Remove retakes automatically
When you say the same line more than once, CueClip finds the repeats and keeps the best take. Review the choices before you export.
What counts as a retake
A retake is a sentence you said, stumbled on, and then said again. CueClip compares the transcript and finds the repeated attempts, then removes the earlier ones and keeps the last, cleanest take.
- Click Remove Retakes in the tools on the right.
- CueClip highlights repeated attempts in the transcript and lists each one in the panel with its time and the words that repeat.
- Click Remove All to cut them, or work through the list one at a time. Dismiss any you want to keep with the ✕.
Make it more reliable: say a cue
If you say a short phrase out loud when you flub a line, CueClip knows exactly where the bad take ends. See Retake cue words.
Questions
Does it remove retakes in interviews?
It looks for the same speaker repeating the same content. Two people asking and answering different things are not treated as retakes.
It missed a retake.
Select the unwanted attempt in the transcript and delete it. For recordings with many retakes, use a spoken cue like “one more time” to mark them.
