Frequently asked questions
Can I cut a section out of the middle?
Yes. Choose Remove selection instead; the highlighted part is removed and the rest is joined with a 10 ms crossfade, so there is no click at the seam.
Does trimming lower the sound quality?
The audio is decoded and encoded again. WAV and FLAC are lossless; MP3, M4A and OGG add a small, usually inaudible loss, less at higher bitrates.
Which format is the result saved in?
With Keep original format when possible on, an MP3 stays MP3, a FLAC stays FLAC, and so on. Turn it off to pick MP3, M4A, OGG, WAV or FLAC yourself.
Exponential or linear fade?
Exponential sounds smoother to the ear; linear makes the change more noticeable. Fades can be up to 60 seconds.
Is my audio uploaded?
No. The file is decoded and saved in your browser and never leaves your device.
