Silence Duration Checker

Scans your audio for stretches of dead air (1+ seconds) so you can trim them before publishing — analyzed locally, no upload.

Detection works by scanning the audio in short 50-millisecond windows and flagging any stretch where the peak volume stays below a low amplitude threshold for at least a full second — quick pauses for breath or natural speech rhythm won't trigger it, only genuinely dead air.

  • A good first pass for finding a stuck recording, a long edit gap, or a forgotten pause before intro music — the kind of dead air that's easy to miss scrubbing through a long episode by ear alone.
  • Still worth listening through anything flagged before cutting it — a deliberate dramatic pause looks identical to this analysis as an accidental one, and only a human ear can tell the two apart.
