Vuvuzela Filter Windows

Posted by Martin Meixger

As Tube from the Surfpoeten showed us, we can supress the Vuvuzela sound by filtering the frequencies at 233, 466, 932 and 1864 hertz.

He used Logic Express on his Mac.

For Windows i use Reaper with this settings: reaper-anti-vuvuzela.zip (3.31 kb)

[Update 2:] more agressive but hollow sounding settings: reaper-anti-vuvuzela.zip (3.31 kb)

bye-bye annoing vuvuzela sound :-)

    Horatiorama Lovely. There is still a distant mumbling sound, but I don't have the feeling of bumblebees swarming round my head. Thank you!

    Moogra Gami Google for "lifetime bad kreuznach bye bye vuvuzela" and you will find an easy and cheap solution for streaming. I created a pure data patch including instructions to get streaming signals filtered. Cheers

    pete hi all, two questions: 1: If input = microphone or line in (but same soundcard as output) and output = soundcard. Will it work ? 2: Is there a way to trick the system in case input shall be PC sound and output shall also be PC sound ? F.e. with Virtual Audio Cable ? Thanks so much & keep up the good work.

    Mige Is there anything else I have to do besides load the vuvuzela filter as project? Atleast for me there is still quite a bit of vuvuzela noise even with this filter.

    Mige I'm a bit confused how to exactly use this filter. I the sound hooked from my tv through my computer to my amp and I started the reaper program and loaded the vuvuzela-filter but I can't really hear much difference with the filter or without. Is there some button I have to push to activate the filter or am I doing something horrible wrong.

    MT Will this work with a TV tuner on a PC? If so, how would the setting be set up? Thanks.

    wanderer it's fairly simple - you just need to configure your media player's output device to be a pipe, which you need to configure as reaper's input device. a pipe can be a sound server, or something built in windows, i'm not sure what exactly, but with some research i think you can make it work

    Ozkan If you are watching the games from ESPN3 or some other website using your web browser, this is how you can filter out the annoying vuvuzela sound. First, close everything that use your sound drivers. Install Virtual Audio Cable (http://software.muzychenko.net/eng/vac.html) (Thanks to Martin Meixger for the link). Open your Sounds and Audio Devices Properties (left click to volume icon or from Control Panel in Windows XP). Go to Audio tab and select Virtual Cable 1 as your default Sound playback device. If there isn’t a Virtual Cable 1 option, it means that you weren’t able to install Virtual Audio Cable correctly. Open your broadcast, ESPN3 or any vuvuzela video/sound you have. Don’t panic when you cannot hear anything. You are not supposed to hear anything yet. Now, install Reaper. Open the more aggressive but hollow sounding settings posted at this webpage (http://martin.bz/file.axd?file=2010%2f6%2freaper-anti-vuvuzela-v2.RPP) (Thanks to Martin Meixger again). If you wathched Martin’s tutorial video, you know how to open Reaper Preferences. You need to change your audio system to WDM Kernel Streaming, and your Input Devide to Virtual Audio Cable. Your Output device should be your sound card (or sound card driver, or whatever you used to have as your default Sound Playback Device. When you activate the Reaper filter (again check the reaper tutorial video that Martin posted), you should be able to filter the Vuvuzela sounds. Good luck! PS: I have a Dell laptop, I use Windows XP as operating system, and Chrome as web browser.
