Auphonic
Description
A web service for finishing audio: podcasts, education, video, audiobooks and broadcast. It reduces static and fast-changing noise and reverb, with a choice to keep or remove music. The leveler balances volume between speakers, music and speech, and you can set a target loudness. It has de-essing and de-plosive filters, repairs clipping and codec artifacts, and restores high frequencies. Silence, pauses, coughs and filler words can be cut automatically in several languages. For multitrack recordings it makes a mixdown with ducking, a noise gate and mic bleed removal. There is speech-to-text with show notes and chapters, an API, a command-line tool, watch folders, and publishing to podcast hosts and video platforms.
