What is Room Tone?
The background sound of a recording space with no one speaking, recorded to fill gaps smoothly in an edit.
Every room has its own subtle hum and ambience. When editors remove words or pauses, inserting room tone keeps the background continuous instead of dropping to unnatural silence.
Recording thirty seconds of room tone at each location is a standard production habit.
