Hello all, been a while and am jamming on a render for a product but have not used Octane for a while. I just got the 2.06 edition. I used to be up on fine tuning the settings but need some help and tried searching the posts. Could use a quick comment from someone familiar as it would save me a ton of time.

Attached are my project render and settings, I tried the PMC and PT but am using DL again for this render. I cant get rid of the noise around the lighted areas. Any help would be appreciated.

Excellent suggestion, if I knew what slider to move :) I am not totally lost but it has been over a year since I last used Octane, trying to remember...
