Trimming an audio file

Your file is decoded with the browser's built-in Web Audio API and its waveform is drawn on screen, so you can spot quiet gaps and loud passages before cutting. Drag the start and end handles, sweep across the wave to select a new range, or type exact times to the hundredth of a second, then play just the selection to check it. Add a one-second fade in or fade out for a smooth start and finish – great for ringtones, podcast clips, voice memos and samples. Save the result as a 192 kbps MP3 for small files or a lossless WAV for more editing. Decoding, trimming and encoding all happen on your device, so recordings are never uploaded, long files don't wait on slow internet, and there are no limits or sign-ups.
