Compute time does unfortunately go nonlinearly with length of the track to some extent. I treat typically no more than a half hour at once. So select it and fix it and move on, don't fuss with zooming in and out. The surrounding signal is usually unaffected. Yet the nice thing is that you do not have to select the interval around the click very narrowly. But such settings may be too slow and too aggressive for batch treatment.

I successfully treat most of the more resistant clicks by hand with a single pass and double the number of bands: NOT by lowering the dB threshold control. Do you have different opinions about good default settings? Let me know. The default settings in both tools are the ones I favor now for treatment of whole tracks. I did not intend this for music or vinyl repair, but I would like to hear whether it has unexpected other uses. I also present a de-esser using similar methods that fell out as a by-product.ĭe-Clicker is designed for filtering of natural but undesirable noises that take a few milliseconds to decay, not for repairing spikey damage to a digitized signal. Here are the latest improvements to the plug-in I am developing for filtering out of wet mouth noises and clicks from my narrations.
