    Trim audio

    Drop the song or recording, mark the start and the end and download just the part you want. Nothing gets re-encoded, so the cut is instant — in the same format it went in.

    Processed in your browser — your files never leave your computer.

    How it works

    1. Drop your audio here

      Drag a .mp3, .wav or .m4a onto the dotted area, or click to choose. Up to 300 MB on a computer and 80 MB on a phone.

    2. Mark start and end

      Times go minutes:seconds, like 1:30. The end comes pre-filled with the file's duration — adjust the section and click "Trim audio".

    3. Download the section

      Done. The cut comes out instantly, in the same format, with "-cortado" in the name. Want another piece? Just click "Trim another".

    Frequently asked questions

    Does the cut land on the exact second I marked?

    Almost. The tool copies the section without re-encoding — that's why it's instant and lossless — and warns on screen that the cut can start up to ~2 seconds before the point you mark. In practice, for audio that slack is usually much smaller than for video, but the honest promise is this: close to the point, not down to the millisecond.

    Does the song lose quality when cut?

    No. Nothing is re-encoded: the section comes out exactly as it is in the original file. An .mp3 stays an .mp3, a .wav stays a .wav — same sound, just shorter.

    Can I use the cut as a ringtone?

    You can. Trim the chorus or the part you want and download it — the file comes out in the same format it went in, which is what most phones accept as a ringtone. Then just point the ringtone to the file in your device settings.

    Which formats are accepted?

    .mp3, .wav and .m4a — which covers downloaded music, voice recordings and iPhone audio. The section comes out in the same format it went in.

    What is the maximum file size?

    300 MB on a computer and 80 MB on a phone — to keep the browser from freezing, and the tool warns you before downloading anything. Audio rarely goes past that; if yours does, an installed app handles it better.

    Is my audio uploaded to a server?

    No. The cut happens inside your browser, on your device. The first time, the page downloads the conversion engine (~31 MB) — the engine comes to you, your audio never goes to it. After that it stays in your browser cache.
