audio edit with text
Navigating interviews can be daunting, especially when it comes to editing audio. You can visualize sound using waveforms, but that doesn't always give you the full context. However, with Hindenburg's new audio editing feature, you can use text to get a better overview of your audio. This means you can select the text just as you would in a text document and watch as your edits are made in real-time. You can also cut out specific areas to make your interview stand out, and copy highlighted text to your clipboard.
But that's not all.
Text can also be used to add metadata to your show, making it easier to keep track of your content. You can use it for show notes or even transcribing your podcast. And if you need to export your text in a specific format, no problem. Hindenburg supports the most common text and transcription export formats.
Overall, Hindenburg's audio editing tool using text is a fantastic way to navigate through interviews with ease. So why not give it a try and see how it can take your editing to the next level?
