Remove Background Noise from Audio
Remove background noise from audio online in a couple of minutes: upload a recording, choose a processing mode and download clean sound. The tool removes background noise, hum, microphone hiss and echo, and makes the voice clearer and easier to understand. Nothing to install or configure — it works as an online audio cleaner for any recording: podcast, interview, lecture, voice memo or dictaphone recording.
What Noise You Can Remove from an Audio Recording
- Background noise — traffic, air conditioning, office chatter.
- Hum and hiss — electrical buzz and noise from cheap microphones. Read how to remove microphone hiss and hum.
- Wind — if the recording was made outdoors. See remove wind noise.
- Echo and reverb — if you recorded in an empty or “boomy” room.
- Background music — if you need to keep only the voice. For this, see the background music remover.
- Breaths, coughs, pauses and filler words — for podcasts and voice-overs.

FAQ
How do I remove background noise from audio for free?
Upload a file and choose a mode. The first 30 seconds of 2 files are processed for free — enough to hear the result before paying.
What if my recording has music in it?

What if the recording has echo?
Choose Voice Cleaner (keep music), Partial Deverb. It reduces echo and reverb in recordings made in empty or “boomy” rooms. More on the echo remover page.
