Frequently Asked Questions
What threshold should I use for silence detection?
It depends on your recording. For studio-quality audio with a clean noise floor, -50 dB to -60 dB works well. For podcasts and voice recordings with some background noise, try -35 dB to -45 dB. For noisy recordings, use -25 dB to -30 dB. Start with the default and adjust until the detected regions match what you hear as silence.
Can the tool detect silence automatically?
Yes! The tool performs RMS (Root Mean Square) analysis of the audio waveform to automatically find regions where the volume drops below your chosen threshold for longer than the minimum duration. All detected regions are highlighted on the waveform for easy review.
What is the "Reduce to N seconds" mode?
Instead of removing silence completely, this mode shortens long pauses to a fixed duration you specify (e.g., 0.5 seconds). This is ideal for podcasts and interviews where you want to tighten the pacing while keeping natural-sounding pauses between sentences.
Does it work well with podcasts and voice recordings?
Absolutely. This tool is ideal for cleaning up podcasts, interviews, lectures, and voice recordings. It removes dead air, awkward pauses, and long gaps while preserving the natural flow of speech. The "Reduce" mode is especially useful for podcast editing, as it maintains brief pauses for a natural listening experience.
