[speex-dev] reduction of noise due to high microphone gain
This works really well for white noise reduction. However what I've noticed was the amplitudes of normal speech samples also get reduced. Is this something by design, or is there a way to automatically recover the original speech sample volumes ? <p>Thanks. <p>Tongbiao <p>-----Original Message----- From: Jean-Marc Valin [mailto:jean-marc.valin@hermes.usherb.ca] Sent: Tuesday, August 12, 2003 12:44 PM To: speex Cc: Tongbiao Li Subject: Re: [speex-dev] reduction of noise due to high microphone gain Hi, You might want to try the denoiser I've got in CVS (that will go into Speex 1.1 eventually). It will remove stationary noise from the signal and probably help the silence detection. See testdenoise.c for how to use it. There's also a better VAD in the denoiser but speex_encode cannot make use of it yet.

I'll try adding an option to control that. Jean-Marc -- Jean-Marc Valin, M.Sc.A., ing. jr.
