Noise Reduction Techniques in Audio Editing

This video tutorial explains how to remove background noise from audio recordings using Adobe Audition. It covers two methods: the Denoise tool, which automatically detects and removes noise, and the Noise Reduction tool, which uses a noise print to clean audio. The tutorial provides step-by-step instructions for each method, including tips for adjusting settings to achieve optimal results. It also suggests additional audio effects for further enhancement.

What is the primary benefit of using headphones when removing noise in Adobe Audition?
