Justin Kahn. After reviewing a number of quality of life techniques recently , today we are taking a closer look at how to Remove Silence in Logic Pro X. Anyone who records audio will know good and well how tedious it can be to edit the undesirable noise out of a recording. It is a basic tool you can use to remove the unwanted noise in an audio region.

Using a series of basic controls, you can influence the way with which that determination is made. In other words, Logic will analyze the file automatically for you, and then using the visual aid provided, we can adjust the Threshold, Minimum Time, Pre-Attack, and Post-Release settings to ensure it is only removing the parts of the file we want.

At which point, the audio region will then get automatically chopped up — the original performance otherwise untouched — into new regions with all of the unwanted or noisy areas in the original selection removed. Threshold is how we adjust the sensitivity. It is used to define the amplitude or loudness a waveform must exceed in order to be considered a region, as opposed to noise that will be removed.

In other words, you can use this control in tandem with the visual aid to determine what parts of the audio region to keep and what to remove represented by the grayed-out portions as seen above. You can think of the following three perimeters as ways to fine-tune the setting you have made on the Threshold.

Minimum Time to accept as Silence is used to define the length of time an area of your selected audio region must be under the set Threshold to be considered noise.

Pre-Attack Time and Post-Release Tim e allow us to adjust to beginning and end point of each of the newly created regions. We can use these controls to add a little bit of extra time before and after the new regions in order to ensure none of the good stuff gets deleted or chopped off with the rest of the unwanted noise. Note: None of the selections or alterations made via the Remove Silence in Logic will change the timing or position of the audio in the project.

The Search Zero Crossing check box is also notable. It will bump the edges of the newly created regions, based on your Pre-Attack and Post-Release settings, to the nearest zero crossing. Once you have the four settings the way you like based on the visual feedback, simply hit the OK button in the lower-right corner to complete the job. The original region selection will then automatically be chopped in to new regions and is otherwise left on the track just as it was beforehand. One quick key command, a few minor adjustments, and all the noise in the selection is gone.

Logic will also remember your settings the next time you open the Remove Silence window, which makes for even faster edits, especially when dealing with similarly recorded audio files. You can also simply drag the edges of the newly created regions if some of the edits need to be reconsidered at a later point in production.

Simply select all the newly created, noise-free regions the Remove Silence function just helped you make they will automatically be selected immediately after you hit the OK button.
