Default recording problem and solution?

I have a recording that I am trying to restore that has broadband
noise from about 20-200 Hz.


Only one decade.

All of the frequency components of the
mix are well above his level (starting at 600 Hz),


Improbable, unless it is a recording of fire ants or cikades.

but no matter what
I try to do to eliminate the noise, the mix ends up fairly thin and
tinny.


If I try to play a violin I expect the result to be somewhat less than a
good approximiation to the I Musici sound.

I've tried everything from noise reduction samples of just
the noise applied and filtered to just cutting out the noise with the
EQ, but it seems the remainder of the recording is tainted as I said.
Upon listening to the inverse of the mix (just the noise), I don't
hear nor even see any of the desired notes so I don't know why I'm
ending up with something so flat. Is there any way I can get around
it and get the original sound of the recording back (minus the low
freq background noise of course)


Skill and trainin in using whatever noise reduction you use helps. Yes, the
advertizements say that you just need to swing your creditcard, then you can
remove noise, or mix or whatever.

There ain't no way nobody can give you a response with no noise example, if
you want someone with the time and inclination to so do to offer a
suggestion a link to an actual example of the problem audio is required.

thanks.


Kind regards
