Audio Trimmer

Cut a section out of an audio file, with optional fade in and out.

To trim audio, add your file and enter the start and end times. The selected section is extracted and encoded to MP3, with an optional one-second fade at each end so the clip does not begin or finish with an abrupt click.

Frequently asked questions

Why is the first run slow?

The FFmpeg WebAssembly core is about 30 MB and downloads once per session. After that it stays in the browser cache, and subsequent conversions start immediately.

Is my video uploaded anywhere?

No. FFmpeg runs inside your browser as WebAssembly, so the file is read from disk into memory and never sent to a server. That is also why there is no file size limit beyond your available RAM.

Why is it slower than desktop FFmpeg?

WebAssembly runs single-threaded here and cannot use your GPU, so encoding is typically several times slower than a native build. For a short clip that is fine; for a feature-length film, use desktop FFmpeg.
