Strip Silence allows you to easily remove all audio that drops below a specified threshold.

Strip Silence allows you to easily remove all audio that drops below a specified threshold.

• A. True
• B. False
• C. Only works on dialogue
• D. Removes only peaks above the threshold

Answer: (A)

Strip Silence lets you automatically remove portions of a clip that stay below a chosen amplitude. By setting a threshold, you define what counts as quiet, and Pro Tools analyzes the waveform to identify those low-volume sections between louder events. When you apply it, you can delete or separate the parts that fall beneath that threshold, effectively stripping out silence or background noise between spoken phrases or musical hits. This is especially handy for cleaning up dialogue, but it’s not limited to voices—any track with varying levels can benefit. It doesn’t remove audio that’s above the threshold, and it’s not restricted to dialogue content. The result is a cleaner track by removing the quieter passages, which matches the statement.
