Enabling this option will cause silence at the beginning of tracks to be discarded.
Sometimes CD tracks have some silence at the beginning that can be safely discarded.
Leaving the silence in does not hurt, but will make your audio files larger.
Enabling this option will cause silence at the end of tracks to be discarded.
Sometimes CD tracks have some silence at the end that can be safely discarded.
Leaving the silence in does not hurt, but will make your audio files larger.
Note:
This option cannot be used at the same time as one-pass extraction.
If you enable this option one-pass extraction will be disabled for you automatically.
Checking this option enables silence processing during the audio portion of a track.
This will force silence in the track to the zero or center level, which might be useful in some circumstances to remove background hiss from a noisy recording.
If you also check "Trim", the silence will actually be removed rather than just forced to the zero level.
This might be useful, for instance, for the "hidden tracks" found on some CDs which are music, followed by a long period of silence, and then more music.
Note:
This option cannot be used at the same time as one-pass extraction.
If you enable this option one-pass extraction will be disabled for you automatically.
This determines the threshold for what Riptastic! considers "silence."
If the audio data read from the CD is less than or equal to the threshold value, it is considered silence.
This allows you to fine tune the tolerance for what you consider to be inaudible silence.
You can specify the threshold value as either a percentage of the audio range (0 to 100%) or in audio sample units (0 to 32,768).
For mid-track silencing/trimming only, this value determines the minimum duration of silence that will be processed by the mid-track silence function.
Silences shorter than this will not be affected, while silences longer than this will be either silenced or trimmed (depending on whether you have the "Trim" option selected or not).
You can specify this duration in either milliseconds (0 to 2,268) or audio samples (0 to 99,999).
There are 44.1 audio samples per millisecond (44,100 samples per second).
The Silence Options may be shown or hidden via the View Menu.
