Working with a breathing sound

Beginners
1

Hello !
I’m trying to reproduce a video I made using photoshop (https://youtu.be/IlI6yBYad9E?si=N0JXeRkFH0_Hk4EH&t=114) by making a treshold TOP react to a breathing sound.

I wondered how I could translate my audio into something like inhaling = 0 to 1 and exhaling = 1 to 0 ? I’ve tried using a count and a logic CHOP but the result isn’t satisfying. Is there any other way to go about it?

Thanks!

Hi @p4lmyre,

instead of a Spectrum CHOP, have you tried the Audio Filter CHOP with a Low Pass (for breathing out) and a High Pass (for breathing in) filter? If you use 2 of them and use a Analyze CHOP on RMS Power you might get a clearer signal to use with a Count or Speed CHOP.

Speed CHOP I’m thinking because it would reflect the non linear breathing.

The 0 to 1 and back is a bit difficult though, especially if you don’t know how long somebody will breath in or breath out…

Cheers
