Tech Tip for the Week - Editing in Descript Edition

Edit the words; the audio follows.

In Descript, your audio becomes text. You edit the words, and the audio edits itself.

Delete a sentence from the transcript, and it is gone from the audio. It works like editing a Google Doc. If you can fix a typo, you can edit a podcast.

That means no learning waveforms and no scrubbing back and forth to find every filler word.

This is the core of how Descript works, and everything else builds on it. Open your transcript and cut what does not belong. Best part is, it’s non-destructive… so you can always get it back if you made a mistake. CTR+Z or CMD+Z is your friend!
