Editing the transcript

Cast lists every silence and marks it in the transcript. You set the threshold — show me pauses longer than X seconds, 0.5s by default — and then cut or shorten them, one by one or all at once.

Where

Voice Editor → Pauses.

The control is an explicit length in seconds, not an abstract sensitivity slider, so you always know exactly which pauses you are about to act on. Changing it re-filters instantly.

Shorten is usually the right action. A pause that is merely too long wants trimming to a beat — 0.3 seconds by default, and the Shorten to slider sets any length up to a second — while cutting it out entirely makes speech sound unnaturally jammed together.

• CutRemoves the silence, closes the gap.
• ShortenTrims it to a length you set — 0.3s by default.
