No such thing. Ask away!

!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Rules (interactive)


Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.

All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.



Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.

Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.



Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.



Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.

On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.

If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.



Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.

If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

Like there's video AI to enhance video, but podcasts have so many bad connections with guests it's horrible to listen to. They need to run out through an audio AI.

(Don't even get me started on asking the President questions when the fucking helicopter is in the background. Who tf can hear anything?)

Actually they’ve been here for a very long time.

DeBird is the oldest commercial ML/Audio product I know. It’s around since 2017.

Accentize plugins are the commercial ones.

Also there’s a Waves one.

Nvidia’s RTX Voice can do it in real time since 2020.

And lastly on the open-source end, there’s Intel’s OpenVino for Audacity.

Davinci resolve studio has had a pretty great AI de-noisier for awhile now! They also use AI to be able to turn off certain instruments/parts of songs ( and its local!)

Ultimate Vocal Remover is a FOSS app using FOSS models for creating stems and extracting vocals, but it also has a few de-noising models.

noisetorch does an ok job for video conferences and works on your speaker (easier on you) and on your microphone (easier on them). We often use it to limit keyboard noise during meetings.

I'm using https://auphonic.com/ for my podcasts.

Got a good recommendation for the video one you mentioned? I have some videos digitized from VHS tapes that I'd like to clean up. (I'm only interested in models I can run locally, BTW, for obvious privacy reasons.)

Not aware of any but have a look at https://replicate.com/explore

If you are fine with non-free shit that will probably train with your audio, try out adobe's AI.

Depends on what kind of ai and how much control you want over it. There are some consumer stuff like adobe or elevenlabs, but if a professional is using ai it’s likely either waves or izotope as they give way more control. Personally I use waves, their clarity pro plugins are amazing, but I know several people who use izotope as well.

The problem is doing it in real time and having it sound halfway decent. The only companies who have managed that is waves and Yamaha, the later of which requires hardware that costs $70k+.
