Used to work in radio ages ago, and suddenly got some audio editing to do in my new job. These tutorials are absolutely fantastic to get back in the game! Also it's amazing how much the tech has evolved to become so much more accessible for everyone these days, compared to when I had this as a day job. Love it! Radio/audio will always have a special place in my heart. Such a great medium <3

[HashaamSiddiq]

You continue to surprise me and my audio quality keeps getting better by following your amazing videos. Excellent work Mike. Learned a lot from you.

[tjmstravian]

Thank you very much for all your tutorials. They are well structured, accessible and easy to follow and understand. I watched some tutorials in German first, but they tend to overcomplicate things. Please keep up your good work!

[camilleromney]

I don't know why anyone bothers watching anything other than your videos. They're clear and incredibly helpful.

[jackedkerouac]

My buddy who also does voice over moved from Reaper to Audition and wanted to know how he can learn it fast. I instantly shared your channel. Keep up the great work Mike!

[GeorgeDakki]

your proficiency of audition is off the charts! thanks mike, you are a life saver as always!

[christoffelbotha]

I read for several of the comments and and they all are well beyond positive. Awesome work Mike, you've definitely set a high benchmark for others to follow.

[whisperboy]

Amazing, intuitive and educational! Thank you Mike! You are a genuine problem solver.

For an audio neophyte like myself, with little time to spare to learn more about fixing sound, this video alone saved me a lot of time. Thanks!

[christoffelbotha]

This is the best Tutorial I've come across on noise reduction and deserves an A++. Thanks Mike!

[lordvayne]

Amazing stuff my dude! Clear, well structured and it really works. We need people like you, you beautiful hero.

[hoangcuca]

Thank a million of times. I was nearly hopeless after trying every noise reduction until I got to know the spot healing brush tool from your video. You saved my life. All the best for you.

[CDWorksDubai]

Im a web designer, but hearing this tutorial.. makes me switch to another part of dimension. Thank you for sharing, I really learn a lot. More power to your videos!

[azizthani]

Appreciate your work Mike. I'm a podcaster and I have applied a lot of what I learnt on your channel. Much love

You sir are an audio wizard, this is huge help to me. My wife records yoga classes and every once in awhile you hear the dogs feet on the hardwood floors. I’ll be trying these methods to see if I can correct it now in the future.

[Urmilpatel]

My fifth video in a single hour. I am flattered by your genius. Thank you very much for making this video. It will be helpful, since I live in a noisy apartment which is not good for recording.

[miraclewalkerproductions]

Thank you, this is the first one of these instructional videos I could actually follow clearly. Thank you very much for deciphering this for people like myself. You have a great voice too BTW. Cheers
