This may just be only a pipe dream. But I had a thought about using a track of reversed, room and signal noise/silence to attenuate any S/N in a vocal track. When I record a clip, I usually run 5+ seconds of silence at the end, after my read. My noise floor is usually around -57 to -55dB. Occasionally while recording, the fridge compressor kicks on, in an adjacent room, passing noise through the wall, which is barely audible in the recording. But it is there, nonetheless. So I gate it.
If I were to copy that trailing room/fridge/SN/silence, stretch it to match the time-length of the vocal track, reverse it, and then mix down the two; would that attenuate the underlying noise?
Although I have not experimented with this yet (I will), I want to know your thoughts or experience.
Thanks in advance,
Dale
