Which files can I cut?

You can use formats your browser can decode, commonly MP3, WAV, M4A, AAC, OGG and FLAC.

Is the audio uploaded?

No. The file is decoded and edited locally in your browser.

Does cutting change the original file?

No. The tool reads the source and creates a new WAV download.

What do fade in and fade out do?

They gradually raise or lower volume over the first and last half-second of the exported selection.

Does WAV export reduce quality?

WAV avoids another lossy compression pass, although the browser first decodes the original source.

Can I combine several clips?

Use Audio Joiner to arrange multiple files and add crossfades.
