Enhance audio
Final Cut Pro includes several powerful tools for both analyzing and enhancing the
audio portion of clips, including:
 Loudness: Improves the main audio signal and makes it more uniform.
 Background Noise Removal: Reduces background noise.
 Hum Removal: Reduces common electrical hum noise at either 50 or 60 Hz.
You can analyze audio and adjust loudness, background noise, and hum using the
Audio Enhancements inspector. You can also analyze and x audio problems when
you import a clip.
The Audio Enhancements section of the Audio inspector also includes:
 Equalization: Enhances the high-end (treble), midrange, or low-end (bass)
frequencies.
All enhancements are designed to correct most common audio problems
automatically or with minor adjustments.
Note: When you import a clip, the analyze and x audio function only corrects severe
audio problems. If the clip contains moderate problems, these appear in yellow next
to Audio Analysis in the Audio Enhancements section of the Audio inspector after
the clip is imported. To correct these, you need to automatically enhance audio in the
Audio Enhancements inspector.
