iOS：如何从.aif录音的开头和结尾修剪沉默？

Question

My app includes the ability for the user to record a brief message; I'd like to trim off any silence (or, to be more precise, any audio whose volume falls below a given threshold) from the beginning and end of the recording.

I'm recording the audio with an AVAudioRecorder, and saving it to an .aif file. I've seen some mention elsewhere of methods by which I could have it wait to start recording until the audio level reaches a threshold; that'd get me halfway there, but won't help with trimming silence off the end.

If there's a simple way to do this, I'll be eternally grateful!

Thanks.

This project takes audio from the microphone, triggers on loud noise and untriggers when quiet. It also trims and fades in/fades out around the ends.

Relevant code you are seeking:

- (NSString *)recordedFilePath
{
    // Prepare output
    NSString *trimmedAudioFileBaseName = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"recordingConverted%x.caf", arc4random()];
    NSString *trimmedAudioFilePath = [NSTemporaryDirectory() stringByAppendingPathComponent:trimmedAudioFileBaseName];
    NSFileManager *fileManager = [NSFileManager defaultManager];
    if ([fileManager fileExistsAtPath:trimmedAudioFilePath]) {
        NSError *error;
        if ([fileManager removeItemAtPath:trimmedAudioFilePath error:&error] == NO) {
            NSLog(@"removeItemAtPath %@ error:%@", trimmedAudioFilePath, error);
        }
    }
    NSLog(@"Saving to %@", trimmedAudioFilePath);

    AVAsset *avAsset = [AVAsset assetWithURL:self.audioRecorder.url];
    NSArray *tracks = [avAsset tracksWithMediaType:AVMediaTypeAudio];
    AVAssetTrack *track = [tracks objectAtIndex:0];

    AVAssetExportSession *exportSession = [AVAssetExportSession
                                           exportSessionWithAsset:avAsset
                                           presetName:AVAssetExportPresetAppleM4A];

    // create trim time range
    CMTime startTime = CMTimeMake(self.recordingBeginTime*SAVING_SAMPLES_PER_SECOND, SAVING_SAMPLES_PER_SECOND);
    CMTimeRange exportTimeRange = CMTimeRangeFromTimeToTime(startTime, kCMTimePositiveInfinity);

    // create fade in time range
    CMTime startFadeInTime = startTime;
    CMTime endFadeInTime = CMTimeMake(self.recordingBeginTime*SAVING_SAMPLES_PER_SECOND + RISE_TRIGGER_INTERVALS*INTERVAL_SECONDS*SAVING_SAMPLES_PER_SECOND, SAVING_SAMPLES_PER_SECOND);
    CMTimeRange fadeInTimeRange = CMTimeRangeFromTimeToTime(startFadeInTime, endFadeInTime);

    // setup audio mix
    AVMutableAudioMix *exportAudioMix = [AVMutableAudioMix audioMix];
    AVMutableAudioMixInputParameters *exportAudioMixInputParameters =
    [AVMutableAudioMixInputParameters audioMixInputParametersWithTrack:track];

    [exportAudioMixInputParameters setVolumeRampFromStartVolume:0.0 toEndVolume:1.0
                                                      timeRange:fadeInTimeRange];
    exportAudioMix.inputParameters = [NSArray
                                      arrayWithObject:exportAudioMixInputParameters];

    exportSession.outputURL = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:trimmedAudioFilePath];
    exportSession.outputFileType = AVFileTypeAppleM4A;
    exportSession.timeRange = exportTimeRange;

    // MAKE THE EXPORT SYNCHRONOUS
    dispatch_semaphore_t semaphore = dispatch_semaphore_create(0);
    [exportSession exportAsynchronouslyWithCompletionHandler:^{
        dispatch_semaphore_signal(semaphore);
    }];
    dispatch_semaphore_wait(semaphore, DISPATCH_TIME_FOREVER);

    if (AVAssetExportSessionStatusCompleted == exportSession.status) {
        NSLog(@"AVAssetExportSessionStatusCompleted");
        return trimmedAudioFilePath;
    } else if (AVAssetExportSessionStatusFailed == exportSession.status) {
        // a failure may happen because of an event out of your control
        // for example, an interruption like a phone call comming in
        // make sure and handle this case appropriately
        NSLog(@"AVAssetExportSessionStatusFailed %@", exportSession.error.localizedDescription);
    } else {
        NSLog(@"Export Session Status: %d", exportSession.status);
    }
    return nil;
}

Without adequate buffering, that would truncate the start.

I don't know of an easy way. You would have to write a new audio file after recording and analyzing it for the desired start and end points. Modifying the existing file would be straightforward if you knew the AIFF format well (not many people do) and had an easy way to read the file's sample data.

The analysis stage is pretty easy for a basic implementation -- evaluate the average power of sample data, until your threshold is exceeded. Repeat in reverse for end.
