Tips on how to remove audio clicks please

[Hippo-Drones]

hey, I find some of my videos have clicks and knocks in them where the camera case taps on stuff of what have you. Does anyone have any tips on how to easily remove them without cutting the video too?

I've had to edit out bad sounds/language a few times. Not sure if there is an easier way but I split the vid before and after the noise event, then lower the volume of the section in the middle.

If your not speaking when you can hear it just remove it.

I cut out almost all my non speaking sections now.

External mic could sort it. If itself does not hit anything, it will not pick up those knocks (at least not that loud). Otherwise you can't avoid recording that, because hitting something generates sound, and microphones only job is to capture sounds.
Once the clicks are already recorded, you will need to either cut them out, or manage to create a very similar sound, and invert it, to try to remove the clicks with that, in a good audio editor. But that one is a lot of work.

If you're riding the Guzzi, you should slap Droid noises over the clicks and knocks.

More seriously, if it isn't during dialogue, then cut the audio out, cut in and out two seconds of audio before the empty space, clone that two seconds and fit it below the empty space and trim accordingly to fit in the empty space in the audio channel on the timeline. If its during dialogue, go with the Droid noises.

Alternatively, I just reduce the section volume by 6-12db , just enough so it won't be annoying.

haha, love the droid noises!

You could remove them with adobe audition

Yes, it costs, there are other freeware you can use like audacity.

I´d preffer to eliminate the source of the clicking noise instead of correcting it during the editing process

This guy has some good tips for audio. It's not restricted to Sony Vegas software.

Hope this helps:

Have you seen the gods must be crazy?

Just do a montage of all the clicks.
