I do audiobook narration and its generally good practice to silence/reduce breaths and then shorten the gaps by at least 30%. My current process for audiobook processing is to create a duplicate of my vocal track and the apply a noise gate to one of them set at the average RMS amplitude to cut out all the breathing. I think use the duplicate track to replace any of random words that may have been butchered by the noise gate, and then I have a clean room noise track that runs under it.
However, after I do that, I still have to shorten all of the gaps made by my breathing. For longer audiobooks this is a total pain the ass. Since the gaps are complete silence, is there any plugin or anything that could help automate this process for me? I know its probably a long shot, but anything to shave time off audiobook editing would help.
Also let me know if you have a better way of eliminate breaths from recordings, so far this is the best method I've found besides doing it manually which takes hours upon hours. I didn't have any luck with the Waves debreath plugin.
Thanks!
