Can I globally remove "um"

Question

I am VERY new to Premiere Pro. I have watch several tutorials, but I can't find an answer to this.

I have a clip where the speaker says "um" a lot. Is there a way to globally remove them? I see where one can remove background noise, but this is in the dialogue.

Please be specific. I don't know what I am doing.

@handygal,

Look at the help page that @Sumeet Kumar Choubey points to. It shows you how to use text-based editing and filtering to bulk delete various things. "Ums" are "Filler Words."

What that guide does not say is that you CANNOT do this in a source clip itself. It must be in a sequence, and it is only in the sequence version of the transcript that the Ums will be removed.

If you filter on Filler Words, and the Delete button is greyed out, you are probably in Source Monitor view of the transcript.
