Adobe Audition VS Audacity : Which software did better noise reduction?

does noise reduction in free software audacity and paid software Adobe Audition work the same I am talking about white background noise like constant hissing noise we will find out soon I have this recording with extreme White Noise during the recording of this audio I kept the ceiling fan on I have normalized this recording to -3 DB so it has a good volume level but the problem is the noise is also extreme let's hear it a bit to understand the noise during this recording the ceiling fan is on so it is expected a very strong hissing noise will be recorded I think audition or parts a bit I will remove noise from this audio using both audacity and Adobe Audition I will take noise samples from the first two seconds on both software so both software will have the same noise sample I will reduce Noise by 30 DB you may be thinking this much noise reduction will destroy the audio quality well let's find out I guess you already know the noise reduction process in audacity so I am not going into the details of that I set noise reduction of 30 DB and other values at 6. before playing this audio let me fast forward the noise reduction process in Adobe Audition you will find links in the description to learn details of noise reduction in audacity or Adobe Audition I will set noise reduction strength to 75 percent in Adobe Audition the noise reduction amount will be 30 DB the same as I did in audacity I also changed the spectral Decay rate to 40 percent I will apply this setting and Export a WAV file from audition I am skipping the details of the export process in audition I have exported a WAV file after reducing noise from audition and I will drag that file to audacity we will listen to both files and see if they have the same impact first I will play the Adobe Audition version and then the audacity version during this recording the sitting pen is on so it is expected a very strong missing noise will be recorded I think additional Parts a bit more flexibility in audio in noise removable than Adobe than audacity during this recording the ceiling fan is on so it is expected a very strong acing noise will be recorded I think audition offers a bit more flexibility in audio in noise removal then we see quite some difference in the audio quality though they reduce the Noise by the same amount audacity's audio quality degraded pretty much to be useful but Adobe auditions processed audio was quite good if you already have some experience in audacity you may know we should not try to reduce Noise by 30 DB we should stay between 6 to 12 DB noise reduction in audacity I will return before noise reduction and apply a noise reduction with 12 DB I will do the same thing with audition and compare the audio sample I am working on has a strong noise so a 12 DB reduction will keep some noticeable noise I want to see if both software's audio quality Remains the Same I will set 12 DB in the Reduce by slider other configurations will be the same as before the top track is from audacity and the bottom is from auditions let's hear both and compare I will play The Audacity version First during this recording the sitting pen is on so it is expected a very strong kissing noise will be recorded during this recording the ceiling fan is on so it is expected a very strong kissing noise will be recorded we can hear the White Noise a bit in both audios but the addition has smoother audio once again audacity introduces some harshness after noise reduction even with a 12 DB noise reduction I think additional Parts a bit more flexibility in audio in nice removal then I think additional Parts a bit more flexibility in audio in noise removal then of course audacity is free and it's amazing how far we can go with audacity audition is a good choice when you have professional grade work I intended to show you a comparison and hope you experience the difference thanks for watching and see you next
