I'm using IMovie to edit and shooting Sony VX1000. In a two tape video of a graduation ceremony, my first tape has a lot of static in the audio but clean video. Tape two is fine. I used a single wireless Samson for the speaker at the podium and didn't change anything from tape one to two except for the tape. I've gone to a special effect unit into noise reduction and was able to muffle the static but not remove it. Can Final Cut help any or do you guys have any suggestions.
