Body: <p>While making videos at home, there is a considerable amount of ambient noise throughout the day (e.g. airplanes, cars honking, dogs barking, etc).

  <li><strong>Sound</strong>: a Professional Scarlett Studio MIC, connected to a Focusrite Scarlett 2i2, which is then connected to a MacBook Pro.  The MacBook is running Ableton Live 11.</li>
  <li><strong>Video</strong>: A Sony ZV-1F.</li>
  </ul>
  <p>Honestly, I have yet to make my first video...but audio tests show that absolutely every ambient sound is mingled with my voice.</p>
  <p>I am not looking for a solution of &quot;go to a recording studio&quot;.  Also, I am not talking about playback of a recording (I am not looking for a noise-cancellation headset).  I am looking for software, presumably compatible with the above, which filters out the noise while the recording of my voice is in progress.  Any suggestions?</p>

  As you're working in mono, this becomes easy, using that dreaded misnomer… **AI**
  
  Just record your soundtrack as normal, then throw the resulting file at [Adobe Enhance](https://podcast.adobe.com/enhance) (free but requires sign-up). It only takes wav or mp3. It *will* take stereo but gives you mono back.  
  Tadahh. Clean audio track.
  
  Honestly, it's nearly put me out of a job :\
  
  There's also a [Mic Check](https://podcast.adobe.com/miccheck) tool, which I haven't yet tried.
