With Aspire, you can match a vocal quality to a performance style by decreasing or increasing​ a voice’s natural​ breathiness​. Aspire analyzes a vocal in real time and separates the aspiration noise (breathiness) from the harmonic content. It then allows you to adjust the amount of aspiration noise, and affect its character independently by applying a parametric​ EQ​ to the noise component. It also includes a real-time display that lets you visualize the effect of the aspiration noise processing. Whether reducing vocal rasp or adding a bit of smokiness, Aspire allows modification of the amount and quality of a voice’s breathiness—without affecting the vocal’s harmonic characteristics. Contents 3 Quick Start Follow these steps to get started with Aspire Choose Whether to Increase, Reduce, or EQ the Aspiration Noise The​ ​Increase/Reduce​ switch lets you choose between two different modes of operation. Choose Increase to boost all of the aspiration noise, and/or to use the​ ​EQ controls​ to selectively boost or cut a specific frequency band of the aspiration noise in the audio signal.

It begins by neutralizing the effect of the original singer’s vocal tract and then lets you specify the characteristics of the modeled vocal tract, giving you individual control over each of the elements that go into creating a distinct vocal character. The ​Model Throat​ ​Controls​ let you stretch, shorten, widen or constrict the overall dimensions of the modeled vocal tract. For more detailed control, the ​Graphic Throat Shaping Display​ lets you individually adjust the position and width of five points in the vocal tract model, from the vocal cords, through the throat, mouth, and lips.
