Squeak removal

Postby marmistrz » Sun Oct 30, 2011 7:47 am

Hi
I've got some squeak in a song I found in my backup. I came across such one in Conspiracy of One and Splinter but re-ripping made the job.
But now I have no possibility of re-ripping and the squeak pisses me off (file attached)
What can I do to remove it (starts when song becomes louder, about 5 seconds)
thanks in advance

I honestly can't hear any squeak. But you can try finding the frequency and then performing one of those "infinity negative gain" filters, like notch.

hmm... at the start, when the guy starts singing "run run rudolph", at the syllabe "ru" in rudolph is something i'd call squeak
about 0:13

between ca. 3:03.162 and 3:04.371 he hits a kick drum and every time he hits it, there's some "high frequency content" it'd tell. I'd call it squeak...

Can you really hear that? Cause visually it shows the high frequency content you are talking about at -85db. Look:

its more likely the fundamental at 16khz that is heard (the harmonics are the <-85db elements shown in the graph)
