The ability to manipulate sound. In its most common form, sound is used as a concussive weapon that can do everything from knock people out to shattering concrete. But it can also take on more esoteric forms, like forcibly muting everything around the user or using it to accelerate healing.
This is often folded in with MasterOfIllusion, likely because non-[[MakeMeWannaShout harmful]] sound isn't perceived as "real" in the same way as tangible phenomena are.
SuperTrope to MakeMeWannaShout. Compare and contrast MusicalAssassin, GaleForceSound, and MagicMusic. Users may have the ability to use a BrownNote.
!!Examples:
[[foldercontrol]]
[[folder:Anime and Manga]]
* In one chapter of ''Manga/{{Doraemon}}'', the device of the day is a potion that "solidifies" one's voice. When Nobita shouts "Aaah", the letters AAA (in Japanese) flies out of his mouth. He has used it to shout at Giant and Suneo, knocking them out, as well as shouting towards walls to make the solid voice bounce off towards himself, giving him the ability to fly.
* ''Manga/JojosBizarreAdventure:''
** In ''Manga/JojosBizarreAdventureDiamondIsUnbreakable'', Koichi's Stand, Echoes, weaponizes {{Written Sound Effect}}s by writing them on/shooting them at targets, which are then affected by the onomatopoeia in some way.
** In ''Manga/JojosBizarreAdventureSteelBallRun'', Sandman's Stand, In A Silent Way, has the basic ability of "storing" sounds in objects. These sounds then affect people who touch the objects. He offensively uses it by storing hazardous sounds in things and setting traps with them[[note]]for example, stabbing something would store a "stabbing" sound; anybody who touches it would be stabbed[[/note]]. In A Silent Way can also make physical constructs out of sound.
* In ''Manga/MyHeroAcademia,'' Jirou's Quirk, "Earphone Jack", allows her to painfully project the sound of her heartbeat inside things she sticks the jacks on her earlobes into. When plugged into the speakers of her costume, she can project this into the air and ground with earth-shattering force.
* In ''Manga/OnePiece'', Rocinante (aka "Corazon") has a Devil Fruit power that lets him silence sounds and voices. He can either project a field where no sound gets in or out, or makes anything he touches into producing no sound/voice, including a bazooka and its projectile's explosion.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Comic Books]]
* ComicBook/{{Cyborg}}'s signature weapon in his sonic cannon, which fires a beam of concussive sound waves.
* ComicBook/SpiderMan villain Clayton Cole, aka Clash, is a self-proclaimed "Superstar of Sound", allowing him to torture Spidey with painful sound waves without causing damage to their surroundings. But he can still demolish walls and even bring down buildings with his sonic pulse generators.
* The titular character of ''ComicBook/TheSilencer'' has the ability to generate a "Zone of Silence" around herself that completely smothers any sound within, allowing her to silently take down her many targets. She can also apply it to a bullet for long-range assassinations.
* ''Franchise/XMen'': Banshee can manipulate sound in several ways. In addition to the standard [[MakeMeWannaShout sonic scream]], he can also "tighten" sound around him to create a barrier, use sonar, and change the tones of his voice to make it more persuasive and subtly influence people.
* Vibe, a member of the ''ComicBook/JusticeLeague'', has the power to project sonic shock waves from his hands that can shatter concrete and steel. Later versions of his character turned it into straight-up manipulation of vibrations, allowing him to start earthquakes that can level mountains and even mess with the fabric of reality.

* In ''Fanfic/AmazingFantasy'', Clash is supplied with the equipment of the original Clash by Mysterio. As the leader of Mysterio's Enforcers, she uses it to perform hits on those who fail to pay Mysterio back for using his equipment, silencing the area to prevent outside interference before making her foes bleed from their eyes, ears, and nose with painful sound waves.
* This is what Sean Cassidy's mutant power turns out to be in ''Fanfic/ChildOfTheStorm''. What was originally a simple case of MakeMeWannaShout has now become full-blown sound-wave manipulation. On top of his cannonical powers of flight and creating sonic waves, he can, among other things, [[BrownNote hit the frequency resonance of absolutely anything]] (the results of that are [[spoiler:liquified Hydra agents]]) and can silence the sound around him for perfect stealth.

