Frequently asked questions
How precise can the trim be?+
For WAV and FLAC (uncompressed PCM), cuts are sample-accurate — you can trim to the exact millisecond. For MP3 and AAC (compressed), precision depends on the codec's frame size: MP3 frames are 26ms at 44.1 kHz, so lossless stream copy cuts snap to the nearest frame boundary. For exact millisecond MP3 cuts, the tool re-encodes the trim point frames.
Will trimming MP3 affect the audio quality?+
Stream copy trimming (at keyframe boundaries) is lossless — the original MP3 frames are preserved. Only the frames at the exact trim boundary are re-encoded if millisecond precision is required. The vast majority of the file is untouched.
Can I trim audio to use as a ringtone?+
Yes — trim to your desired length (most platforms accept up to 30 seconds for ringtones), export as MP3 or M4R (for iPhone). iOS requires the .m4r extension specifically — after trimming, convert to M4A and rename to .m4r, then sync via Finder.
