Tools/Silence Remover/Twitch Streamers
Auto-remove silent gaps from podcasts and recordings.
Stream audio fights with chat-to-speech, alerts, music beds, and game audio for the same headroom. Pre-processing your alert sounds, music, and saved clips so they all hit the same loudness keeps your mix predictable. And on Twitch, where listeners can drop in mid-stream, consistent levels matter more than perfect dynamics.
For twitch streamers and live broadcasters, the typical workflow is: Capture → trim → normalize → load into OBS. The Silence Remover fits in that chain by handling auto-remove silent gaps from podcasts and recordings.. without leaving the browser, without uploading the file, and without a watermark.
| Setting | Recommended | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Loudness target | -16 LUFS | Sits well alongside Twitch's stream audio mix |
| Format | MP3 192 kbps | OBS-friendly, small files, no quality loss audible at stream bitrates |
| Music beds | -12 to -18 dB below voice | Keeps chat audible over background music |
Match your alert sounds to your stream's average voice level. Typically around -16 to -14 LUFS. Music beds should sit 12-18 dB below your voice so the chat can hear you over the bed.
MP3 is fine for alert sounds and music. Saves disk space and OBS handles them identically. Use WAV only if you're doing real-time audio routing with low-latency requirements.
