I do not claim to be knowledgeable regarding noise reduction. However, most of the time I have dealt with old recordings which have been subjected to noise reduction software, there are almost no highs whatsoever. I am thinking of a lot of big band and vocal recordings made on 78s during the 30s and 40s, and yes I know that the modulating frequencies were seldom more than 5000 cycles. But I have heard a number of those recordings on the original vinyl and later heard those same recordings after going through noise reduction procedures, and the resulting sound is so bland that I would much prefer the originals, complete with hiss and a few pops.

As stated earlier, I haven't played with this stuff much, so I am not bashing. I am just suggesting that good sound is an extremely subjective thing.

"auto noise capture" in sound forge is great, and
then the trick is to get it to lower the defaults
to more than one of the saved configurations to more than 12.5 DB.
You can totally get rid of "cassette" noise, for
example, at about -40 DB or so, any more than
that and it starts to make the typical NR swishy
sounds which are not desirable.

In case this matters, I also really liked Audition's Noise Reduction.
However, I feel as though the Sound Forge Noise reduction
is just as good but one needs to play with it some.  For example, the
Sound Forge noise reduction plug-in as four different modes,
and certain modes work better with certain kinds of content.  I didn't
feel I had to work as hard at Audition's noise reduction to
get good results, but if you are forced away from Audition, I think
you can do all right with the Sound Forge noise reduction
plug-in if you experiment with settings..
