I used Strip Silence a couple of times, but forgot about it (because I usually use MIDI drums and bass, or record other things with headphones), and forgot there was an easy-to-remember key command ( ^X ). Thanks!
Thanks George gonna use this tip and the fade tool . question: would leaving the bleeds in effect the quality of the mix or is the tip with fade a standard audio edit?
This was more for illustrative purposes - the fact is, this is a live full band recording, so leaving the bleeds in won't necessarily affect the mix too much - however, if there was any phasing between the mics since the session was in a tight space with the propensity to introduce mic phasing, this would take care of that. Furthermore, in isolating those kicks, you can actually make a midi file from the audio and replace the kicks with better sounding kicks. So, really it is up to you for what your purposes are - I use strip silence for nearly every audio file I record, mostly to keep it very clean. Hope this info is helpful. Thanks for reaching out!!

Yeah - I sometimes forget things that Logic can do too! Then I’m like, oh yeah - that would be much easier to do it this way…. Then I forget again 😂
Very well done and well spoken. Just getting started with this type of thing so this is quite helpful.
Thanks!
My pleasure and happy to help! Lots more to come!
Very very hot and helpful tip ... I didn't know about this ... thanks a lot ... makes life a lot easier ☺
GREAT!! So glad this is helpful!!
WOW that's a cool function. I'll have to try that out with a drum mix when I've got a bit of time to mess around with it.🤘🤘🤘
Yeah - I find it really is a better option than a noise gate as you have far more control. Let me know about your progress!
awesome for a lot of different tasks
Yeah - I use it all the time. Really streamlines the process.
very cool.
Thanks!!

Very helpful , keeping the file clean is a pro move. Great idea with audio conversion to midi Thanx George all the best.
