Dynamic Split

Going to assume you know D for dynamic split. When working with 0.2-1s clips make sure to uncheck "At Transients", start with "Threshold" at 0db and keep working your way to - infinity until you see the silence spaces you want removed

  1. Highlight the clips you want to make regions for
  2. Actions > Markers: Insert seperate regions for each selected item

Install Package

  1. In the DAW Extensions > RePack > Browse Packages

  5. You may be asked to install other packages (GUI, etc.)
