Audio Cutter
This lesson is part of Web Developer Tools · All levels
Summary
The audio cutter cuts the beginning and end of the audio file so that only the desired range remains. You can see the waveform to determine the cutting point more precisely. Adding a short fade to the cutting point helps to avoid clicking. Cuts can be performed without re-encoding for specific formats, but additional processing usually requires rendering.
Key points
- Cutter picks the time frame and throws the rest away.
- Waveform helps to find the right cutting point
- A short fade prevents the sound of clicking at the beginning or end of the piece
- Unencoded pieces retain their original quality
- Save the original file before cutting so it can be repeated
