What is Audio Cutter?
Audio Cutter allows you to trim, crop, and split audio tracks directly within your browser with sample-accurate precision. After uploading an MP3, WAV, or AAC audio file, an interactive visual waveform displays your track amplitude. You can play back the recording, drag start and end time sliders, or capture the current playhead position to isolate exact vocal segments, sound effects, or song intros. Select between MP3 or WAV output formats, process the trimmed clip in browser memory without server uploads, and download your edited sound file immediately.
How to Use Audio Cutter in 4 Easy Steps
Step 1
Click the upload box or drag and drop your audio file (MP3, WAV, AAC, etc.) into the editor.
Step 2
Use the waveform display and audio playback controls to preview your track and identify trim points.
Step 3
Adjust the Start Time and End Time sliders, or click "Set to current position" to lock exact timestamps.
Step 4
Choose MP3 or WAV output format, click "Cut Audio", and download your trimmed audio file.
