There seem to be quite an abundance of these sites on the internet that you can use to remove excessive scratchy sounds from recordings.....Have any members used them and if so can they endorse/recommend particular products.

Haven't done any Audio Restoration for a good few years now but when I did, I used Sound Forge from Sonic Foundry which is now owned by Sony. With the advent of AI I'm sure things have moved on quite a bit from those days. I've now moved on to manipulating audio files to create my own DTS 5.1 surround discs for a bit of fun. Good luck on your hunt :thumbsup:

I've never thought to look for online click removal, but it makes sense to use them for any vinyl rip that you want others to hear, including YT uploads. I think Audacity has a plug-in for this, but I use an ancient version of Cool Edit Pro, having saved the settings I find work best for 45s.
Interesting to see that synthesised vinyl clicks are now trendy on new music which will probably never see a release in a physical format!

CEDAR is the company that has a specific function for decrackle, separate from declick. Many audio editors license it, and it's all from Cedar. They may combine decrackle and declick into one.
Not Audacity or Goldwave, but TotalRecorder does. For constant crackle I like to use it during record from vinyl to computer. Then use Goldwave to do better declicking.
I haven't tried online.

If you are doing sound restoration you need the recordings as WAV files, rather than mp3.
