How to Remove Unwanted Audio from A Video |
While recording a video, one important precaution that you need to take is to make sure that all background disturbances are silenced. Otherwise you may end up with undesirable background sounds and noises and that can be really annoying. For instance, suppose you have recorded a video that also has your voice narration as well. But if it contains background disturbances and unwanted sounds, your narration won't be clearly heard and the entire video will be ruined. So you need to keep this aspect in mind while
shooting a video.
But even after taking precautions, if your video ends up having undesired background noises, you need not worry because now we have an easy solution to this problem - you can actually detach the audio part from the video and remove it if you don't want it. For doing that, you will need a good video editor that can remove unwanted audio from a video.
I have explained below in 6 easy steps as to how you can remove all unwanted sounds from your recorded video with the help of a video editor program:
Step 1 : Install the software
First of all, you need to select a good video editing software from all the potential video editors available, based on their features and user reviews.

Step 5 : (Optional) Adding custom music to the video in place of removed audio
This step is optional but if you wish, you can add some music (be it some instrumental that suits the theme of your video) or your recorded narration to the video. For doing that, you can either select your own music saved in your computer drive or can choose from the several music options given in Filmora's library.
