Audible background noises are usually louder than the signal and are
generally restricted to a certain frequency spectrum. They are
therefore highlighted in the spectrogram in color and can be easily
encircled and removed with the mouse.
For example, you can
recognize the held tone from a
pattern consisting of
horizontal lines that
correspond with the
harmonics of the sound (see
illustration on the left). A
pulsed noise is characterized
by a vertical line. The right
illustration displays a tone
overlapping a short noise.

In MAGIX Spectral Cleaning Editor you can now simply mark and
"remove" all noises with the mouse. Lost elements of the original
frequency spectrum are then added from the signal surrounding the
noise in order to avoid audible gaps.
MAGIX Spectral Cleaning is ideal for all short but clear sounds in the
music, such as clicking, coughing and even short drop-outs, but NOT
for permanent disturbances such as hiss or noise. In such a case
please use the DeHisser or DeNoiser.
Operation
Select the object and position the play cursor at the approximate
location of the noise. Then open the Spectral Cleaning Editor with the
toolbar button or via the "Edit" menu -> "Spectral Cleaning".
