Add Automatic Musician Breath Effects to Muse Sounds #21801

Your idea

I've been having so many discussions with some of my friends who also have experiences in composing/arranging, and that discussion was of course about Breath Effects coming from commercial libraries that mostly support them within the notes outside the instrument ranges, so I was actually thinking that there should be an extra feature in Muse Sounds where we can hear automatic breath effects coming from almost all the instruments. I'd say they should occur within a measure or 2 beats before the start of the note playback. I think the Percussion, Keys, Acoustic Guitars and Harp should actually have Musician Movements while multiple notes are still playing, while the Winds, Brass, and Strings do their usual breathing almost at the start of every note possible.

Problem to be solved

Instead of having Muse Sounds just playing back the articulations as is, there should be some places where there are automatic breathing and movements from almost all the instruments.

Posting the same exact issue/request/whatever on 2 different places is not helpful or good, please refrain from doing so, otherwise there will be a lot of duplicates everywhere.


Anyway, just as I replied on your Zendesk request, this is a terrible Idea for the reasons I already wrote there, I cite myself: "As a wind player, this is a... terrible idea.

Part of our daily work is trying to hide loud breathing/key sounds when playing (which also makes me hate the "imposed" loud key noises on some of the woodwinds), just like strings try to make bow changes, position changes and string crossings smooth.

If this is ever a thing (which wouldn't make sense) it would be good to make it optional at least..."
