Trim audio by ear, not by guessing timestamps
The waveform shows where the loud and quiet parts are, so silence at the start of a voice note, applause at the end of a talk or the chorus of a song are easy to spot. Drag the start and end handles, press play to hear the selection and nudge them until it sounds right. A short fade in or fade out avoids a click at the cut and makes ringtones and alarm sounds feel finished.
It reads MP3, WAV, M4A, OGG, FLAC and the sound of MP4, MOV and WebM videos. The result is saved as MP3 at 192 kbps, which plays everywhere, or as WAV if you are going to keep editing it in another program.
Frequently asked questions
How do I cut an MP3 file for free?
Select the MP3, drag the handles on the waveform to the start and end of the part you want, press play to check it and click Cut audio. The trimmed MP3 downloads straight away, with no sign-up or watermark.
Can I make a ringtone with this audio cutter?
Yes. Pick about 20 to 30 seconds, add a short fade in and fade out, and save as MP3. Android phones use the MP3 directly. iPhone ringtones must be imported through GarageBand or a computer, which accept the MP3 as a starting point.
Can I trim audio on my phone?
Yes. The handles are large enough to drag with a finger, and the start and end times can also be fine-tuned with the step buttons. The result is saved to your downloads like any other file.
Does cutting reduce the audio quality?
Saving as WAV keeps the sound exactly as decoded. MP3 at 192 kbps is re-encoded and sounds the same to most listeners. The part you keep is not stretched or changed in any other way.
Is my audio uploaded to a server?
No. The file is decoded, cut and saved inside your browser on your own device, so voice notes and private recordings are never sent to us or stored anywhere.
