesome interview, and you thought it was great! But when it came time to edit, all you could hear was background noise! Is your footage ruined? Find out in today's exciting episode of Fixing Your Video!
In this video:
- We try using Audacity to clean up the audio, then step up our game and use SoundSoap 3.

Really useful video! Insane that this level of production value only has 2k views. I actually laughed out loud twice!