[[folder:Tabletop Game]]
* ''TabletopGame/ArsMagica'': The ''Imaginem'' magical form manipulates the five senses, including sound. Practitioners can create, control, or suppress sound in an area or around specific targets; this can be as blatant as trapping someone's voice in a sack, or as subtle as modifying the voice to sound especially noble and authoritative.
* ''TabletopGame/DungeonsAndDragons'':
** Most sound-creating spells are either of the MakeMeWannaShout variety or [[MasterOfIllusion illusions]], which usually affect other senses as well. Depending on the edition, listeners have a chance to disbelieve auditory illusions and tune them out.
** The "Control Sound" {{Psychic Power|s}} lets the user suppress, amplify, or replace any one sound or related combination of sounds in the area of effect.
** The BoringButPractical "Silence" spell suppresses all sound in an area. It serves as the poor man's AntiMagic, since it makes {{Magical Incantation}}s impossible. In 5[[superscript:th]] Edition, it has the extra benefit of making the area immune to Thunder damage.
* ''TabletopGame/MageTheAwakening'': Mages can train in the Arcanum of Forces to manipulate sound and other forms of energy. At the most basic level, they can displace sounds from their source; more advanced Forces spells can selectively control all sound in an area or around specific targets.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Video Game]]
* In ''VideoGame/CadenceOfHyrule'', Green Wizzrobe's projectiles silence the music when they hit the player, making it harder to stay on beat.
* In ''VideoGame/CryptOfTheNecrodancer'', getting hit with the Banshee boss's attack mutes the music for a few seconds, forcing the player to rely on the beat meter to keep time.
* ''VideoGame/DOTA2:''
** Silence is a StandardStatusEffect which prevents the use of active skills while also disabling any active channeling abilities. It does not, however, disrupt passive effects or any non-channeling skills that are already active. Several heroes have access to Silence in various forms. A rarer status effect, Mute, has a similar effect in that it disables the use of items.
** Naturally, Silencer uses this as his stock and trade. His Ultimate ability, Global Silence, comes with an InterfaceScrew on top of applying Silence to every enemy unit on the field, as all in-game sound is muffled for the affected players for the duration.
* In ''VideoGame/FateGrandOrder'', Berserker of El Dorado leads the Amazons in a powerful war cry that greatly increases their fighting strength. It takes Astolfo's La Black Luna to dispel it.
* Silence is a StandardStatusEffect across the ''Franchise/FinalFantasy'' series, preventing the afflicted from casting spells by rendering them mute.
* In ''VideoGame/LeagueOfLegends'', Battlecast Prime Cho'Gath's ''Feral Scream'' is powered by "451 Exawatt Omnisonic Speakers" mounted on its back.[[note]]That amount of energy is equivalent to 2,000 Tsar Bombas or 100,000,000,000 tons of TNT.[[/note]]
* In ''VideoGame/MegaManClassic'', Shade Man's special weapon is the Noise Crush, which fires off a sound wave that bounces off objects to hit additional targets. His [=NetNavi=] counterpart in ''VideoGame/MegaManBattleNetwork'' shares this ability.
* In ''VideoGame/{{Warframe}}'', Banshee is a Warframe focused around manipulating sound, rendering her weapons and the surrounding area silent to disorient her foes and pick them off one by one. Her ''Sonar'' ability uses echolocation to expose weak points on her enemies' bodies, while her ''Sonic Boom'' and ''Sound Quake'' abilities push back foes with bursts of sound powerful enough to create earthquakes.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Western Animation]]
* ''WesternAnimation/BatmanBeyond'' villain Shriek uses his sound manipulation tech to try and convince Bruce that he was hearing voices and going insane. He can use the same technology to stimulate pleasure centers of the brain with vibrations and drive animals berserk with a special frequency only they can hear. When that fails, he often goes the conventional route of pummeling Batman with concussive blasts of sound.

