  3. 3Run the scan to detect silent regions
  4. 4Review the results on the waveform timeline

Frequently Asked Questions

What threshold should I use?

It depends on your recording. Start around -40 dB for typical room noise. If too much is flagged, lower the threshold; if silence is missed, raise it.

Can I remove the silent sections automatically?

Yes. After detection, you can choose to strip the silent regions and export a tightened version of the audio.
