Remove silence from start and end

[brancusi]

Hi,

Wondering if you have a technique for removing starting and ending silence when or after recording.

My current hack is to delay the start of the recording, but it's a tricky one since some people pause for quite a while after starting the recording.

Thank you,

This issue happens using recorderType:MediaStreamRecorder or StereoAudioRecorder?

Hi, here are the config:

const recorder = new RecordRTC(mediaStream, {type: 'audio'});

The repo is here: https://github.com/brancusi/wo-pinyin/blob/master/app/services/audio-recorder.js

It's definitely not a bug or anything, it's just human behavoir to pause after the recording starts, for just a moment. I guess my questions is more about post processing the sound, doing things like silence removal. Probably outside the scope of this project. Thought I would ask though.

Thanks
