I've been using this Adobe tool for a few days and I've come to the same conclusions as you have outlined here, specifically: 1. This tool tends to transform very "live" audio to very "dead" audio and sounds unnatural when matched-up with video recorded in a large physical space, where one would expect to hear at least some background ambience. 2. You are correct in believing that the enhanced voice audio is actually an AI "recreation" of the original voice, hence the enhanced audio voice has a tendency to sound slightly "robotic". 3. Therefore, mixing-in the original audio with the enhanced audio tends to lessen the robotic effect and sound significantly more natural. As with all AI tools, this tool's capabilities will improve as it learns from user input audio and we can expect this tool to get even better over time. For now, it is clearly good enough for a lot of audio use cases where the original input audio requires tweaking which is simply beyond the capabilities of existing non-AI tools. Frankly, I plan to use the Adobe Voice Enhancer a lot in my post-production activities. It does a darn good job of enhancing the use cases I deal with.
Ye gods, you saved me big time- was missing my lav mic for a dialogue piece and used a really funky old mic at last minute, just hoping for the best, and the results were awful and I was going to just sit down and re-record the whole thing. Today. And then I saw this and it worked brilliantly. Thank you good sir.
First timer on your page, I really like the idea on blending in the enhanced version with the original, it'll really solve the problem of preventing it from sounding a bit unnatural. I'd also like to request DaVinci resolve tutorials if possible. Maybe you know a recommended channel to learn it from scratch, I'm new into audio and video editing, it's a bit overwhelming when I open Resolve Welldone on your content
Thanks for the kind words! Appreciate you taking the time. There are heaps of great channels to learn Resolve for free on RUclips. One of my favourites is Chadwick with Creative Video Tips!
Great thought. I think it's a fundamentally different technology under the hood (I could be wrong here), but Voice isolation does a great job. I'll have to make a comparison video with these tools, along with documentary editing part 2 and a music masterclass. You're giving me a lot of ideas for future videos :-)
@@JoshuaKirkNZ Coming up with ideas for other people to do is easy. Making these valuable tutorials is no doubt a lot of work -- that is much appreciated. Thanks again!
I am not even joking, sometimes adobe podcast produces creepy voices, like someone else is talking and it happened to me. Try to remain quite then talk, quite then talk until it starts sounding super creepy, saying cant breethe, air of feet or other very disturbing words.
It's unpredictable and takes a bit of time to round trip out of Davinci and back in, but it's fun to see the AI world developing. What's not working for you?
@@vinstractor I have found the same issue, it doesn't recognize many audio file types and also it doesn't really ehance the files well, it makes them sound digital and unrecognizible at time!? Until now I haven't been able to export not a single file correctly yet?
@@danthelostmacedonianinmexico me too, until now i haven't obtain any edited archive, i hace try with many formats and quality. If you take with the problemas please notice me, i'll do the same...

Thanks for the watch and for these thoughts! Like any tool it is good for some specific use cases.

Great to hear it helped!
We used on a few quick turn around projects, we received funky Vo, worked like a charm 90% of the time! Great video!
Great to hear!

Thank you
whoa!
The Idea to blend is genius bro!
Thanks mate 🙌
Amazing! How do you think this compares to Davinci's new Voice Isolation feature?

Because it transcribes and re-synthesizes your voice it sometimes gets the words wrong
Yeah i've had mixed results.
Its actually really good it would make my work flow much easier
Awesome!
Not sure why you didn’t compare it to the new Voice isolation filter in Resolve 18.1?? I thought it does exactly the same.
Interesting. I'll have a good look at this. Thanks for the new video idea haha 🙌

Can we do the "same" kind of enhance on Premiere Pro? If not, shouldn't we able to be since we are paying for Adobe's services anyways?
I don't think there is an integration yet but maybe in the future!
Nice!
👍
Adobe podcast speech enhancement doesn't works properly, fails a lot...

@@JoshuaKirkNZ I've been trying with many files proceding from different sources and the ai don't recognise a lot of them.

Sir why it doesn't working
Not sure sorry mate. Let me know what you are having issues with.
nice!
Thanks!
You were just unnecessarily over critical of this tech. It does a gr8 job imo
It does a great job for some use cases.
