Audition’s new strip silence feature should save us a lot of time, but because it’s not always right, I’ve developed a useful, unusual technique that gives me a bit of flexibility in how I apply it. It’s a bit of a fudge, but who doesn’t like fudge?

If you’d rather not watch the video, or you generally know what you’re doing, it boils down to running the new Delete Silence feature with the option to Split Silences enabled (after you’ve balanced your volume and gotten your settings for audio and silence dialled in), then marking the selected silences as SFX, and muting them. Then, review and tweak the cuts, and finally, select the silences using Edit ▸ Select ▸ Clips of Audio Type ▸ Sound Effects, and delete them en masse.
