Noise Reduction and Signal Purification
MuScene Voice Forensics Laboratory specializes in identifying noise characteristics and suppressing noise. Our acoustic laboratory equipment and spectral analysis identification system allow us to precisely locate noise bands, harmonic characteristics, and their fundamental and harmonic frequencies.
We can effectively improve the sound quality of various recording formats, including meeting recordings, court recordings, voice interceptions, surveillance recordings, remote recordings, phone taps, concert recordings, and more.
There are numerous considerations and procedures involved in processing audio evidence for legal proceedings. MuScene Voice Forensics Laboratory has extensive experience and skills in evidence handling, ensuring that every step of the process, from the original, unprocessed audio to the final noise-reduced version, is meticulously documented and can withstand scientific scrutiny. We guarantee that the audio content remains unaltered and undistorted throughout the process.
Noise reduction techniques can be applied to suppress full-spectrum noise or specific frequency bands. However, noise reduction can also affect the desired audio content, especially in complex acoustic environments with full-spectrum noise or high noise levels. This can impact the interpretation of the audio content and even distort the perceived results.
To avoid distortion and artifacts caused by aggressive noise reduction, the MuScene team sometimes employs signal purification and voice extraction techniques to preserve audio information and enable accurate speech recognition and scene reconstruction. Our in-depth understanding of sound spectra and physical acoustics allows us to target specific noise spectra for removal and extract desired voice features from complex acoustic environments.
Signal Amplification and Enhancement
Audio files that have undergone noise reduction or voice extraction often require additional signal amplification and enhancement. We achieve this by increasing volume, sound pressure, and sound energy density.
For audio files such as music performances, speeches, and voiceovers, we employ similar post-processing techniques, such as mastering, to achieve optimal sound quality, including increased resolution and signal amplification.
Beyond simple volume amplification (Gain, Volume, Trim), signal amplification often involves dynamic processing using tools like compressors and limiters to increase sound energy density and highlight underlying details. However, when boosting volume and increasing loudness, it's crucial to carefully monitor waveform amplitude to avoid clipping, which can distort the sound and degrade audio quality.
MuScene Voice Forensics Laboratory employs a comprehensive range of tools and equipment, combined with our extensive experience, to tailor audio processing solutions for each case and client. Our goal is to ensure that we achieve the desired outcome for every project.
Important Notes:
MuScene Voice Forensics Laboratory employs distinct processing principles and intensities for different scenarios, such as legal proceedings, crime scene recordings, and concert recordings. To ensure optimal results, please consult with us prior to commissioning our services.
Crime scene recordings often present challenges due to high levels of ambient noise. We will apply high-intensity noise reduction techniques in combination with various algorithms to generate multiple processed versions for your review. Please note that the quality of the processed audio may vary depending on the quality of the original recording.
