Wrote down the steps for myself, so just sharing in case someone needs a little help: Adobe Premiere 1. Insert video clip into timeline 2. Insert and sync secondary audio source with original video clip 3. Mute video audio track 4. Export media as WAV Audition 1. Open exported WAV 2. Open Diagnostics panel (Window > Diagnostics) 3. On the Effect Drop Down, select Delete Silence 4. Click on find levels (fine tune if necessary) 5. Click Scan 6. Check to see if clips are actually silent parts of audio 7. Select all clips (Ctrl/Cmd A) 8. Right click and choose Create Markers 9. Open Markers window and make sure first marker is set to 0:00:00 10. Select all markers, right click > Change Marker Types > Subclip 11. Save Media Encoder 1. Open saved WAV 2. Set export type to Quicktime > Apple ProRes 422 Proxy (fast render) 3. Make sure frame rate matches original video 4. Export Adobe Premiere 1. Import new video clip 2. Delete video and leave only clips (will be first one on the list of the imported clips) 3. Select all clips 4. Menu > Clip > Create Multi-Camera Source Sequence 5. Select Timecode on Synchronize Point 6. Check Create single multicam source sequence 7. On Track Assignments select Camera Label or Camera Angle 8. Hit OK 9. Open generated clip by holding Ctrl/Cmd double clicking. 10. Lock video track and duplicate audio track (Alt+Shift drag down) to match the amount of tracks on original sequence (3) 11. Unlock video track 12. Select all (Ctrl/Cmd A) 13. Paste into original timeline at 0:00:00 14. Delete clips folder and generated clip 15. Select all clips on timeline 16. Menu > Sequence > Close Gap 17. Voila!

HOLY MOTHER OF GOD... This is going to save an absolutely just ungodly amount of time while editing gaming footage. Thank you so much.

I just can't believe that both this video and this channel are not so popular yet! So underrated! I saved me hours of cutting clips. Thank you!!

Thank you very much, Ive searched for exactly THIS! All the other videos of other youtubers dont explain this. Its a complex problem, so thank you very much for solving it and showing us the solution here!

Man if I knew this trick 4-5 years back, I would have saved almost a year of editing work. Thanks a lot

Had to fiddle with each step a few times but ultimately I got this to work, saved me probably 20 hours. TYSM!

Finally, Thanks for the Amazing Tutorials Man, Can't wait for this One!

This video is gold. It can save many people a lot of money these days and can bring down many startups in 2024

omg! Thanks a lot. Man you are the winner! Keep it going! Thank you so much. So much time will be saved now.

This is extremely helpful! Thanks so much!

I've followed the other tutorial on doing this, this one is a little more involved at first glance, but worked out nice. Just got to get all the steps down in my head now. Thanks!

Thank you so much, Paul! Cut my workflow down from 6hrs to 2hrs. Thanks!

Tremendously helpful, thank you!

Amazing!!! Thank you very much!

Incredible. I followed it and it worked great

man you just saved me days, thank you so much for the tutorial and for still answering comments to this day

This video was awesome. It really helped me in a project. Thanks!!

Finally found this video, THANK YOU

i have been tryna figure out how to do this right since this morning and finally got it you are the best

Genius! Thank you

Thank you!! You are my hero. This is such a useful technique. No one else is talking about this technique.

Thought provoking solution to the problem. Thanks for sharing!

you are a champion, i have been manually deleting silences on my 30+ minute clips for months now

Freaking hell mate. You are just a blessing in disguise. Hands down the number one thing that saved hours on my workflow. You're the best!

Thank you so much for sharing selflessly, helping me solve a lot of precious time

Wonderful technique. Love it.

nice, thanks!

This video deserves a million likes! I can't thank you enough, now there is time left to live! 😂😂😂 Thank you! Thank you so much!

Great work! Keep it up!

this is genius, thank you so much

Didn't know i needed adobe audition untill now! 👀

thanks a lot!!!

Lifesaver!

the most important part: 02:30 thank you!

Thanks! Much appreciated!

Thanks a lot againn! you gave me happiness

I can not wait haha

great video, what used to take me one full day of editing now only took me about an hour

huge thanks dear

After removing the silence is there a way to also create a milti - cam editing sequence to swap between cameras?

This is HUGE!! Merci beaucoup :)

Cool and clever!

This is Perfect😃✌ thanks

omg this is better than the last video, thanks senpai!

thanks man amazing 💖😍😍

You are great!

I just press Delete All after creating markers since I only work with clean audio files and save the file without silence. Takes less than 1 minute and removes the need of all of the other steps. Thank you!

Note: On PC, the Apple render to the .mov does not work with all the subclips. I had to render in AME as a MPEG4 file, making sure my framerates matched. Hope this helps PC users

Solid gold, thank you! Now I'm going to be the "quiet on set" police

thank you so much!

Dude.... You Rock... you just saved me doing 205 hand edits trying to fix the Dead Silence problem for ACX.... Thank you... Drinks on me next time you're in LA... Joe

AWESOME 💥

Oh gosh you saved my life !! Thank you !! I recorded a 5 hours podcast... I was already depressed ^^'

I have been using the technique for almost a year. I kept having videos where large portions of the audio track were detected as silence. Since a few days the error is in almost every video. It also does not work in Audition to scan in 20 minute segments. Even if I split the audio track in Audacity into several files, which only last 20 minutes, the error occurs. Does anyone have a solution?

