Search and find retakes to improve audiobook editing workflow

Mathias Andersen

I'm using Descript til edit audiobooks. It's really helpful. I import a recording with all the error I made to edit them out. After each error I made I have a small pause which I can easily locate in Descript. 
One thing that would be really useful would be the ability to search for all the places where I read the same text up more than once (duplicates). 
This would make it so easy edit out retakes.

Select which parts of the AI editing to keep.

When I ask AI to eliminate retakes, a lot of what it's taking out is great. But I want to be able to select some text and have it be kept as originally recorded, without asking AI to do it all again.

Gabe Michalski: And its great! Unfortunately not for danish at the moment. It misses most of the retakes. Hope it will improve on that but great work!

There is a clicker hack on TikTok bc this is such a big problem with large projects. It would be so easy for Descript to simply underline text that is repeated so you could easily edit this material out.
