[QUOTE="JAZ, post: 648567, member: 15"] Cool Edit/Adobe Audition does this as well but in a slightly different way. You use noise profiles instead, to do it you need to highlight the hiss/noise at the start before the music comes in. It's important to press record before you start the tape so you have a part at the start of the recording with just tape noise & hiss. Record your tape as normal then goto the effects menu & choose amplify & the centre wave option, once that's done zoom into the start where theres just tape noise & hiss & highlight it making sure no music is highlighted. Now again goto effects & choose noise reduction/noise reduction & select get profile from selection. It will make a little graph so now press ok & you will notice the hiss has been removed. Now highlight all the music & go back to effects/noise reduction/noise reduction & the graph will still be there, press the preview button & you can hear the music with the profile applied, move the slider back if it sounds too washed out until you find the optimum sound (I tend to just use 100%). Press ok & wait a few minutes depending on your cpu power, I have a super fast core2duo 6600 over clocked so it takes about 3 minutes to do a 90 minute tape but it may take 15-20 minutes + if you have an older cpu. You can also normalize the volume like Firthsta suggests but I recommend just getting that part right when you record by keeping an eye on the levels whilst recording. [/QUOTE]
