remove all noise reduction - how to?

[ajhuddle]

Hello folks!

I have used Mumble for a long, long time and because I am using it for a specific purpose I have solved almost all problems without asking this forum. One thing has beaten me. To keep the question simple: I have an actual radio at a remote location and I use Mumble to listen to this radio. This is shortwave radio so when there is no actual signal there is background noise and I need to be able to hear this background noise but Mumble seems to apply some kind of noise reduction and I do not want it to do that. I have tried every possible combination of parameters but it still will not leave my noise alone!! Any ideas anyone?

Best wishes

Yes, that's filters etc for clear voice.

You can't disable them.

(You'd have to change the sources and do a self-compile.)

Thanks for the suggestion. This sounds like it is beyond my abilities! Can anyone help me do this?

Let's dig this one up…

You can disable noise suppression, and set amplification to 1.0 in the input settings (so both sliders all the way to the left); for good measure, disable echo cancellation as well. That should disable most of the input processing, and all that's left is loss from encoding.
