The Alitu Audio Editor is changing (but don't worry)

Published about 2 months agoย โ€ขย 1 min read

Hey Podcasters!

It's Peter here, back with another update.

And, guess what... this is a big one ๐Ÿ”ฅ

The audio editor is levelling up โœจ

โ€‹

But don't worry. Everything will still work the same.

โ€‹

"Why are you changing it?" ๐Ÿ˜ญ

No one likes change. We get that. But we know this will be worth it.

Our new design will allow us to introduce new tools like splitting, adding silences, censoring bad words and more.

โ€‹

"When will you change it?" ๐Ÿ—“๏ธ

On 2nd of April.


"So what's new?" ๐Ÿ‘ถ

New filters for ums, ahs and silences

Alitu is now able to detect any disfluencies and dead air in your speech. Filters allow you to remove this type of audio automatically.

This means Alitu can help you make cuts and dramatically decrease editing time. And! You can restore or adjust those edits if we ever remove too much.

โ€‹

โ€‹

Full-screen transcript editor

If you prefer to make your broad edits in the transcript first, you can now expand it to cover your entire screen.

We've also made more space for it alongside the waveform. This means easier editing on laptops and more space on bigger screens.


"What's the same?" ๐Ÿ‘ด๐Ÿป

โ€‹

Make cuts as you normally would

Click and drag to remove a mistake. That stays the same.

โ€‹

Splitting works as before

Place your playhead in the right place and click "Split."

โ€‹

Export edited audio to Library like previously.

You can still click this button if you want to re-use your edited audio elsewhere.


In other News!

๐Ÿ”ฅ Would you Like your Recordings Edited FOR you?

We recently launched a limited trial of done-for-you editing, right inside Alitu. If you're interested in adding an editor to your team, so you can concentrate on the thing you do best - speak! - then check out the details below.

We can edit weekly or fortnightly shows, and we're trialling the service with a limited group over the next few months.

And that's all for today! We know change is hard, but we really hope the new editor will make your podcasting life easier in the long run. Plus, it gives us the space to add even more great tools to improve your podcasting in future.

And we are also here if you have any thoughts. Our team always wants to hear from you. Just click reply on this email to reach out to us.

๐Ÿ‘‹ See you next time,
