Clean the sound first, then edit

Cleaning first gives the edit a clean voice track, and because Noise Reducer keeps the picture untouched you start from the original quality.

  1. Open the raw video in Noise Reducer and save the cleaned version to Photos.
  2. Import the cleaned video into CapCut.
  3. Edit, add music and captions as usual.
