Blobs in audio when speaking too close to the microphone

I made some recordings with the microphone on my headset but because it was too close to my mouth the final audio output has noises every here and then, especially when I pronounced 'P's and 'T's. Is there any way I can get rid of this using Adobe Premier Pro CC?

    hmmm. I don't know what your audio file is. If you already have you mp4 in PPro, then I would say YES, cause you can just right click the audio file ( A1 or whatever ) and choose 'edit in audition' ..

    I don't use your version of stuff so someone else will have to answer once you tell them what you have ( version, etc. )

    Basically, you should avoid getting the bad noises when you record, but sometimes everyone gets stuck trying to fix what they HAVE, rather than what they WISH they had... so that's where you are now.

    That is not something you can fix after the fact.  You need to take more care during recording.

    from the internet =======

    Popping
    When singing, rapping or saying lyrics which have “P” sounds or “B” sounds, blasts of pressured air are expelled from your mouth into the microphone causing an unwanted sound called a pop. If you say the word “pop” into your palm you will even be able to feel it.
    To prevent it, you can invest in a pop filter, or there’s a loads of advice online to make your own. Our favourite is most certainly the ladies tights/coat hanger combo!

    Sibilance
    just like popping, sibilance is caused by certain alphabet sounds – this time it’s the letters “S” and “F”, both of which can cause an irritating high-frequency hiss. While you could consider using an EQ to take some of these unwanted high frequencies, we always recommend putting more time into getting the recording right first time. This will limit your editing time and get you used to recording at a higher quality.
    There are also a number of tips online you can try including using an elastic band and a pencil. Singing “off-axis”, or not directly into the microphone, is the simplest way to avoid these unwanted sounds, so that air shots don’t hit the microphone directly.

    ================

    Try a search for 'getting rid of popping noise in soundtrack ' and see if you find anything useful..

    good luck !

    Thank you but does Adobe Audition allows you to edit audio contained in an mp4 video as well?

    Yes.

    I would try some of the filters in Premiere Pro first in case you get lucky.


    Switch to audio time units. edit the audio only and cut hard at the front and end of the pop. add bass cut and level reduction to that edit. A short crossfade in and out helps. Adjust bass and level until it sounds better
