6 years ago This may help speedup workflow.I looked into this a year ago and I think not:
- You already see the claps on the waveforms and the fastest way to edit them out is using the mouse trim tool, with which you don't need to move the time cursor at all.
- Blender has some audio analysis tools, but iirc they don't work straight from the sequence editor: it needs some raw audio files to process, then it outputs animation data. It's not trivial to design either as it'd probably take a few minutes to process your average sequence board, then it'd have to map audio analyses' results back to the strips
As someone who edits almost daily I feel it'd be one of these "cool but not very useful" features.
not sure how edge cases would be approached: audio that is either constantly loud or soft. Normalization I suppose.With compressed audio... there's no reliable way to do it. Playing with frequency ranges is the only option in Blender as there's no audio processing.
I at least won't implement this. That's too much work for something I don't see working well in the end. But if somebody else wants to they're welcome to try.

Feature proposal
Highlighting of "claps" and "significant" pauses. This would also make it trivial to jump between these markers via keyboard shortcuts. This may help speedup workflow.
Implementation for most cases should be trivial, but not sure how edge cases would be approached: audio that is either constantly loud or soft. Normalization I suppose.
