True Silence vs. Ambience Sound

Recordings can sound unnatural when you insert true silence. This is particularly true for voice recordings and field recordings, where a natural background noise is often present. To produce more natural results, you can insert a file with ambience sound.

The file that you specify must have the same properties (stereo/mono, sample rate, etc.) as the file in which you want to insert the silence. The file can be any length. If the silence region is longer than the file, the file is looped.
