NoNoise

Our Mission

NoNoise Audio produces AI audio plugins that streamline dialogue editing — delivering large cost-savings for studios and content creators of all sizes. We harness deep-learning through AI neural networks, carrying out specific learning locally, and use that intelligence to automate the stripping of audio of non-targeted speakers.

The Problem

Editors in film, TV, podcasting and radio waste 30–60 minutes per hour of audio manually trimming gaps — an efficiency bottleneck that becomes even more acute in live or quick-turnaround production.

Existing "Strip Silence" and automixer tools clip syllables and can't tell one speaker from another. Cloud denoisers like Adobe Enhance and Krisp focus on noise, not speaker-selective muting — and carry heavy CPU/GPU cost on live platforms.

Our Solution

NoNoise Audio produces AI audio plugins such as PureGate that streamline dialogue editing by over 95% — in both audio and video editing environments. Our tools run locally, preserving privacy and performance, and are designed to slot directly into professional workflows.

Tools in Development

What we're building.

◈

Intelligent Noise Reduction

Context-aware noise processing that separates unwanted background noise from dialogue with surgical precision — preserving the natural character of the voice rather than smoothing it away.

◈

Automated Breath & Click Removal

Detects and cleanly removes distracting breaths, mouth clicks and lip noise across entire takes — a task that currently consumes a significant portion of every dialogue editor's day.

◈

Room Tone Matching

Analyses the acoustic environment of each scene and intelligently fills gaps in dialogue — edits, pauses, ADR joins — with seamlessly matched room tone, eliminating the tell-tale silence.

◈

Dialogue Isolation

Separates voice from competing sound sources — on-set noise, overlapping ambience, production sound bleed — to give editors clean stems they can shape with confidence.

◈

DAW Integration

Designed to slot into existing professional workflows. NoNoise tools are being built as plugins and extensions for the industry-standard DAWs editors already work in.

◈

Batch Processing

Apply intelligent processing across entire sessions — not just individual clips. NoNoise handles scale without sacrificing the nuance that separates professional results from algorithmic ones.

First Product

PureGate

PureGate is a local plugin that runs inside or outside your DAW. Select a target voice and PureGate automates the removal of everything but that voice in an audio region or track — speaker-selective muting powered by local AI processing.

With independent control over Lookahead and Decay, editors can tune PureGate precisely to the character of a recording — from tight studio dialogue to messier location sound. No cloud processing. No syllable clipping. No bleed from other speakers.

In Development

Our Story

Built by someone who lived the problem

NoNoise started with a simple, daily frustration. As a professional audio producer working across advertising, broadcast and live performance, Ted Will Riley found himself spending hours every single day doing the same mechanical task: manually stripping unwanted audio from projects. Isolating one speaker. Silencing gaps between words. Cleaning up location sound clip by clip, region by region.

Not minutes. Hours. On every project. Work that demanded attention without demanding creativity — a slow drain on the time and energy that should have gone into the actual craft.

The tools available were built for a different era. Strip silence clipped syllables. Automixers couldn't tell one speaker from another. Cloud-based denoisers helped with noise, but not with the speaker-selective muting that real dialogue editing demands. Every editor working in film, TV, podcasting or radio knew the problem. Nobody had properly solved it.

So Ted set out to build the tool he'd always needed — and to build it right. NoNoise is built by engineers for engineers and content creators. Every decision — from how PureGate handles lookahead and decay, to the choice to run everything locally rather than in the cloud — comes from direct experience of what professional audio work actually looks like in practice. Not from a product brief. Not from a feature list. From thousands of hours in the session.

The goal has always been the same: give editors back their time, without taking away their control.

The pipeline

Ingest

Session or clip is loaded. NoNoise analyses the full audio context — noise floor, room characteristics, voice profile.

Detect

Problem areas are automatically flagged — noise, breaths, clicks, gaps — with confidence scores so editors can review and override.

Process

Intelligent processing is applied non-destructively. Editors see a before/after comparison at every stage before committing.
