QUICK START-
Insert the DeBreath processor into your vocal track.
There are two parts to the process of removing breaths: detection and reduction.
First DeBreath will find the breaths, based on two settings. Once you are happy
with DeBreath?s detection choices, you will decide what to do with the Cbreaths.C
DeBreath?s default settings are designed to provide good results under many
conditions and are generally a good place to start your breath detection. Listen
to the Voice path. Listen to the breath path. This will reveal to you the quality of
the detection and the correctness of the detection settings. Then you can begin
making adjustments.
There are two threshold settings used to fine-tune DeBreath?s detection:
" CBreath ThresholdC - To more accurately detect breaths, DeBreath stores a
database of breath templates, or definitions, of what comprise breaths. The
Breath graph displays the similarity between the incoming audio signal
and the breath database template. The scale is from 1->100 and the higher
the value the greater the likelihood that the event is a breath. If you set
the Breath threshold very high, only the most certain of matches will be
reported as breaths.
" Energy Threshold - Here we assess an audio event based on its energy. If
the energy of the event lies below the threshold, it is more likely to be a
breath.
When the Energy is below the Energy threshold UandU the Breath is above the
Breath threshold, the plug-in classifies the event as a breath and reduction is
applied.
Fine-tune the detection threshold parameters until you are satisfied. Now you
can adjust the Reduction slider to determine how much gain reduction should be
applied to a detected breath.
