Breath Control

Overview

The Breath Control module intelligently detects breaths in dialogue or vocal recordings and 

suppresses them. Removing and reducing breaths in recordings can be a time-consuming 

process for dialogue editors and music producers alike. Breath Control can help reduce the 

time spent on repetitive editing without sacrificing the quality of your dialogue or vocal 

recordings.

The Breath Control module analyzes your file and distinguishes breaths from dialogue or 

sung vocals based on their harmonic structure. If any piece of the incoming audio matches a 

harmonic profile similar to a breath, the module will suppress that portion of the audio until 

sung vocals are detected. Different from a ‘Threshold’ based process in which the module is 

only engaged once the audio has risen to a certain volume, Breath Control will perform its 

analysis regardless of level. This allows for accurate breath recognition for a multitude of 

quiet or loud vocal styles with minimal adjustment of the module’s controls.
