Add pauses in speech and silence periods between audio clips
Last updated September 18, 2024
Introduce pauses in speech within a paragraph
Use syntax <break time="1.5s" /> to add pauses within a paragraph. The specified pause duration can be between 0 and 3 seconds in length.
For example, if you want to hear "Breathe in. (1 second pause) Breathe out.", write down the following script before generating the audio for speech :
Breathe in. <break time="1s" /> Breathe out.
Introduce silence periods between two audio clips
Click to select the later clip(s), and drag it back. For instance, a ~1 second pause has been introduced here.
Introduce consistent silence periods between many audio clips
- Multi-select all audio clips of interest.
- Then click to select the End pause button in the top left corner of the timeline editor.
- Adjust the duration of the End pauses to 0.5s, for example, which would introduce a consistent 0.5s pause at the end of each selected audio clip, as shown below.
