Your Guest's Audio Doesn't Have to Sound Like Their KitchenRemote Interview Audio Cleaner
You spent time treating your room and picking the right mic — but your guest recorded on a laptop in a hotel room with the AC blasting. Their track has fan noise, room echo, and ambient hum that yours doesn't. Upload the noisy guest track and let AI clean it so both sides of the conversation sound like they belong in the same recording. Supports MP3, WAV, M4A, FLAC, and OGG up to 500 MB.
Upload the guest track separately for the best results. Cleaning individual tracks gives the AI a cleaner signal to work with than a mixed-down stereo file.
Built for remote interviews
Tuned for the uneven audio quality that shows up when one person records in a treated room and the other records wherever they happen to be.
Per-track cleaning
Upload the noisy guest track on its own. The AI focuses entirely on that speaker's noise profile without interference from your cleaner audio.

Compare the original and cleaned guest track side by side. Download only when you are satisfied the voice sounds natural and the noise is gone.
Quick answer
Denoisr is a remote interview audio cleaner that fixes the quality gap between your track and your guest's track. The core problem with remote interviews is asymmetry: you control your recording environment, but your guest is in their kitchen, hotel room, coffee shop, or open-plan office. Their track picks up laptop fans, HVAC hum, room echo, and ambient noise that yours does not. Denoisr's AI analyzes the noise profile on the guest's track and reduces steady background sounds while preserving the natural tone of their voice. The result is a guest track that matches your audio quality more closely, so the finished interview sounds like a cohesive conversation instead of two people in wildly different rooms. Upload the noisy track, let it process, compare original to cleaned, and bring the cleaned file back into your editor.
Clean your interview audio right here
Upload the guest track or full interview recording. The AI analyzes the noise profile and reduces background sounds without touching the voice.
Works best with spoken-word interview recordings: guest tracks, remote conversations, and multitrack exports from interview platforms.
Drop your interview file here
Upload the guest track from Riverside, Squadcast, Zoom, or Google Meet. Separate tracks work best, but mixed recordings are supported too.

