Linked
Activate this, to set the same values for Open Threshold and Close Threshold.
Min. Time open
Determines the minimum time that the function remains open after the audio
level has exceeded the Open Threshold value.
NOTE
If your audio contains repeated short sounds, and this results in too many short
open sections, try raising this value.
Min. Time closed
Determines the minimum time that the function remains closed after the audio
level has dropped below the Close Threshold value. Set this to a low value to
make sure that you do not remove sounds.
Pre-roll
Causes the function to open slightly before the audio level exceeds the Open
Threshold value. Use this option to avoid removing the attack of sounds.
Post-roll
Causes the function to close slightly after the audio level drops below the Close
Threshold value. Use this option to avoid removing the natural decay of sounds.
Add as Regions
Creates regions of the non-silent sections, and allows you to specify a name for
them in the Region Name field. A number is appended on each region name,
starting with the number specified in the Auto Number Start field.
Strip Silence
Splits the event at the beginning and end of each non-silent section, and removes
the silent sections in between.
Process all selected Events
Applies the same settings to all selected events. This option is only available if
you selected more than one event.
Compute
Analyzes the audio event and redraws the waveform display to indicate which
sections are considered silent. The number of detected regions is displayed
above the Compute button.
Auto
Activate this option to analyze the audio event and update the display
automatically every time you change the settings.
NOTE
If you are working with very long files, consider deactivating the Auto option as
this may slow down the process.
