Vegas Pro 20 Noise Reduction

robert-engle wrote on 8/25/2022, 6:20 AM

I just upgraded to Vegas Pro 20 last night. I know just like Version 17 it comes with Reduce Noise V.5 or I had that as a plugin don't remember. I see there are a ton of noise reduction plugins to buy. I only edit a video a month maybe three, so I don't need a $500 program!! Do you think the Noise v.5 is just basic and there is a better program? I don't mind spending $100 or so plus or minus if it really makes a difference. I was told all professionals, "I am not", run a noise reduction on their entire video as a standard rule?

Any suggestions on this topic and a plugin that will work with Version 20 would be great.

Thank You,

Bob, Rochester NY

Are you referring to noise reduction for audio or video?

First have a look at Vegas Pro 20's inbuilt Denoise VFX. If that doesn't provide the results you seek, the 3rd party plugin highly regarded on this forum is Neat Video's noise reduction plugin - https://www.neatvideo.com/purchase - it's $129.90 USD. It has a demo version so that you can try it out before buying. I've been using it a lot lately - many times today.

I should add that Neat Video NR is designed to be used on individual events, not as a global VFX for the entire project.

@robert-engle
Because Vegas Pro 17 had no denoiser plugin from its own and you are talking about "Reduce Noise V.5" I think you were using that FX of Neat Video , a third party FX. If it not shows up in VPro 20, you can try to install that plugin again after the installation of VPro 20.

Yes, quite right. Reduce Noise V5 is the VFX name of Neat Video. I must be on auto-pilot when I use it - and it is the latest version of Neat Video NR - and it does work extremely well in VP20.

That's what I sort of thought that I already paid for a Neat video?

Can you guys tell me how to transfer it from 17 to 20 because I have absolutely no idea in the world?

So how do I reinstall it where do I get it from the computer ?I just don't know how to go about this?

Dexcon wrote on 8/25/2022, 8:38 AM

Login to your Neat Video account - which you must have created in order to make the purchase - and download it from there. Do you not keep a copy of the installation files (e.g. the .exe file) and serial number/s on an external drive to avoid such problems?