Honest expectations
What remote interview cleanup handles — and where it has limits
AI denoising works best on the steady, predictable noise that plagues most guest recordings. It cannot fix every problem, and knowing the limits helps you get better results.
Works well for
- Guest's laptop fan running throughout the interview
- Hotel HVAC noise on a guest recording from a conference trip
- Home office AC hum picked up by the guest's USB microphone
- Coffee shop ambient noise at a steady level behind the guest
- Room echo and reverb from a guest recording in an untreated room
- Electrical buzz and ground-loop hum on the guest's audio interface
May not fully fix
- Coffee shop where a barista yells an order mid-sentence
- Guest recording on speakerphone with your voice echoing back
- Two guests talking over each other simultaneously on the same track
- Heavy distortion from a guest's clipped microphone input
- A guest's child or pet making unpredictable loud noises in the background
- Music or TV audio playing loudly in the guest's room at speech-level volume
How it works
How to clean a remote interview recording
Export the guest track from your recording platform, upload it here, and bring the cleaned file back to your editor. Three steps, no plugins.
Export the guest track from your recording platform
Download the separate guest track from Riverside, Squadcast, Zoom, or Google Meet. If you only have a mixed file, that works too — but individual tracks give the best results because the AI can focus on one speaker's noise profile.
Upload and choose a cleanup mode
Drag and drop the guest track here. Select Clean Noise for a conservative pass, Enhance Voice for loudness balancing and vocal polish, or Podcast Ready to also strip filler words and trim long silences.
Compare, download, and bring it back to your editor
Play the original and cleaned tracks side by side. When you are satisfied, download the cleaned file and drop it back into your DAW or video editor to replace the noisy guest track.
Interview scenarios
Six types of remote interviews Denoisr cleans up
Whether you are a podcast host, a journalist on deadline, or a researcher transcribing field interviews, these are the situations where cleaning the guest track makes the biggest difference.
Podcast interview cleanup
Your guest recorded on their laptop mic in a living room with a ceiling fan running. Their track has steady hum and room tone that makes the conversation sound unbalanced next to your treated-room audio. Clean the guest track so both sides match.
Journalism interview rescue
You recorded a source over Zoom and the audio has AC hum, keyboard taps, and a faint echo. The quotes are important but the recording quality is rough. Clean it up before pulling clips for your story or handing it to a transcription service.
Research interview for transcription
Academic and UX researchers record dozens of interviews over video calls. Noisy audio leads to transcription errors that take hours to correct manually. Cleaning the audio first gives your transcription tool a cleaner signal and more accurate output.
Job interview recording
Hiring teams that record candidate interviews for review need clean playback. A candidate's noisy home office can make their answers hard to hear on replay. Clean the recording so the review panel can focus on content, not audio quality.
Panel discussion with multiple guests
You hosted a remote panel with three guests, each in a different environment. One has fan noise, another has room echo, the third is fine. Export each track and clean the noisy ones individually before mixing the panel together.
Documentary remote segments
Documentary projects often include remote interviews with subjects who cannot be in studio. The audio needs to match the production quality of the rest of the film. Clean the remote tracks so they sit naturally alongside studio-recorded narration.
Why interviewers choose Denoisr
Fix the guest-track quality gap without learning audio engineering
The problem with remote interviews is not your setup — it is your guest's. You cannot control their environment, but you can clean their track after the fact. Denoisr handles the noise reduction so you can focus on the conversation.
Per-track cleaning beats mixed-file processing
When you clean the guest track on its own, the AI only has to deal with one noise profile. Cleaning a mixed stereo file forces it to handle two different environments at once, which produces worse results. Always clean tracks separately when you have them.
Adapts to each guest's environment
Every guest records in a different room with different noise. The AI analyzes the specific noise profile in each file — fan speed, room size, HVAC tone — rather than applying a one-size-fits-all filter.
Works with every major interview platform
Riverside multitrack exports, Squadcast separate downloads, Zoom local recordings, Google Meet recordings, and standard audio exports from any video call platform. If it saves as MP3, WAV, M4A, FLAC, or OGG, Denoisr can clean it.
Clean before you transcribe
Noisy interview audio produces noisy transcripts full of errors. Running the guest track through Denoisr first gives your transcription tool — whether it is Denoisr's own transcript generator, Otter, or Descript — a much cleaner input.
Preserves the guest's natural voice
Aggressive noise removal can make a voice sound hollow and robotic. Denoisr's model is tuned to reduce background noise without stripping the warmth and character that makes each speaker sound like themselves.
No plugins or DAW skills required
You do not need to learn spectral editing, noise gates, or EQ curves. Upload the file, pick a mode, compare the result, and download. The entire process runs in your browser.

Denoisr facts for remote interviewers
Remote Interview Audio Cleaner — frequently asked questions
Should I clean the guest track or the full mix?+
Clean the guest track separately whenever possible. When you upload a mixed stereo file, the AI has to handle two different noise environments at once — your clean room and your guest's noisy one. By uploading the guest track on its own, the AI can focus entirely on that speaker's noise profile and produce a cleaner result. Most interview platforms like Riverside and Squadcast export separate tracks for exactly this reason.
Does it work with Zoom recordings?+
Yes. Zoom saves local recordings as M4A or MP4, and cloud recordings as MP4. Download the file and upload it here. If Zoom only gave you a combined recording with both speakers, it will still work — the AI reduces the dominant background noise — but results are better when you can upload individual tracks. For separate tracks, consider recording through Riverside or Squadcast alongside Zoom.
What about Riverside multitrack exports?+
Riverside exports each participant as a separate high-quality audio file, which is ideal for per-track cleaning. Download the guest's individual track from Riverside, upload it to Denoisr, clean it, and then bring the cleaned file back into your Riverside project or DAW for final editing. The same workflow applies to Squadcast and any other platform that offers multitrack export.
Can I clean both tracks separately?+
Absolutely. If both tracks have noise — maybe you were also in a less-than-perfect environment — upload each one individually and clean them as separate files. This gives the AI the best chance to adapt to each track's unique noise profile. Then combine the cleaned tracks in your editor. Each track is billed independently based on its duration.
What if my guest was on speakerphone?+
Speakerphone recordings are one of the harder cases. The guest's speaker plays your voice back into their microphone, creating a feedback loop that mixes your voice into their noise floor. Denoisr can reduce the steady background noise on a speakerphone recording, but it cannot fully separate the echo of your own voice bleeding back in. For best results, ask guests to use headphones or earbuds during the interview.
