Remove silences from a video: common questions

How does it decide what is silence?

It measures the volume every 20 milliseconds and compares it with your voice level. Whatever stays below the threshold for longer than the shortest pause is removed.

Does it work for podcasts?

Yes, it also takes audio and returns it as MP3 or WAV.

Are my files uploaded?

No. Everything happens on your device.

Is it free?
