«heavy breathing» by 56228375

on 11 Jun'17 00:04 in synthesisbreathingbody soundbreath

An attempt at emulating a breathing sound. Originally made using sonic-visualizer, based on the spectrogram of the first breath in this recording: http://freesound.org/people/gogo199432/sounds/198025/, and then edited to make it sound longer. Note: needs supercollider 3.9dev.

Nice! The slight resonance makes it sound like someone breathing through a mask to me.

True, if you replace rq:0.1 with rq:0.5 in the breathe_out synth, perhaps it sounds a bit more like breathing out.

I'll have to use this in my anonymous calls to women
