I have an iPhone voice memo that was captured near a running outdoor hot tub. The water jets and general patio ambience sit on top of the conversation I actually need to hear—the voices speaking inside the room, close to the phone. I need the middle section in particular cleaned up: dial back the water and outdoor rumble and bring the spoken words forward so they are intelligible without headphones or guesswork. Your task is to apply whatever professional restoration tools you prefer (iZotope RX, Audition, etc.) to: • suppress both the water sounds and surrounding outdoor noise, • reveal and clarify the dialogue, and • preserve the natural tone of the speakers so it still sounds like the original people. Please return a high-quality, lossless master (WAV/AIFF) plus an MP3 for easy review. If multiple passes or settings would help, feel free to include them. I will supply the raw recording as soon as we start. Acceptance is simple: when I can play the processed file on normal speakers and clearly follow the conversation—especially through the noisy middle portion—the job is complete.

Hi! I can certainly help you recover that conversation. I have extensive experience in audio restoration and dialogue editing using Logic Pro and professional restoration suites like iZotope RX. My plan for your recording: Surgical Noise Removal: I will use spectral editing to isolate and suppress the frequency of the water jets and outdoor rumble without affecting the human voice. Dialogue Enhancement: I’ll apply precise EQ and compression to bring the spoken words forward, ensuring they are intelligible even on standard speakers. Natural Clarity: My goal is to clean the audio while preserving the original tone of the speakers, avoiding that 'robotic' processed sound. Deliverables: I will provide a high-quality WAV master and an MP3 for quick review. I’m also happy to provide a couple of different versions (varying levels of noise reduction) so you can choose the one that sounds most natural to your ears. Please send over the raw file whenever you're ready, and I'll get to work on that noisy middle section immediately!" Best regards, Wahyu (WG Audio Production)