This is often folded in with MasterOfIllusion, likely because non-[[MakeMeWannaShout harmful]] sound isn't perceived as "real" in the same way as tangible phenomena are.
SuperTrope to MakeMeWannaShout. Compare and contrast MusicalAssassin, GaleForceSound, and MagicMusic. Users may have the ability to use a BrownNote.

[[folder:Anime and Manga]]
* In one chapter of ''Manga/{{Doraemon}}'', the device of the day is a potion that "solidifies" one's voice. When Nobita shouts "Aaah", the letters AAA (in Japanese) flies out of his mouth. He has used it to shout at Giant and Suneo, knocking them out, as well as shouting towards walls to make the solid voice bounce off towards himself, giving him the ability to fly.
* ''Manga/JojosBizarreAdventure:''
** In ''Manga/JojosBizarreAdventureDiamondIsUnbreakable'', Koichi's Stand, Echoes, weaponizes {{Written Sound Effect}}s by writing them on/shooting them at targets, which are then affected by the onomatopoeia in some way.
** In ''Manga/JojosBizarreAdventureSteelBallRun'', Sandman's Stand, In A Silent Way, has the basic ability of "storing" sounds in objects. These sounds then affect people who touch the objects. He offensively uses it by storing hazardous sounds in things and setting traps with them[[note]]for example, stabbing something would store a "stabbing" sound; anybody who touches it would be stabbed[[/note]]. In A Silent Way can also make physical constructs out of sound.
* In ''Manga/MyHeroAcademia,'' Jirou's Quirk, "Earphone Jack", allows her to painfully project the sound of her heartbeat inside things she sticks the jacks on her earlobes into. When plugged into the speakers of her costume, she can project this into the air and ground with earth-shattering force.
* In ''Manga/OnePiece'', Rocinante (aka "Corazon") has a Devil Fruit power that lets him silence sounds and voices. He can either project a field where no sound gets in or out, or makes anything he touches into producing no sound/voice, including a bazooka and its projectile's explosion.

[[folder:Comic Books]]
* ComicBook/{{Cyborg}}'s signature weapon in his sonic cannon, which fires a beam of concussive sound waves.
* ComicBook/SpiderMan villain Clayton Cole, aka Clash, is a self-proclaimed "Superstar of Sound", allowing him to torture Spidey with painful sound waves without causing damage to their surroundings. But he can still demolish walls and even bring down buildings with his sonic pulse generators.
* The titular character of ''ComicBook/TheSilencer'' has the ability to generate a "Zone of Silence" around herself that completely smothers any sound within, allowing her to silently take down her many targets. She can also apply it to a bullet for long-range assassinations.
* ''Franchise/XMen'': Banshee can manipulate sound in several ways. In addition to the standard [[MakeMeWannaShout sonic scream]], he can also "tighten" sound around him to create a barrier, use sonar, and change the tones of his voice to make it more persuasive and subtly influence people.
* Vibe, a member of the ''ComicBook/JusticeLeague'', has the power to project sonic shock waves from his hands that can shatter concrete and steel. Later versions of his character turned it into straight-up manipulation of vibrations, allowing him to start earthquakes that can level mountains and even mess with the fabric of reality.

[[folder:Literature]]
* In ''LightNovel/FateApocrypha'', Astolfo's La Black Luna is a horn that can produce a massive sound that is akin to "the roar of a dragon, the cry of a giant bird, and the neighing of a divine horse". This is powerful enough to pulverize people's skeletons into dust and renders all targets deaf from the noise.

[[folder:Fan Works]]
* In ''Fanfic/AmazingFantasy'', Clash is supplied with the equipment of the original Clash by Mysterio. As the leader of Mysterio's Enforcers, she uses it to perform hits on those who fail to pay Mysterio back for using his equipment, silencing the area to prevent outside interference before making her foes bleed from their eyes, ears, and nose with painful sound waves.
* This is what Sean Cassidy's mutant power turns out to be in ''Fanfic/ChildOfTheStorm''. What was originally a simple case of MakeMeWannaShout has now become full-blown sound-wave manipulation. On top of his cannonical powers of flight and creating sonic waves, he can, among other things, [[BrownNote hit the frequency resonance of absolutely anything]] (the results of that are [[spoiler:liquified Hydra agents]]) and can silence the sound around him for perfect stealth.

