Silence Removal is a powerful tool that assists in cleaning up audio tracks by eliminating long pauses from an audio file in just one click. This tool will drastically cut down your audio editing time by automating the process of cutting out all unwanted silent moments within a clip.

Silences can be removed using two different tools: the within the audio editor or within the text editor.

Removing silences using the audio editor:

  1. Navigate to the audio editor and find the audio clip from which you wish to remove long pauses.

  2. Right-click on the clip and select Silence Removal from the drop-down menu.

  3. To remove silences for an entire audio project, select the AI Assistant, located in the far right corner of your account, followed by Silence Removal. This will remove all silences throughout the recording.

Removing silences using the text editor:

  1. Navigate to the text editor and click on Silences.

    1. NOTE: Your audio will first need to be transcribed in order for the text editor to appear.

  2. By default, Podcastle will search for silences longer than 0.5 seconds, but you can adjust this length to whatever works best for your project.

    1. To remove all silences within your recording, click Remove all.

    2. To remove silences on an individual basis, click each silence, followed by the Remove button.
