DEBIRD automatically recognizes bird noises in your recordings and removes them with surgical precision.
AUTOMATED BIRD NOISE REMOVAL
The Problem
Meet the involuntary #1 enemy of recordists and editors alike: Birds.
While their lively and delightful song is a true asset in nature ambiences, it ruins just about everything else.
As a result, countless hours are spent on the rather tedious task of cleaning recordings before one can get back to the fun part and focus on the creative process.

THE SOLUTION
How to use DEBIRD?
1
Drag any sound into DEBIRD. It is analyzed automatically.
2
Hit Play. Enjoy your de-birded recording!
You can see the removed bird sounds in the lower spectrum display.
3
Simply export the cleaned sound.
That’s It?
Yes! It is really that simple. You need some more features? You can also do the following:

Would you like to keep certain sounds that would otherwise be removed?
No problem! Grab a boundary box or brush and show DEBIRD what to keep.

Solo and export the extracted bird sounds if needed.
DEBIRD can be used in the exact opposite way it was designed for.

Help us to improve DEBIRD
DEBIRD works with a neural network that further improves the more input it gets. We will continuously feed the deep learning algorithm with recordings of birds to improve the results and to better handle edge-cases.
What you can do
You have a file and DEBIRD struggles to properly remove the bird sounds? Contact us and send us your audio file. We will include it into the machine learning routine and DEBIRD will handle such cases better over time.