[[folder:Tabletop Game]]
* ''TabletopGame/ArsMagica'': The ''Imaginem'' magical form manipulates the five senses, including sound. Practitioners can create, control, or suppress sound in an area or around specific targets; this can be as blatant as trapping someone's voice in a sack, or as subtle as modifying the voice to sound especially noble and authoritative.
* ''TabletopGame/DungeonsAndDragons'':
** Most sound-creating spells are either of the MakeMeWannaShout variety or [[MasterOfIllusion illusions]], which usually affect other senses as well. Depending on the edition, listeners have a chance to disbelieve auditory illusions and tune them out.
** The "Control Sound" {{Psychic Power|s}} lets the user suppress, amplify, or replace any one sound or related combination of sounds in the area of effect.
** The BoringButPractical "Silence" spell suppresses all sound in an area. It serves as the poor man's AntiMagic, since it makes {{Magical Incantation}}s impossible. In 5[[superscript:th]] Edition, it has the extra benefit of making the area immune to Thunder damage.
* ''TabletopGame/MageTheAwakening'': Mages can train in the Arcanum of Forces to manipulate sound and other forms of energy. At the most basic level, they can displace sounds from their source; more advanced Forces spells can selectively control all sound in an area or around specific targets.

[[folder:Video Game]]
* In ''VideoGame/CadenceOfHyrule'', Green Wizzrobe's projectiles silence the music when they hit the player, making it harder to stay on beat.
* In ''VideoGame/CryptOfTheNecrodancer'', getting hit with the Banshee boss's attack mutes the music for a few seconds, forcing the player to rely on the beat meter to keep time.
* ''VideoGame/DOTA2:''
** Silence is a StandardStatusEffect which prevents the use of active skills while also disabling any active channeling abilities. It does not, however, disrupt passive effects or any non-channeling skills that are already active. Several heroes have access to Silence in various forms. A rarer status effect, Mute, has a similar effect in that it disables the use of items.
** Naturally, Silencer uses this as his stock and trade. His Ultimate ability, Global Silence, comes with an InterfaceScrew on top of applying Silence to every enemy unit on the field, as all in-game sound is muffled for the affected players for the duration.
* In ''VideoGame/FateGrandOrder'', Berserker of El Dorado leads the Amazons in a powerful war cry that greatly increases their fighting strength. It takes Astolfo's La Black Luna to dispel it.
* Silence is a StandardStatusEffect across the ''Franchise/FinalFantasy'' series, preventing the afflicted from casting spells by rendering them mute.
* In ''VideoGame/LeagueOfLegends'', Battlecast Prime Cho'Gath's ''Feral Scream'' is powered by "451 Exawatt Omnisonic Speakers" mounted on its back.[[note]]That amount of energy is equivalent to 2,000 Tsar Bombas or 100,000,000,000 tons of TNT.[[/note]]
* In ''VideoGame/MegaManClassic'', Shade Man's special weapon is the Noise Crush, which fires off a sound wave that bounces off objects to hit additional targets. His [=NetNavi=] counterpart in ''VideoGame/MegaManBattleNetwork'' shares this ability.
* In ''VideoGame/{{Warframe}}'', Banshee is a Warframe focused around manipulating sound, rendering her weapons and the surrounding area silent to disorient her foes and pick them off one by one. Her ''Sonar'' ability uses echolocation to expose weak points on her enemies' bodies, while her ''Sonic Boom'' and ''Sound Quake'' abilities push back foes with bursts of sound powerful enough to create earthquakes.

[[folder:Western Animation]]
* ''WesternAnimation/BatmanBeyond'' villain Shriek uses his sound manipulation tech to try and convince Bruce that he was hearing voices and going insane. He can use the same technology to stimulate pleasure centers of the brain with vibrations and drive animals berserk with a special frequency only they can hear. When that fails, he often goes the conventional route of pummeling Batman with concussive blasts of sound.
