When I listened to the noise I did not come to that conclusion. Sounded to
me like a primary with a harminic or 2.

Yes.. but the algo that was used in Cool Edit many times would induce more
artifacts than it removed. I used to use this type of noise removal often in
the early 90s and was weaned away from it slowly because of the phase
effects it produced. I do recommed he try it but I no longer think of it as
the silver bullet. I did find though that it worked best with small samples
of the noise rather than large ones.
Sometimes it strikes me that these tools we use.. well.. low budget
productions take SOOOO much more work that those that have the best crews.
Some features and shows take zero stroking. And others are so hard that it
is almost impossible to push them to an acceptable quality.
