    True silence is usually not an issue though, but there might be other reasons to record the silent room. Like getting the impulse response data, aligning the DC offset or getting the noise profile for noise reduction.

    In other words: It’s mostly used a reference rather than the explanation given in the post.

      Yeah, what this person is referring to is called “room tone”, it’s not silence.
