Frequently asked questions

Which audio formats can I upload?

Anything your browser can decode, which covers MP3, WAV, M4A, OGG, and most other common formats. If a file fails to load, it's likely an unusual codec your browser doesn't support decoding.

Should I export as WAV or MP3?

WAV is lossless and exact, but larger. MP3 is compressed and much smaller, which is usually fine for voice or casual listening. If you need the highest quality for further editing, use WAV.

Is there a length limit?

No hard limit, but trimming happens entirely in your browser's memory, so very long files (an hour or more) may be slow or use a lot of memory on some devices.

Is my audio uploaded anywhere?

No. Decoding, trimming, and exporting all happen locally in your browser. Nothing about your file is sent to a server.
