Audio Splitter

Play the file, mark where each new clip should start, and export every part at once in a single ZIP download.

How to use the Audio Splitter

  1. Add your audioDrop a file onto the page or tap to browse — or press “try a built-in sample” to explore first. Nothing is uploaded; the file is decoded on your device.
  2. Add split pointsPlay to the right spot and press Add split at playhead; or click Find silent gaps; or set a fixed interval such as every 5 minutes.
  3. Split and previewPress Split into parts. Each part appears in a list with its own ▶ preview button.
  4. Download the ZIPChoose MP3 or WAV and download every part in one ZIP file.

About the Audio Splitter

The Audio Splitter divides one long recording into several files. Use it for a recorded show you want as separate tracks, a lecture split into topics, a podcast broken into segments, or a long voice note cut into pieces small enough to email or upload.

You decide where the cuts go: place markers by ear while the audio plays, let the tool detect silent gaps between songs or topics, or ask for equal-length parts. Every part is previewable before you download, and all of them arrive together as a ZIP.

How the Audio Splitter works

Markers are stored as times; on Apply the buffer is sliced between consecutive markers and each slice gets a 1 ms edge fade to avoid pops. The “Find silent gaps” option runs a 10 ms-resolution RMS detector with 3 dB hysteresis (so brief dips in a note do not count) and puts a split in the middle of every gap of at least 0.5 s below −42 dBFS.

All parts are encoded separately in your chosen format and packed with the store (uncompressed) ZIP method — MP3 and WAV barely compress, so this is quick and the ZIP is the same size as the files.

What people use it for

Live recordings & vinyl rips

Split a continuous capture into one file per song.

Lectures & webinars

Make a file per topic so students can jump to what they need.

Upload limits

Break a long file into chunks under a size limit.

Audiobook chapters

Divide a long narration at the chapter breaks.

Tips for the best results

  • Start with Find silent gaps, then delete or add markers by hand — it is faster than placing everything manually.
  • Hover or tap a marker chip’s ✕ to remove a wrong split.
  • Name your source file well: parts are called name-part-01, -02 and so on.
  • If a song has a long quiet intro, the detector may split it; remove that marker.

Common problems & fixes

No gaps were foundSilence detection needs real quiet. For continuous mixes add markers by hand or use an even interval.
Too many splitsRemove some marker chips, or raise the minimum pause by splitting evenly instead.
The ZIP is slow to buildLong parts at high bitrates take a moment to encode; WAV is fastest.

Frequently asked questions

Can I split without losing quality?

Splitting itself is lossless. Choose WAV to avoid any re-encode, or MP3 at 256–320 kbps for near-transparent copies.

How many parts can I make?

As many as you have markers — hundreds work fine.

Does it work on a phone?

Yes; tap the waveform to place the playhead, then add a split.

How many parts can I split a file into?

As many as you like — add as many split points as you need before exporting.

Why do I get a ZIP file instead of separate downloads?

Browsers often block multiple automatic downloads at once, so all parts are bundled into a single ZIP for a reliable, one-click download.

Can I remove a split point?

Yes — tap the × on any marker chip before exporting.
