Filler Sound Detection v1
After 4 years of research and training, Filler Sound Detection V1 is here!
This new machine learning model has reached nearly a 90% acceptance rate among test users (the percent of edits users accept).
Translation? Filler Sound Detection is insanely accurate.
You can expect less false alerts, more precise boundaries, and the model is smart enough to even leave in some ums that it anticipates you'll want to keep (gotta stay authentic, right?).
90% is extremely high, but this doesn’t tell the whole story.
We’ve reached a level so accurate that even pro audio engineers cannot consistently agree on how to properly edit the last 10% of edits.
Next, we’ll add a feature that cuts all the accurate edits automatically so you just have to review the harder 10%. It will be MUCH faster.
New Fullscreen Editor
New Fullscreen Editor
You can now enjoy a new fullscreen editing experience in Resound!
The new editor opens projects in a full page. Go back to the dashboard to see all your projects by clicking the back arrow in the top left corner.
Click the Sidebar icon in the top right corner to show or hide the new sidebar. This is where you can enhance, change settings, and export.
We have a lot more planned for the editor, so stay tuned!
Resound API for Businesses (beta)

The API is currently only available to Enterprise customers.
Small Updates and Bug Fixes
Silence Detection Sensitivity
We increased the sensitivity of silence detection to recommend more cuts.
Secret Shortcut: 7 Remaining Edits
Strop scrolling through the waveform and just click “7 edits remaining” to instantly jump to the next unreviewed edit.
Playhead doesn’t remember my last place (bug)
The playhead was jumping back to 0:00. It now stays in place if you reopen a project, change settings, or switch tracks.
Keyboard shortcuts (bug)
Under some limited circumstances, keyboard shortcuts stopped working. This has been resolved.
Resound is changing three things about it’s plans and pricing...
1. The free plan is changing on February 1
The updated plan will include:
  • ✅ 20 mins AI processing per month
  • ✅ Filler sound detection, silence detection, trim audio
  • ✅ 1 track per project
  • ✅ 1 day project storage
  • ✅ MP3 exports
  • ❌ WAV, AAF, MP4 exports
  • ❌ Enhance
2. A new 14-day FREE trial is being built
New users will be able to try all of our features, plus 10 hours of AI processing time for 14 days! This will be available soon on our Pricing page.
3. New way to buy AI processing time (coming soon)
We’re building a new way to buy AI time without subscribing to a plan. I can’t share the details yet, but be on the lookout for another email soon!
We cover when, why, what you need to do, and more in the post below.
Thanks for helping us fulfill the mission to automate podcast production!
Export MP4 video beta
You can now export an edited mp4 file from Resound!
Here are a few things you need to know...
  1. This is an experimental beta feature, so we anticipate bugs. Please share feedback here or open a chat in the app.
  2. You will only see the option to export .mp4 if you upload an mp4 video file. We do not currently support video exports for any other video formats.
  3. Video files are much larger than audio, so exporting takes longer. Feel free to start an export, close the app, and we will email you when your download is ready.
  4. Silent videos cannot be edited in Resound. There must be audio in your mp4 file for uploading to work.
Bug fixes and improvements
We’ve also been making a lot of improvements to the app! We dedicated the week of Thanksgiving to fixing bugs and have made several other improvements since then.
Bugs Fixed:
  • Exports were downloading blank ZIP files the first time you tried to export them.
  • Files with commas or apostrophes were exporting without the suffix (ex: .mp3 or .wav), which meant you could not open them and listen.
  • Files longer than 1.5-2 hours were failing to process due to a timeout error. The enhance icon and Enhance toast occasionally did not show the right message when they finished processing.
  • Projects with long file names were failing to Enhance (the button did not show up).
  • When downgrading your plan, the app was saying false information about what features you would lose. Editor setting was appearing behind the “waveform is loading” screen.
Nov 20 2023 release notes gif
It’s not the sexiest feature. It’s not even the hardest to build....
But if you’re a startup you have to make hard trade-offs.
Sometimes your wants get pushed back by your musts.
And so today, after 12 months of hearing you ask for this time and time and time and time again, it’s here.
You can now see the status of uploads with a progress bar.
It may look like a tiny feature, but we solved it in a big way.
In fact, we completely redesigned the uploading experience...
🔄 New upload experience (progress bar and bulk uploads)‍
Upload progress bar
We overhauled the uploading and processing experience in Resound. The new project card shows a progress bar, you can do bulk uploads, you can keep working on other tasks in Resound while new projects upload in the background, and more.
⬇️ Export projects in the background while you work
Background exports
You can now export projects in the background while doing other tasks in Resound, get an email when an export is ready to download (or easily opt out), and download your most recent export faster in a single click.
✅ Filler Sound Detection V0.7.1
Filler Sound v0
When we released V0.7 about a month ago it was our most accurate model to-date, but it also was much slower, which was causing some of our users to have projects fail. We optimized the model to be 4x faster which resolved any bugs related to projects failing. You can now enjoy all the new accuracy without the bugginess.

🖇️ The big small stuff…
Uploading, processing, and enhancing is far more reliable. Fixed a bug where Enhance failed due to long file names. Fixed bug causing app to get stuck loading waveforms. You can now delete your account in settings anytime (but plz don’t!).
Sometimes you don’t need automated editing. You just want to make your own edits.
You might want to trim out:
  • 🎨 Creative edits
  • 🙈 Sensitive content
  • 🤪 False starts and bloopers
  • 🙋Guest-requested edits
  • 🫠 Mid-episode meltdowns
  • 🎹 Sections of music
Whatever your reason, Resound now lets YOU trim audio in a few simple clicks. How does it work? Just right-click your mouse on the waveform and adjust your edits. It’s that easy.‍
Filler Sound Detection v0
Get even more accurate edits with latest (and smartest) Filler Sound Detection model. The number of missed edits has been improved by 70%, and false alerts, like marking the word “of” as a filler sound, have been decreased by 38%. We think you’re going to love it.
Mixing and mastering your podcast audio is HARD work. That’s probably why you’re reading this in the first place.
In the past, removing background noise, balancing the volume of speakers, removing unwanted frequencies, and achieving a professional sound for your podcast meant you needed to learn audio production from the ground up. You needed to get a Digital Audio Workstation (DAW), and learn how to use plugins like equalizers, compressors, spectrograms, and more.
It was a LOT of work.
But now there’s an easier way: Automatically mix and master your podcast in Resound in minutes, using AI.
One more update: If you’re editing a multitrack project, Resound now exports a merged file by default. But if you want to export individual edited tracks you can still do that by clicking “export individual tracks” on the export modal.
Enhance is temporarily free but will be a paid feature in the future. Try it for free today!
It doesn’t matter if you’re recording a 3-hour interview or a bite-sized monologue.
In the world of podcasting...
Pace.
Is.
Everything.
The bad news:
Fine-tuning the pace of your audio is boring and takes forever.
The good news:
You can automatically find boring silences and tweak the pace of your podcast in seconds with Resound.
Automatically detect silence in your audio in seconds.
Silence Detection
Identify all silences longer than 3 seconds that might bore your listeners.
Remove silence while keeping a natural pace.
Remove Silences
Resound leaves 1 second of padding whenever it detects silence so that you don’t strip out the human element of pace.
Cut them all in a click or review one-by-one.
Cut all in one click
Only cut the silences that bother you, and leave the rest. You’re in control.
