Mixing and Mastering AITrim, fade and tidy the ends of a track.
Cut a section, add fades, and strip the silence from the start and end of a file without re-encoding the audio in between.
It is the small job that sits between a bounce and a delivery, and doing it badly leaves clicks at the edges or a gap of dead air before the music starts.
Key points
- Set an exact start and end, to the hundredth of a second.
- Fade in and fade out to avoid clicks at the edit points.
- Top-and-tail removes leading and trailing silence automatically.
- Free, with no token cost.
What it is good for
- Preparing a release. Remove the count-in, the silence and the tail from a bounce.
- Making an edit. Pull a clean 30 or 60 second section for social media or a sync submission.
- Fixing a click. A cut on a non-zero crossing pops; a short fade removes it.

Common questions
Does trimming re-encode my audio?
The audio between your cut points is left alone. Only the edges are touched, and only where you ask for a fade.
How much silence should I leave at the start of a master?
Very little. Most distributors prefer the music to begin almost immediately, with only a few hundred milliseconds of lead-in.
