Silence a section of a track in place. Unlike cutting, the total length doesn't change — useful for muting a swear word, a name, or a beep moment.
Mute Audio silences — or merely lowers — a chosen stretch of a recording while leaving the total length untouched, so everything after it stays in sync with video or other tracks. It is the standard way to bleep out a name, hide a copyrighted snippet, remove a loud bang or silence a section of background chatter.
A hard mute is itself an edit that can click, so the selection gets a fade at both edges (default 10 ms, up to 200 ms). If you only need to soften something, switch to “Turn it down” and pick a reduction from 6 to 60 dB.
Within the selection the gain is multiplied by a window that falls to zero (or to the chosen floor) over the fade time and rises again at the end. Outside the selection samples are copied untouched. Because nothing is deleted, the duration and timing of the file remain identical — unlike the Cutter, which shortens the file.
Mute names, numbers and addresses before sharing a recording.
Silence a few seconds of background music in a clip.
Remove a door slam or microphone bump.
Keep timing intact for a track that must match picture.
| Length change | None — the file stays the same duration |
|---|---|
| Modes | Complete silence · reduce by 6–60 dB |
| Fade | 0–200 ms at both edges |
Not from the downloaded file — keep the original.
No. Samples outside the selection are untouched.
No — muting replaces the selected region with silence but keeps the total duration unchanged, unlike the Audio Cutter.
Right now each pass mutes one region. To mute two separate sections, run the tool again on the result.
