Cut a WAV recording without replacing it

Choose the WAV passage

1. In Cut MP3, add the WAV file and choose Trim clip. The Cut MP3 workflow accepts supported audio formats, including WAV.
2. Set the start and end times. Use waveform zoom and boundary previews to refine the cut.
3. Apply trim, then select WAV in Output format.
4. Choose the output sample rate and channels, name the new file, and click Export Cut.

Choose settings for the next edit

WAV export is useful when the clip will go into another audio application. WAV and FLAC do not use the MP3 bitrate setting.

Match the sample rate and channels you need for your next project. A format conversion cannot restore detail that was missing from the source.

Listen to the exposed edges

A cut in the middle of a loud waveform can sound abrupt. Shift the boundary slightly or add a short fade if it suits the material, then check the exported WAV in your player.
