my-pop-os-conf VS noise-suppression-for-voice

I keep a repo of apps, configuration, and changes I make to my system here: https://github.com/canadaduane/my-pop-os-conf

Here is mine: https://github.com/canadaduane/my-pop-os-conf

Script: https://github.com/canadaduane/my-pop-os-conf/blob/main/microphone/setup-pipewire-noise-filter-mic.sh

Yes, I think it pipes the default input (source) to the default output. I have a noise cancelling source and if I switch to it the loopback follows it and I hear the de-noised one

Frankly, what I hear is very similar to the results of classic spectral denoising, even with the characteristic artifacts (for Linux, there's Noise Repellent [1] available for advanced spectral denoising; there's also a ton of commercial spectral processors).

The demonstration could use more random background noises to separate it from spectral processors, and more varied vocabulary to separate it from RNNVoice [2] which tends to suppress breath and parts of sibilants, making the sound unnatural. The latency is also important - is it as low as in RNNVoice? What about the CPU load?

Nice, hopefully you or somebody else will turn this into an easy to use PipeWire plugin, so I can replace noise-suppression-for-voice.

I use this plugin to remove the sound of my air conditioner, which can be quite loud: https://github.com/werman/noise-suppression-for-voice

This comes very close to RTX Voice while being multiple times more efficient. Not as good as RTX Voice but I prefer much lower HW usage.

bonus points if you use equalizerAPO + a VST plugin for noise suppression if you really need to suppress noise.

I like the RNNoise plugin so much I ended up using it in my audio tracks too when doing vocals.
