Strip Silence - Overview

Learn how to activate and configure the strip silence feature in Forte Import.

Strip Silence - Overview

Enabling strip silence

  • In Forte Import, click on Customize in the settings menu.
  • Locate the Strip Silence checkbox and enable it.

Adjusting strip silence settings

  • Click the cog (settings) icon next to the Strip Silence option.
  • Here, you can adjust all strip silence parameters to suit your needs (such as threshold, minimum silence duration, and padding).
  • The default settings are intentionally “loose,” ensuring you don’t accidentally cut any important audio.
  • If you make changes and want to revert to the original settings, click Restore to Default.

Saving and applying the settings

  • Once you’ve set your preferences, click Save to confirm.
  • Now, when you import your tracks, Forte will automatically apply strip silence to each one at the end of the process.
