What is Find silence in audio?
Silence Gap Finder β Find dead air in voiceovers fast: paste dB level values to map every silence gap with precise start times and durations, ready for tighter edits.
Pure logic on the dB series you paste β no AI, no audio file decoding. Any window below the threshold (default -40 dB) counts as silent; consecutive silent windows form a gap, kept only if it lasts at least minGapMs (default 400 ms). Suggested cut points are gap midpoints rounded to whole ms; total silence is the sum of kept gaps in seconds. A value exactly at the threshold is not silent (strictly below). If nothing is found, the result is honestly empty β raise the threshold and re-run.

How to use Silence Gap Finder
- 1Paste your level values as comma-separated dB numbers β one value per analysis window (10 ms each by default), at least 8 values.
- 2Optionally set the silence threshold in dB (default -40; range -80 to -10) β anything below it counts as silent.
- 3Optionally set the minimum gap length in ms (default 400) so tiny pauses are ignored.
- 4Run the finder to get every silence gap with start/end times, cut points at gap midpoints, and total silence in seconds.
- 5If no gaps are listed, raise the threshold (e.g. -40 to -35 dB) and re-run.

Good to know
- Accepts numeric dB series only β it does NOT read audio files; file decoding is the app shellβs job.
- Expects dB-scale values (negative numbers); values exactly at the threshold are not silent.
- Noisy room tone may need the threshold raised (e.g. -40 to -30 dB) to register as silence.
- An empty result honestly means no gaps at the current settings β not an error.
- Same values always produce the same gaps β the algorithm is fully deterministic.
How it works
Pure logic on the dB series you paste β no AI, no audio file decoding. Any window below the threshold (default -40 dB) counts as silent; consecutive silent windows form a gap, kept only if it lasts at least minGapMs (default 400 ms). Suggested cut points are gap midpoints rounded to whole ms; total silence is the sum of kept gaps in seconds. A value exactly at the threshold is not silent (strictly below). If nothing is found, the result is honestly empty β raise the threshold and re-run.
Examples
The 600 ms silent run becomes one gap (200-800 ms) with a suggested cut point at 500 ms.
No gaps found at -40 dB β raise the threshold toward -30 dB to catch quiet room tone.
