How to Reduce Background Noise in Audio
If you're recording a podcast or video, removing background noise is a must because it can make your audio sound much more professional and polished. Noise cancelling also makes it easier to hear and decipher speech when you're transcribing an audio recording. In addition, noise removal helps people with hearing impairments better understand the audio and what's being said.
But how do you remove noise from audio recordings? There are many ways to clean up audio, but one of the quickest and easiest is to use LALAL.AI Voice Cleaner. This service doesn't require any installation and is always available online on any mobile or desktop device. What's more, Voice Cleaner is based on powerful AI technology that ensures not only fast but also high-quality results.

- Click (▶) next to the Voice preview. You will hear a portion of the voice or vocal sound separated from the background noise.
Tip: If you think that the preview sounds overcompressed, or you hear the sound of noise leaking into the voice track, try changing the Noise Canceling Level.
Click Back in the upper left corner of the window to return to the upload page. In the upload window, click the settings icon. In the Noise Canceling Level section, select one of the following levels:
- Mild to apply no additional compression.
- Normal to enable soft compression.
- Aggressive to add very aggressive compression.
After that, upload your track again and listen to the previews. Adjust the Noise Canceling Level until you get the desired effect.

- Sign up and click Process the Entire File.
- Get your track. It will be available in the same quality as the original file.
