Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about the free online audio trimmer.
Choose a file, set the start and end times with the boxes or the waveform, then click Trim
and download WAV.
Yes. Your browser decodes the MP3 into raw samples, and the trimmed section is written out as
a WAV file.
Type the times into the start and end boxes, or click the waveform to place the start and
hold Shift to place the end.
Browsers can decode many formats but cannot encode MP3 or OGG, so the trimmed audio is
exported as uncompressed WAV.
No. The file is read locally with the File API and processed with the Web Audio API inside
your browser.
No. Trimming only copies existing samples, so the exported WAV keeps exactly the same quality
as the decoded source.
Yes, although very long files need more memory because the whole clip is decoded before the
cut is made.
Selections shorter than about two hundredths of a second are rejected, so keep the start
clearly before the end.
