24 alternatives to Vocal Slice – Cut audio by selecting text, fully on-device
I make audio tools, and this one came out of the clip-pulling loop: scrub to find the right line, set the in point, set the out point, name the file, repeat.

Our team is filled with technologists and creators, and when we record and edit videos, 80% of the time is spent chopping up the video, removing silences, and picking the right takes. So we decided to build a tool that did that for you — or at least get you there most of the way! Our initial implementation is somewhat naïve and uses a user configurable silence threshold that just reads in volume levels. In the future, we’d like to use a frequency-based approach that focuses on the human voice. We’re also open to ideas, so let us know if you have any!

Libretto.fm▲125Hi HN, I’ve been working on Libretto, a browser-based tool for editing long-form spoken content (podcasts, interviews, talking-head videos). You can think of it as a simpler, more focused alternative to Descript, optimized for editing long recordings faster. The motivation was pretty simple: editing spoken recordings still feels harder than it should be, and a lot of newer tools seem focused on short-form or AI-generated content.

Greetings HN! I built Voice Isolate to be the simplest way to enhance any speech recording. After hearing so many videos/podcasts with great content but poor audio I realized not everyone can or wants to invest in a pro mic / studio / editing software but figured something simple should be possible now using AI. There are products that do this like Descript or ElevenLabs but I find they’re overcomplicated for many use cases (full blown app designed for professional podcasters, use a convoluted credit system, etc.). As a solo dev I wasn’t sure this was possible to do well but I…
