How to monitor only when a binary is launched

How to monitor only when a binary is launched

Hello,
Aide or clamscan are analyzing all the files on the system thus generating a lot of messages
They are binaries that I can trust so I can exclude their activity from auditd.
I know that I can do this with -a never,exit -F arch=b64 -F exe=/sbin/aide

However I would like to have an entry for the execution of the binary itself with the parameters used.
I would like to turn off only the report of the syscall it issued .

Is there a general way to achieve that : record the launch of a binary but not its actions.
Thanks
Philippe

Wouldn't -a always,exit -S execve  do the job?
