Harmonic Fronter Audio - Mouth Clicks, Smacks, and Pop Articulations (Preview Pack, v0.9)

Harmonic Frontier Audio – Mouth Clicks, Smacks and Pop Articulations (Preview, v0.9) A high-fidelity human vocal dataset designed for AI training, speech research, and expressive voice modeling. Mouth Clicks, Smacks and Pop Articulations (Preview), created by Harmonic Frontier Audio, provides a compact reference set demonstrating the quality, formatting, and metadata conventions used in the Harmonic Frontier Audio Human Vocality Primitives series. 🔎 Summary This dataset provides high-quality, rights-cleared recordings of close-miked percussive oral gestures, including clicks, smacks, and pop-like articulations — short-duration, high-transient acoustic events produced through rapid oral closure, release, and suction mechanisms. The recordings emphasize: diverse transient attack shapes micro-duration impulse characteristics oral cavity pressure and suction events fine-grained percussive articulation control These characteristics make the dataset valuable for AI speech and vocal onset modeling, percussive transient synthesis, phonetic research, and human-aligned control of short-duration articulatory events. Developed by Harmonic Frontier Audio, this preview follows The Proteus Standard™ for dataset provenance, transparency, and ethical AI use.Learn more about the Proteus Standard → https://harmonicfrontieraudio.com/proteus-standard Full dataset details and licensing information are available at:https://harmonicfrontieraudio.com/datasets/mouth-clicks-smacks-pop-articulations If you find this dataset useful, please consider giving it a 🤍 on Hugging Face to help others discover it. 👄 About Mouth Clicks, Smacks and Pop Articulations Mouth clicks and smacks are produced through rapid oral cavity closure and release, often involving suction-based pressure differentials and quick lip or tongue separation events.Pop articulations include short, percussive impulse-like sounds created through controlled labial or lingual release gestures. These phenomena are foundational to: consonant onset and transient modeling percussive vocal sound design articulatory impulse synthesis embodied and multimodal agent sound generation detailed phonetic study of non-voiced oral gestures This dataset presents a neutral, non-linguistic, non-performative representation of percussive oral articulations.It is not designed to encode semantic speech content, but rather to isolate transient acoustic primitives driven by rapid oral pressure changes and release events. 📂 Contents Audio Files (.wav) Recorded at 96 kHz / 24-bit WAV format Exported as mono Fade-ins and fade-outs of 3–5 ms applied for consistency No compression, normalization, or creative processing applied High-pass filtered at ~40 Hz to remove subsonic rumble This preview includes 3 representative audio files, selected to demonstrate: distinct transient envelope shapes varying oral pressure release characteristics tongue- and lip-based percussive articulations Metadata (.csv) Includes structured fields for: file name sound source type airflow type phonation type gesture and articulation descriptors microphone and recording chain sample rate, bit depth, and dataset version Metadata follows the Harmonic Frontier Audio – Foundations schema. 🎤 Recording Notes Recorded in a treated studio environment using a single-mic setup: Microphone: Rode NT1-A condenser microphone Recording chain: Rode NT1-A → Zoom F8n Pro Captured at 96 kHz / 32-bit float, rendered as 96 kHz / 24-bit mono WAV for release. Natural transient dynamics were preserved to maintain articulatory realism. ⚡ Usage This preview pack is designed for: Evaluation of Harmonic Frontier Audio dataset quality and structure Testing AI systems that model vocal transients and articulatory impulses Research in phonetics and non-voiced oral gesture modeling Creative sound design involving percussive vocal elements 👉 Note: This is not a full dataset.The complete Mouth Clicks, Smacks and Pop Articulations dataset includes a substantially larger and more varied set of percussive vocal primitives and is available for licensing. 💡 Full Dataset Availability This is a preview pack of the Mouth Clicks, Smacks and Pop Articulations Dataset.The complete dataset is available for commercial licensing.
