Abstract
Provided are techniques for voice focus enabled by predetermined triggers. Voice recognition is used to identify one or more pre-determined triggers from a voice of a speaker. In response to identifying the one or more pre-determined triggers, a voice recognition template is dynamically created for the voice of the speaker, and the voice recognition template and voice isolation are used to focus on the voice from the speaker.
