Frequently asked questions

Does cutting an MP3 lower the quality?
No. The part you keep is copied exactly as it was in the original file, so it sounds the same and stays the same size per second.
How do I make a ringtone from a song?
Pick the best 20 to 30 seconds and cut them. Android phones can use the MP3 straight away. iPhone ringtones must be 40 seconds or less and need to be added through your computer or the GarageBand app.
Can I add a fade in or fade out?
Yes. Choose a fade and save your selection as a WAV file. Fades change the sound itself, so they're offered on WAV, which keeps full quality.
Can I cut other audio files, like WAV or M4A?
Yes, if your browser can play them. You can cut any of these and save the part you want as a WAV file.
Why does the very start of my cut sound slightly early?
The cut starts at most a fraction of a second before the point you chose, so the first note isn't clipped.
Is my file uploaded?
No. Your audio is opened and cut on your device. Nothing is uploaded, so it's safe for private recordings.
