Getting rid of static on recordings

Well, I don't know about that, but RadioTime allows you to record broadcasts of a radio station. :-\

Yes, many audio editing programs have features that reduce, minimize various kinds of noise. Even the lower cost editing programs and some free editing programs claim to have features designed to take out the noise that is peculiar to the noise from old records and LPs.

I would expect radio static to be very hard to remove. You can never filter out the bad stuff, the noise, the clicks and pops without also taking out some of the good sound. The end product can end up sounding hollow, distorted and/or tinny.

I use Adobe Audition. I routinely "de-noise" live recordings of events. If I try to automate it, I get those hollow, distorted and tinny sounds. If I manually remove the noise, click by click, cough by cough, it can easily take six to eight minutes to clean of one minute of recording.

Audacity is a very popular recording editor. It claims to have some noise removal abilities but I have not used them. Maybe someone else can comment on how well it works. Audacity is FREE.
