Any ideas PD people?

Thanks @seed but this is the spectral gating I mention. Doesn't seem to advance the idea of gating the percussive phonemes of the speech? or is there something I'm missing?

Does anybody know of a function or patch out there for gating speech so that the vowels would be silenced ? By attempting to keep as much of the percussive elements of the speech in as possible. (or vice-versa would be cool too)

I've tried spectral gating and bands etc, but I wondered if there'd be something more contrast like to isolate percussive parts of speech

Any help would be massively welcome, or if anyone has the interest in a new patch I'd happily talk about putting a small thankyou payment their way
