Re: [LAU] command line cricket removal tool?

Hello Rusty!
   The best cricket removal tool of course is someone, who captures or kills
it.
   The next best thing could be playing with phase inverted signals. If you
have two microphones, you could connect them both, use one for your recording
and direct another away from your own noise production. If possible as
striahgt as you can towards the offender. I'm not absolutely sure about all
the mechanics of such a process, but it shold work, if the signals are
synchronous. Others might have to say more about that.
   the other option is filtering and EQ'ing. If th cricket doesn't cover too
much sonic space or doesn't interfere too much with your intended frequencies,
you could try an equaliser. You can sweep the bands and find the sweet spots
for the cricket and lower them as much as possible. If the cricket offers a
lot of high frequencies you could probably even work with some more drastic
lowpass fitlering. that doesn't work for every instrument.
   The third - and from a technical point easiest - method would be to compose
a lullaby or other nature-friendly music and claim, that the cricket is
intentional and from your personal sound library. :-)