I knew that your work flow (this combination of premiere media encoder and audition) was possible but I wasn't able to apply it, I just had a feeling (obviously I missed some specific details). The most similar Premiere app/plug in that can do what you show is Time Bolt. I think that there are no tutorials that show this exquisite work flow. I still watch this tutorial to learn the logic in the procedures. Finally, I followed your instructions and the results were great!

hey there. thanks for the video. I am curious if it is possible while recording audio to automatically remove silence while saving a recorded audio?

Awesome video - subscribed. Just to confirm, if there are two audio track of different people speaking, from two mics, so the audio wave thing will look different. And I want to remove clips only where both tracks are silent, will this work?

This video will literally save me so many hours of work I feel guilty that I got it for free.

Hi this is very helpful! but is there any way to just remove only the long silence? exclude the short one? like breathing. Please

I use a mobile phone, do you have an app that supports this please?

BRO THIS IS INSANELY F****** SMART OMG BRO Definitely a day saver, people need to know about this strat, jesus

MERCI MERCI !

1st time i saw your video & thank you, thank you for your video & knowledge... Like & subscribe from my side

Hello bro, so long. You know I'm cramming this, but unlike before, now my pc is very slow doing it, It's a clip of only 12 minutes and I can barely move it. and it generates up to 30 gb of ram... Any ideas?

Extension is not working....only blank...how to get working extension to do this process?

Omg thank you so much for doing this also for multiple files, I was on the brink of despair today.... This is gonna give me so much extra life time 🥳 One question: Does this also work for Davinci Resolve?

I can't get it to work - even after scanning the dB levels, it just highlights big chunks from the video - like 30 seconds of audio with my voice. It's a long file (over 1 hour). Maybe the length is an issue?

This is brilliant..! I wish Premiere has this ability built-in rather than making us rely on other adobe tools..

Unfortunately I can't get this to work for really long clips (1 hour long).. only when I select a smaller section and scan does it find the silence.. otherwise it just finds 30 second chunks that include silence and audio.. any tips?

I do voice over and I want to remove gaps or pauses(silent gaps) in my 1 hr audio file..please tell me how can I do that..Beacuse manually cutting gaps takes 12 hrs or more for me..please help me out

From Premiere Pro, you can right clieck on the AUDIO FILE and SEND TO AUDITION, so you don't need to export manually at the beginning

This is great! Unfortunately, Audition cannot handle videos longer than about 30 minutes in my experience. I've found anecdotes elsewhere online that suggest the same. Seems like a very basic inconvenience Adobe would have fixed by now.

Two other people mentioned this same problem. No subclips import. I checked and there still on the saved audio export from audition. And even on the media encoder export. All markers are marked as subclips. Someone mentioned that you had to be in 'list view' in premiere, then import the file. Worked for them I guess but still no cigar for me.

Do you have a follow up on this about trouble shooting when it cuts off mid sentence or is missing quiet parts?

@2:08 You recommend double checking the silences in the list. What if some are incorrect, like it grabbed a sigh I wanted to keep? Thanks for the tutorial btw. Audition is scary

Teşekkür ederim

@The Premiere Pro Thanks, but after closing the gap, i realize that there is a very weird noise between every two tracks and there are a huge number of those noises as the huge number of subclips have been deleted. What is the solution for that and do you have any video to show how to avoid that ? Thanks

I’m having a problem, when I open the multi camera source sequence into my timeline, it shows all of the silent moments in dark green and the talking in lighter green. I have to manually delete each individual audio frame before getting my timeline to be just the silent moment timecodes. What am I doing wrong?

when i upload my video the sub clips in the premier pro it shows them as a single video please help

I dont need this algorithm for multiple video files below each other, I need it for multiple video files BEHIND each other, so I can skip the part 4:40-5:10. 4:32 Everything till there has worked, but here I didnt get seperated video clips, instead I got already a mix of the non silent parts in blue and the silent parts marked in green. 5:23 The pasting doesnt work, if I press controll and v there, premiere does nothing. Also, if I try to delete only the silent parts at 5:36, which are marked in blue in my timeline, while the not silent parts are marked in green, it deletes all and it doesnt matter, which one of that two in the project window I delete, it always delets my hole timeline then. How can this be fixed?

For some reason, when I click "Scan," it detects way too much as silence. I found out that when I select a small portion of the file and scan it, it works fine, but when I do it on the whole file it basically doesn't work at all. It also says "664 problems detected, 0 problems repaired." What do I do?

you have saved me so much time

Any way to delete silence in multitrack?

When you create the multi-camera source sequence, it puts all of your markers on a single video and single audio track. When I attempt to do the same, it creates a separate audio track for each marker. If I have 100 markers, the new sequence it creates will have 100 tracks. Why is this happening? I'm new, sorry!

If I'm working with strictly audio and not video is there a way to just simply delete all the Silence from within Adobe audition?

I don't know why but when I delete the .mov file all the clips delete and just hold the silence part

Hey, it seems that every body gets it. I tried to figure it out but impossible to get subclips when I export from Audition to Media Encoder then to Premiere Pro.

Any way to do this in fl studio

it is very hactic

i can not get the file to import into premeire with all of the subclips. It's loading as a single audio file that is just as long as the original file. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong

when i tried exporting the subclip video to Premiere, it only shows up as one video. I wonder what happened?

after i click scan nothing shows. im referring to 1:56 can anyone help me

i love you so much Bro. hahahahahahahaha thanks a lot

Wish I had this trick when I was a AE

Right click there in no change marker type. Please help

UPDATE: No matter what I do, it won't bring in the subclips to Premiere Pro now! Please update the video, this doesn't work for me now in 2021 version :(

Is there a way to make this work with shortening silences instead of deleting them? I have trouble using the delete silence and ive found that shortening silence is much easier and faster for me.
