Do these free software above help to remove the buzzing "zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz" sounds from my cassette tape recordings?

I thought Audacity would do that... I've barely used it though.

You're looking for NR (noise reduction). Can't think of any freeware that has effective NR ... But search: noise reduction, VST plugin, freeware. Search here as well: http://www.kvraudio.com/

NR is often a trade off - you can reduce noise but the over-all sound can become lifeless and well .. . pretty crappy. This is why hi-end professional NR products are so expensive ($ 1000 +). The results can be almost transparent but you pay a premium.

For cheaper NR products it's best to use them in small amounts, just to take the edge of any annoying noises / buzzes / clicks. There are other editing tricks with EQ etc - but you'll find that out later.

You could try Acon - it has some in-built tools for what you want to do. [ shareware ]

If you like the program, then check out their forum for more tips.

Mark0:
ExactAudioCopy include a simple editor that can do noise reduction.

Bye!

f0dder:
Once you do noise reduction, it's not exact any more though :P
