How it works
How to remove silence, free, in three steps.
1
Drop in your video or audio
MP4, MOV, WebM, MP3, WAV or M4A, from a phone, a camera, a screen recorder or a podcast mic. It opens in your browser; nothing is uploaded.
2
Check the cuts
Every pause is found and marked on the waveform. Set how quiet counts as silence, how long a pause must be, and how much breathing room to leave. The cuts update as you move the sliders.
3
Download the tightened file
Get it back in the same kind of file, at full quality with no watermark. Or download the cuts as an EDL and open them in Premiere Pro or DaVinci Resolve.
Why this one
Free, with nothing held back, and nothing uploaded.
Finds the pauses for you
It listens to the whole recording and sets the threshold from its own room noise and voice level, so it works on a quiet studio mic and a noisy phone alike.
Cuts that don't click
The sound fades over 10 milliseconds into and out of every cut, and short gaps of breath are kept, so the result sounds edited, not chopped.
Full quality, no watermark
Videos come back as an MP4 at their own resolution, up to 4K, encoded at high quality. Audio comes back as the format it came in: M4A, MP3 or WAV.
Keep editing in your editor
Download the cut list as an EDL, import it into Premiere Pro or DaVinci Resolve, and the jump cuts are on your timeline, linked to your original file.
Your file is opened and processed by your own browser. It is never sent to a server, so it stays private, and there’s no upload to wait for.
What is a jump cut?
A jump cut is a cut within one continuous shot, so the speaker seems to jump slightly from one sentence to the next. On YouTube, TikTok and Reels it has become the standard edit for talking to camera: it takes out every pause, keeps the energy up and makes a long take watchable.
This generator starts tighter than the silence remover: a pause counts from 0.3 seconds, and only 0.08 seconds of it is kept either side of the words. That's the rapid-fire pace short-form creators use. Loosen it with the sliders for a calmer edit.
