How do I remove or reduce pops and clicks on old vinyl albums?
There are several pop/click filters available from different sources. I tend to use either the GoldWave Pop/Click Filter (described above) or Arboretum Systems’ RayGun. RayGun has a very simple user interface and does a very good job of reducing pops and clicks, as well as applying several other noise filters. As far as I can see, RayGun has only two disadvantages: (1) It is expensive…almost as much by itself as GoldWave costs; and (2) you cannot apply it to only a section of the audio material. As I have previously said, pop and click filtering can be very effective even when it’s only applied to a few quiet sections of the audio material. Applying it to the entire file might have a negative impact on the overall sound quality. Return.
