Rev Auto Editing Audio

[bidgeeman]

I am doing a project for the local school that requires recording a long audio track and then having to go back and cut the spoken parts out and save them into a folder. It takes forever to do and I got to wondering if it might be possible to write a Rev stack that could automate the process. Could something like this be done in Rev? Does Rev have the code that could read a .wav file, detect where audio stops and starts then possibly cut out those sections and place them in a folder? Or am I just dreaming

Hi Bidge,

I have seen a stack somewhere, which displays an oscillogram. That might be a first step in your sound analysis. Now, if I only remembered where I saw this...

Hi Mark.
I did a quick search of the internet and there seems to be a lot of software that splits audio tracks based on the silence between tracks. I just thought there may be something in Rev that could search for the silence in an audio track too.

Yes, Bidge, you should be able to do that with an oscillogram.

Bidge,

Praat is mainly a TTS system. What about it?

Ahhh....yes I see...I thought praat might be able to help but no.
Sorry. I suddenly remebered in a recent post that you pointed it out to me.

Thanks Mark
