Your Ultimate Ableton Strip Silencer
Removes all the silences from your session, in one click.
Faster than any script. Built for producers & engineers.
Web preview, the real app may look slightly different due to browser limitations.
Ableton’s support team has seen it
“Your plug-in sounds much more developed and usable… wishing you all the best for your release. 🏆”
Ableton support, after I shared StripSilencer with them
StripSilencer is independent and not affiliated with or endorsed by Ableton AG, but I reached out, they know the tool, and they encouraged me to share it.
How It Works
From launch to clean session
in under a minute
Connect to Ableton Live
Launch StripSilencer and connect to your running Ableton Live session via the built-in bridge. Setup takes under 30 seconds.
Set Your Threshold
Adjust the threshold in dB and the minimum duration in ms. Use Peak or RMS detection, or let the defaults handle it.
Hit Start
StripSilencer scans your tracks and mutes every silent region automatically. Non-destructive, your original clips are never modified.

Who It's For
Every Ableton workflow.
Mix prep & mastering
Your clients send you raw stems to mix or master in Ableton Live. Every file has dead air at the start and end, gaps between takes, silence between sections. StripSilencer handles all of it before you touch a single fader.
Start mixing, not cleaning.
Receiving stems from collaborators
You receive stems from collaborators, other producers, vocalists, session musicians, who aren't on Ableton. Their files are full of silence. Drop them in your session, run StripSilencer, done. No more cleaning up track by track before you can even start working.
Silence-free session in under a minute.
Bounce to track
You like bouncing all your instruments to audio before mixing, but that leaves huge blobs of silence across every track. StripSilencer cleans it all up automatically so your arrangement view stays clean and your session stays fast.
From messy bounce to clean session, instantly.
Features
Hit Start.
It handles the rest.
Lightning-Fast. Zero Rendering.
Pre-rendering is fine for 1 or 2 clips, but on a whole project, free .ablx extension scripts take forever. StripSilencer works instantly on both warped and unwarped clips, making it incredibly faster.
Powerful Batch Processing
Unlike scripts that only scan selected clips, StripSilencer runs batch processing across your entire session in one click, scanning tracks intelligently to detect what to cut.
Smart Defaults. Full Control.
Comes with Peak / RMS detection, threshold, min duration, pre/post rolls, and auto-detection of existing cuts. Works out of the box or fully customizable.
100% Local & Private
Runs entirely on your machine. Your audio is never uploaded to any server, it stays on your machine.
Non-Destructive
Your original audio files are never touched. All changes happen at the clip level in Ableton, fully reversible at any time.
Loop Brace & Grid Snap
Restrict the analysis by activating Ableton's loop brace. Separately, silence cuts can snap to your BPM grid to stay always in time.

What's Next
I'm just getting started.
Here's what's on the roadmap, I'd rather build this with you than surprise you later.
Native Live Extension (.ablx)
I'm porting StripSilencer to the new native Live Extension format coming in Live 12.4.5. Free update for all owners. (Note: The current Remote Script version remains fully compatible with Live 11.1+ Standard/Intro/Suite).
Hybrid Detection
A smart detection mode that blends Peak and RMS and adapts per stem automatically, transient-heavy drums and sustained vocals both get cut cleanly in one pass, without you touching a setting.
Something bigger is coming
StripSilencer is my first baby. But a full suite of utilities for producers & studio engineers working with Ableton is on its way, made to eliminate the repetitive work before you even press play. I'm taking my time to reveal what's next.
Stay in the loop.
Product updates, new features, and what I'm building next.
