How to remove silence from audio

Open a recording, choose how much of each pause to leave, and Mastershot finds every silence on your device and cuts it out. Untick any cut you want to keep, listen through, and save the shorter recording in its own format.

    Choose a recording
    Pick a podcast, voice memo, or lecture.
  2. Step 2

    Set the pace
    Choose how much pause to leave, and untick any cut.
  3. Step 3

    Download the audio
    Save it with the silences cut out.

What to expect

Supported inputs
MP3, M4A, WAV, OGG, FLAC, and other recordings this browser can read, or a video whose sound you want.
What happens
Pauses longer than your setting are shortened rather than removed outright. The parts kept are copied from the original without re-encoding, so the sound isn't changed.
Limits
Music or steady noise under the speech hides the pauses. “Um”s and “uh”s can be cut in English only.
