Tool usage guide
This tool adds a specified duration of silence to the start or end of an audio file. It's designed for quick padding adjustments without complex editing software.
Background
A podcast host records episodes and needs a consistent 1.5-second silence at the start for intro music fade-in.
Problem
Manually adding silence in audio editors is repetitive and prone to errors.
How to use
Upload the episode audio, set duration to 1.5 seconds, position to 'start', and output to MP3.
Outcome
The episode now has a uniform silence at the beginning, streamlining the production workflow.
Background
A music producer is preparing stems for a mix and requires silence at the end of each track for alignment.
Problem
Tracks have varying endings, making it hard to sync in the DAW.
How to use
For each audio stem, add 2 seconds of silence at the end using the tool.
Outcome
All tracks end with consistent silence, facilitating easier mixing and arrangement.
You can upload audio files in formats like MP3, WAV, AAC, and others supported by the tool.
