Nature of Force
Hey,

I was recently listening to a Steve Vai song called "The Aching Hunger" ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jJY0u5-Xl3E )

The beginning sounds like it's Microsoft Sam's voice, with someone inhaling behind it to make it sound like a whisper. Is there any technique/software to remove the tone from audio and just keep the word sounds?

Thanks
 
I was looking to do something similar and tried all sorts of techniques using wavelab however none of them really worked. Extracting audio which covers a specific frequency range such as a metronome click is easy enough however, when the audio spans across multiple frequencies it starts to et difficult to produce anything usable.

Electric Eddy.
 
Haha. The CSI crack made me laugh. Thanks for the replies.
 
Cameleon 5000 additive synth/resynthesizer. It's a really powerful instrument. It allows you to load a sample into it, which it then analyzes and resynthesizes using additive methods. It has an interesting feature where it also analyzes and extracts the "noise" that exists in a sample. So, you can set it so that you turn down the partials (the sine oscillators) thus leaving only the noise source in the audio.

It's a unique and interesting feature that I've used to turn drums into something completely different. It will probably work well with voice as well. Might not exactly sound like wispering, but you will definitely be able to make out the words.
