Adobe Podcast settings guide

Adobe Podcast's Speech Enhancement removes background noise and reverb from any audio recording with one click — transforms a home recording into studio quality in under 60 seconds.

Enhance Speech is available free with an Adobe account, with limits; check the current terms.

Upload MP3, WAV, MP4, or MOV files — it extracts and enhances the audio from video files too, useful for cleaning up Zoom recordings and screen captures.

Speech Enhancement works on voice only — it specifically improves speech intelligibility without altering music or other non-voice audio in the recording.

Use it for: podcast cleanup, YouTube video voice enhancement, Zoom recording polish, client presentation narration, and e-learning course audio.

For Indian home offices: Adobe Podcast removes construction noise, ceiling fan hum, and room echo — the three biggest audio quality problems in Indian recording environments.

The Mic Check feature tests your microphone setup before recording — provides real-time feedback on mic distance, background noise levels, and echo to optimise before you start.
