hey, I've figured out everything except the last step.
where do you adjust the noise reduction amount?
The only place I can see to do that is the wet slider in the shift p 
dialogue.
Kenny did the vid on reaper site, but of course, you can't see which 
slider he's adjusting.
I figured out how to get a noise print, and to do all the rest.
So any one who's done this how bout the reduction slider?
