Premiere Pro speech cleanup
Remove silence and speech mistakes in Premiere Pro
SmartTrim finds silence, filler words, stutters and repeated phrases directly in the editing workflow, then lets you mark, cut or export the result with control over detection thresholds.
What is SmartTrim?
SmartTrim is a Premiere Pro silence-removal plugin that detects pauses using adjustable duration and dB thresholds. It can also identify filler words, stutters and repeated phrases, place markers without cutting, apply edits, or export a cut list. Markers-only mode leaves the timeline untouched, while automatic-cut mode applies the selected changes.
