Frequently asked questions
No, it only cuts the extra silence at the very start and end; everything in between is kept as is.
No, the tool always leaves a small bit of quiet at each end so the sound fades in and out naturally instead of cutting off sharply.
Start with "Medium"; if there's still leftover quiet (background hiss, breathing) switch to "Strong". If it's cutting into soft speech at the start, switch to "Light".
The result will be an almost empty file, since the entire content counts as silence.
