AMD has released the Adrenalin Edition 22.7.1 software for Radeon graphics card owners. The new driver comes with the chipmaker's much-anticipated AMD Noise Suppression technology and OpenGL optimizations.

AMD Noise Suppression is a new feature that reduces background noise from your environment when you're on a call with someone or gaming in your favorite multiplayer title. The technology works on AMD-based system's input and output devices. The only requirement is that you must have a system with a Ryzen 5000 (Vermeer) processor or newer.

    That's excellent, I hope it's better than nvidia's noise reduction, that one is very aggressive and sometimes outright quiets certain accents.

    I had been using it for a while until I heard how others caught the audio in a recording and decided not to, and instead use the meeting software.

    When Nvidia Broadcast works, it's great... but I have been having issues where I get a lot of audio distortion and dropouts. I'm not sure what the deal is. I might have to see if AMD's noise removal does better, and I applaud the fact that it can be used without requiring Tensor cores. Too bad it's not open source!

    Maybe you should go ask AMD to make it "Open Source"
