+1 on a simple noise gate, that's all it needs.

Would love to see this feature added via the current equalizer settings. I don't have a fancy mic so this would be immensely helpful. Veed.io has a tool called "clean audio" that is fantastic. Descript should definitely look into adding this feature.

This might be useful in a basic capacity, but as someone who uses this in conjunction with Audition & Izotope RX, it's not useful. Anyone who's already involved with audio will not need this; DIY'ers may find it useful, provided they don't destroy their audio with it.
Richard Kershaw
Richard Pennington: I'd agree with you normally, but Descript's Audition export isn't great in terms of maintaining edits right now, so Descript tends to be the final stage of my edit.

Add support for AU plug-ins and anyone can use any noise reduction plugin they want. Personally, i find iZotope so much better than any other option I’ve tried, I don’t know that I would use something proprietary.
Side benefit, people who want noise gate, better EQ / compression, etc - would have it available.

Would rather have direct support for Auphonic https://auphonic.com/engine/

I've been using this to pretty good results: https://github.com/werman/noise-suppression-for-voice .
I don't have an Nvidia card in my Intel NUC so I can't use RTX Voice. This is the next best thing, works on Windows, and it's even all open source software.

Yes a simple noise gate would be sufficient.
Emily Isaac
Why would Descript focus solely on noise reduction without expanding audio/sound editing capabilities as a whole? Especially if it’s complicated. Or just figure out the best outside integration and contract it because it’s really what’s missing

Agree I would like the function to turn all breathing in sounds into silence automatically when editing a podcast.
Max Graham
Louise: Not possible. There's no specific cut off with some words being quite breath-y. If high end software can't solve this (it can't) then there's no way descript can. You'll end up cutting off certain words and create more work in the long run.

Louise: This would sound terrible on a podcast. Reduction might be useful, but even Izotope RX hasn't been able to nail this one yet.

Max Graham: Guys those of us who spend real money on audio gear have had this in hardware for years! Quit saying something isn't possible just because you don't own equipment to do it. It is possible and used in pro audio for decades.
Max Graham
Sir Gene: Sorry but with all the hardware and software I've owned over the decades in my music career (google me) It's simply not possible to distinguish automatically between a breathy vocal tail and a breath. It should be done manually by a post producer never trusted to an automatic system. That's lazy af.

Max Graham: Only reply to this for Voiceover/podcast work... Music is a different beast and you probably do need human production. But for voice work, starting with a good gate and continuing with filters, hardware has been used in live radio and live video production for many years which works just as well for recorded audio for voice work.
