How to use it

  1. Open an audio file.
  2. Move the Start and End sliders, and press Play to check.
  3. Choose MP3 or WAV and download.

Good to know

WAV is lossless and larger. MP3 re-encodes the audio at 192 kbps, which is fine for nearly everything.

Ringtones on an iPhone must be under 40 seconds.

Making a clean cut

  • Look for a flat part of the waveform, where there is silence, and cut there to avoid a click.
  • The bright section of the waveform shows what will be kept.
  • Press Play selection and listen to both ends before downloading.
  • The sliders move in hundredths of a second. On a touch screen, use short movements.

Limits

The whole recording is loaded into memory, so files of several hours may fail on a phone. The tool keeps one section per run and has no fades. To remove the middle of a recording, you would need to cut the two parts separately and join them in an audio editor. MP4 video can be opened too, and only the sound is kept.

Questions

Can I cut the audio from a video?
