GWC is a software for audio restoration of wave files, eliminating unwanted noises such as hissing and clicking sounds.
For those with a preference for using Linux, GWC is a great software alternative for audio restoration. The application allows users to avoid having to boot to MS Windows. GWC utilizes some very cool software, such as COOLEDIT 2000 and Declick by M. Paar, to do audio restoration. The project was launched out of selfishness and as a way to learn the GNOME API for GUI programming.
Although the code requires cleaning up in some areas, it overall delivers. The goal of GWC is simple: to denoise, dehiss, and amplify audio files. Using libsndfile, audio restoration can now be done on various audio formats, including wav, au, and aiff.
For those who are interested, a presentation detailing the technical aspects of the audio restoration methods utilized in GWC is available. To utilize the application, simply untar the source tarball (tar -xvzf) and enter the directory created. Then, run "./configure," "make," and "make install." "GWC" is the program file that you can run.
In terms of the latest updates, bug fixes have been implemented, including fixing the broken save changes function on exit.
