The RX 8 Voice De-noiser is pretty magical.I don’t love how it sounds, though, so unless the hum is particularly bad, I usually keep it off. For reasons I haven’t figured out, I sometimes have hum in my signal, so I keep RX 8 De-hum around.First up is AUHipass (labeled HPF), which I use to get rid of low-frequency energy that’s really just rumble and other noise.Then there are several blocks Audio Units plugins to process my mic audio:.I leave plenty of headroom and compress it later (more on that below), but want to make sure it’s high enough, too. As part of proper gain staging, I want to make sure that the gain knob of the interface is set correctly, so I stuck in a PFL meter block.The mic is a mono device on input 1 the USB interface, so there’s a Channels block to duplicate input 1 so it comes out on both channels.My actual, physical microphone is plugged into my USB interface’s input, which shows up here as the input block labeled Mic.Far side audio runs through a volume control (that I pretty much always keep at 100%), then directly on to my USB audio interface so I can hear it (the block labeled Monitoring).Call audio comes into the block labeled “Call far side” from the device called BlackHole 16ch because the call app is using it as its speaker.It looks like a lot, but talking through it from top to bottom, left to right: As with before, I’m using BlackHole to create two virtual audio devices: a 2-channel device I use as the call app’s mic, and a 16-channel device I use as the call app’s speaker. Instead of Reaper, I set up Audio Hijack. I’ve been an occasional Audio Hijack user since 2004, but I knew right away that this had the potential to bring it into daily use.Īs I wrote a couple years ago, I had been using a DAW, Reaper, to route and process my everyday call audio, but that seemed heavy, and definitely not what it was designed for. With Audio Hijack 4, Rouge Amoeba added the ability to manually edit connections. Call audio update: Audio Hijack January 10, 2023
