Introduction
FxSound is an AI-driven audio enhancement tool that optimizes sound quality for different content, such as lectures, podcasts, and multimedia resources. It uses targeted equalizer to clarify speech, reduce background noise, and customize audio profiles. It can be used to improve sound quality of lecture recordings and interview recordings for transcription.
Key Features
- Speech Clarity Enhancement: Amplifies vocal frequencies in recordings.
- Noise Reduction: Removes ambient sounds (e.g., keyboard typing, HVAC hum).
- Customizable Equalizer: Adjusts bass, treble, and balance for optimal playback.
- Preset Audio Modes: Offers preconfigured settings (e.g., 'Streaming Video Mode,' 'Voice Mode').

Learners' Perspectives
Hybrid Lecture Optimization
A professor records lectures in a noisy campus lab. FxSound's noise reduction removes equipment hum, while 'Voice Mode' amplifies his voice. The enhanced audio is uploaded to the LMS. Remote students could hear explanations of complex concepts clearly.
Accessible Podcast Creation
A history department produces a podcast series using archival interviews. FxSound remasters low-quality tapes by boosting vocals and reducing tape hiss. The cleaned audio is shared to students as study materials.
Live Webinar Enhancement
During a virtual guest lecture, FxSound's real-time processing minimizes echo from the speaker's home environment. Attendees with hearing aids use the customizable equalizer to adjust frequencies. The sound is clear and sudden increase in the volume is prevented.
Study Session Clarity
A student reviews a poorly recorded biochemistry lecture. FxSound's speech enhancement clarifies mumbled explanations of metabolic pathways, while the equalizer balances volume spikes. The optimized audio is saved to his tablet for offline revision during commutes.
Group Project Collaboration
Engineering students collaborate on a design presentation via Zoom. FxSound's background noise suppression eliminates dormitory distractions, ensuring clear communication. They record the session and use the 'Podcast Mode' to create a polished audio summary for peer review.
Language Learning Support
An international student practices listening comprehension with French philosophy podcasts. FxSound's vocal boost emphasizes nuanced pronunciations, while the bass reduction minimizes music interludes. Exported files are imported into flashcard apps for vocabulary drills.
