The Beatles: Get Back Used High-Tech Machine Learning To Restore The Audio – /Film

"TheBeatles: Get Back" is eight hours of carefully curated audio and footage from The Beatles in the studio and performing a rooftop concert in London in 1969. Jackson had to dig through 60 hours of vintage film footage and around 150 hours of audio recordings in order to put together his three-part documentary. Once he decided which footage and audio to include, then he had to take the next difficult step: cleaning up and restoring them both to give fans a look at TheBeatles like they had never seen them before.

In order to clean up the audio for "Get Back," Jackson employed algorithm technology to teach computers what different instruments and voices sounded like so they could isolate each track:

Once each track was isolated, sound mixers could then adjust volume levels individually to help with sound quality and clarity. The isolated tracks also make it much easier to remove noise from the audio tracks, like background sounds or the electronic hum of older recording equipment. This ability to fine-tune every aspect of the audio allowedJackson to make it sound like theFab Four are hanging out in your living room. When that technology is used for their musical performances, it's all the more impressive, as their rooftop concert feels as close to the real thing as you can possibly get.
