I have recorded an audio mic track. I click on the track to select it. I click on the Strip Silence tool and the tool appears. I can change the values in the tool but the Applu button remains dimmed. I cannot apply the changes. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks

You say you click on the track, but you should click on the audio event. Is Apply still grayed out when you do that?

Thanks for the answer. I am a beginner and it is becoming obvious that I need a detailed reference book/tutorial for version 3. Can anyone recommend this? The videos on the PreSonus website and the product help aren't adequate. Thanks

I have the same problem so, the next question is, " What is an audio event?"

Same problem here.

Be great if folks took the extra second to explain how to do that one thing that noob's are missing.  Everything is a rabbit hole.

What I figured out from a YT video finally is that you have to use the splitting tool to section off an event, then you'll be able to apply strip silence.
