What does HackerNews think of noise-suppression-for-voice?
Noise suppression plugin based on Xiph's RNNoise
RTX Voice seems to work a bit better, but noisetorch compares really well to it. I have a microphone which has static noise and is not really mechanical decoupled from my table. Both applications are good at cancelling that kind of noise.
Noisetorch is a bit more focused on suppressing noise while you're not talking, which is the use case of the posted article. RTX Voice is better at suppressing noise while talking, which you can hear in Nvidias demos as well.

A lot of people - despite being forced to work from home - simply don't seem to care about the way their audio sounds. Many don't even try to tackle these problems after it's been pointed out to them that they're being a nuisance in online meetings.
I gave up on trying to help people fix their setups, or convincing them that it matters, and switched to doing this on the receiver end. It's been a massive quality-of-life improvement.
If you're interested in the setup, you basically just need a small script that loads the pulseaudio plugin and wires up the sources/sinks correctly.
My setup script is here: https://cs.tvl.fyi/depot@canon/-/blob/tools/nsfv-setup/defau...

I'm often pissed some obscure piece of software doesn't seem to exist, contemplate writing it myself, decide to append github to the search query and find someone who already wrote it.
Litterally a day ago that's how I found https://github.com/werman/noise-suppression-for-voice
