Prompt template
A reliable prompt format is: target source + context + exclusion hint.
Example: 'Main speaker voice near camera, reduce keyboard clicks in background'.
Speech-focused prompts
Use these patterns for podcast and interview work.
- 'Host voice center, suppress AC hum'
- 'Guest voice right channel, reduce cafe ambience'
- 'Narration voice with minimal room echo'
Music-focused prompts
Use these patterns for rehearsal and live recording review.
- 'Lead vocal only from live performance'
- 'Kick and snare from drum mix'
- 'Acoustic guitar strumming foreground'
Ambience and effects prompts
Targeting ambience can help film editors and social teams rebuild scene sound quickly.
- 'Rain ambience without dialogue'
- 'Street traffic and passing cars'
- 'Crowd cheer in stadium background'
Prompt iteration rules
If output quality is weak, iterate with tighter subject definitions rather than longer generic prompts.
- Change one variable at a time.
- Use short, explicit nouns and contexts.
- Avoid stacking too many exclusion requests in one pass.
