This is entirely my fault, and I've learnt from my mistake, but I've managed to record a 7 hour voiceover (yes, 7 hours... plus about 10 hours editing 
) with the gain on my preamp set too high This was due to me not spending enough time setting up - the SM7B mic was too far away from the vocalist and I didn't register it
So, the full 7 hours of recording is full of noise. It's not TERRIBLE, but believe me, I can't put it on a CD like this! I've been messing about with Waves XNoise and XHum, and I've got some decent results. Also tried Nuendo's built in Noise Filter, which is ok, but not quite adequate.
Are there any other techniques I can use to get rid of the noise? EQ maybe? As I've not needed to work with noise before, I've no experience with it and I'm finding it hard to remove the noise without losing some of the vocal quality / the sound distorting / modulating. Any hints would be massively appreciated.
