Can Cutora AI edit interviews, two speakers or multicam?
By Mohamed Mokbel, founder · Last updated:
Not well. Cutora AI is built for one person talking to camera. It does not tell speakers apart, it does not switch between two camera angles, and it does not line up a separate microphone recording with the video. This page answers 24 questions about interviews, guests and multicam, and says what to do instead.
Does Cutora work with two people talking?
Does Cutora work with two people on camera?
You can upload the file, but it is not what Cutora AI is built for. It is built for one person talking to camera, and it does not tell speakers apart: every voice is treated as one. invideo describes automatic speaker detection for its own multicam work (invideo FAQ, read 27 October 2026); Cutora's product facts do not say yet that it has this.
Will Cutora cut the guest's pauses as well as mine?
Yes, by the same rules. Cutora AI treats every voice as one, so a guest's pauses and repeated lines are cut the same way as yours. You cannot mark sections to protect before cutting, so review the guest's answers and restore any cut from the Edits list.
Can Cutora tell who is speaking?
No. Cutora AI does not tell speakers apart: every voice is treated as one.
Can Cutora edit an interview where both people talk over each other?
It can cut the file, but overlapping speech gets no special handling. Cutora AI treats every voice as one, so crosstalk is cut by the same rules as everything else. Listen to those parts and restore any cut you did not want from the Edits list.
Does Cutora cut crosstalk?
Not as a separate case: overlapping speech gets no special handling. The first cut works on pauses, false starts and repeated takes, with every voice treated as one.
Can I keep the interviewer's questions and cut only the answers' pauses?
Not automatically. Cutora AI does not tell speakers apart, and you cannot mark sections to protect before cutting. After the cut you can restore any single cut from the Edits list, so the interviewer's questions can be put back one by one.
How many different speakers can be identified in one audio track?
In Cutora AI, none: it does not tell speakers apart, and every voice is treated as one. We could not read Riverside's help page on speaker identification, so we give no figure for other tools. Check the vendor's own page for that number.
How do I remove a participant's entire track from a recording?
You cannot do this in Cutora AI. Each video file is transcribed from its own audio, and Cutora does not separate voices or work with per-participant tracks. We could not read Riverside's help page on removing a track, so use that product's own documentation for its steps.
Can Cutora handle multicam or separate audio?
Can AI edit a multicam interview or video podcast automatically?
Some tools can; Cutora AI cannot. invideo says AI can sync cameras, identify the active speaker and choose between angles, as a first pass that a human then reviews (invideo FAQ, read 27 October 2026). Cutora AI does not line up a second camera with the main video and has no multicam.
Can I upload two camera angles and have Cutora switch between them?
No. Cutora does not line up a second camera with the main video, and it has no angle switching. FireCut's blog describes a Premiere Pro and DaVinci Resolve plugin whose Multi-track feature switches between camera angles from the audio (FireCut blog, read 27 October 2026).
Can I use a separate audio recording from my mic with my camera video?
Not in Cutora AI. Each video file is transcribed from its own audio, and Cutora does not line up a separate microphone recording with the main video. Put the mic audio inside the video file first, in an editor that can sync them.
Does Cutora sync separate audio and video automatically?
No. Cutora does not line up a separate microphone recording or a second camera with the main video. Variable-frame-rate phone footage is converted to a constant rate with picture and sound kept aligned, but that concerns one file, not syncing two.
Can I upload my podcast camera file and the separate audio file together?
A project holds up to 2 files, but Cutora does not line up a separate microphone recording with the main video, and each video file is transcribed from its own audio. FireCut's blog says its plugin works with two video angles and two audio tracks, which you tag to cameras (FireCut blog, read 27 October 2026).
Does Cutora handle a two-camera setup with one wide and one close-up shot?
No. Cutora does not line up a second camera with the main video. If one person is talking, you can edit one angle alone in Cutora AI, then bring its cuts to your own editor to add the second angle.
Can I edit a three-camera podcast?
Not in Cutora AI: it has no multicam and does not line up cameras. It is built for one person talking to camera, recorded in one session.
Can Cutora handle Riverside's separate tracks?
No. Cutora does not line up a separate microphone recording or a second camera with the main video, and it does not work with per-participant tracks. Upload one video file with one person talking.
Can I do multicam editing like in Premiere?
Not in Cutora AI, which has no multicam. FireCut's blog calls the manual route in Premiere Pro creating a multicam sequence and tapping keys to switch angles (FireCut blog, read 27 October 2026). For multicam, use an editor made for it.
What can you do instead for interviews and podcasts?
Can I edit a Zoom or Teams recording?
You can if the recording is a file of an accepted type (MP4, M4V, MOV, WebM or MKV, up to 2 GB), but it is not an ideal fit. Cutora AI treats every voice as one and has no special handling for overlapping speech, so a call with several people gets the same cutting rules for all of them.
How do I edit a single-camera podcast?
Cut the dead air and repeated takes from the one file, then review. Cutora AI fits only if one person talks: it cuts long pauses, false starts and repeated takes, and treats every voice as one. For a two-person show, review each guest's cuts and restore what you need from the Edits list.
Can I edit a remote interview recorded as a split-screen video?
You can upload it as one file, but it is not what Cutora AI is built for. Both people are in one picture and one audio track, and every voice is treated as one. Overlapping speech gets no special handling.
Can I edit a panel discussion with four speakers?
It is not a good fit. Cutora AI does not tell speakers apart, treats every voice as one and gives overlapping speech no special handling, so four speakers would all be cut by the same rules. A person talking to camera is the case it is built for.
Can Cutora edit a debate where the pauses matter?
It is a poor fit. Pauses are cut without regard to who speaks, you cannot mark sections to protect before cutting, and overlapping speech gets no special handling. You would be restoring cuts one by one from the Edits list.
Can I edit a phone-call recording with no video?
Cutora's product facts do not list audio-only files. The accepted types are video files: MP4, M4V, MOV, WebM and MKV. It is also built for one person talking to camera, not for a call between two people.
Can I edit an interview with a translator speaking between answers?
It is not a good fit. Cutora AI treats every voice as one, so the translator's pauses are cut by the same rules. It is built and tested for English and Arabic, including Arabic mixed with English; other languages are not supported or tested.
