However, normally a pause isn't completely
silent, but might include noises from the record
or hissing from the cassette. For this reason,
MAGIX Audio Cleaning Lab SE only detects
pauses if the recording falls below a certain level
(threshold) for a specified period of time.
The higher this level, the more often a pause will
be detected, but this can lead to incorrect
detection of pauses at quiet sections in songs.
However, if this level is set too low, pauses which
feature a lot of noise like hissing or crackling may
not be detected.
The pause section with marked level, and pause length
The second step checks to make sure the interval between the pauses is long
enough. For example, it is very improbable that a recording of the top ten will
contain pauses a minute long. If this sort of thing is detected, then marking for
the second pause is removed.
Incorrectly detected pause which was removed automatically because the
interval to the previous pause was too short
The third step examines the start and end of the audio material more precisely:
Records always feature a loud bump when the needle is placed on the record
and another one when it is removed from the record at the end of the
recording. MAGIX Audio Cleaning Lab SE attempts to recognize these noises
and to exclude them, i.e. object edges are automatically moved inwards to
match the start and end of the actual music.
There are sensible presets for thresholds and times in the track marker
