First thing’s first—with any audio issue, you have to identify what it is in order to treat it. Is it distortion? Hum? Noise from a fan? Once you’ve identified the issue, the question becomes: what tools can you use to treat the audio and get the desired sound?

You can even see which processing chains and the order of the modules Repair Assistant used to treat the audio. Learn more in this video!
