The simplest split jobs should be the fastest

How to Split an Audio File Into Two Parts, or Any Number of Equal Parts

Split audio in half, into thirds, or into exact timed chunks in your browser. No server upload, ads, account, or watermark.

To split an audio file into two parts, open it in AudioMultiCut, click the point on the waveform where the split should happen, and export. You get two files, cut exactly where you chose, in under a minute. The whole thing runs in your browser: the file is never uploaded to AudioMultiCut servers, and the web editor is free with no ads and no account required.

The same editor handles the more structured version of this job: dividing a file into equal parts, either by fixed duration or by exact number of pieces.

Splitting at one exact point

Load the file and find your split point on the waveform. Zoom in if the moment matters, like the boundary between two songs or the start of a new speaker. Preview around the cut with the built-in playback, nudge the boundary until it is right, then export both parts as MP3 or WAV.

Because previews are instant, you can afford to be precise. There is no upload wait and no render queue between attempts.

Splitting into equal parts

Use Split into equal chunks when the output needs to be regular. You can ask for a fixed duration, such as 30-second or 10-minute chunks, or an exact count, such as 8 or 24 equal parts. AudioMultiCut computes the boundaries and creates every segment at once.

Equal chunks are the right tool for transcription services with file-length limits, review workflows where each person takes a slice, and any downstream system that expects a fixed number of files.

When the parts should not be equal

Most real recordings do not break at even intervals, and you do not have to pretend they do. Drag out as many segments as the content actually has, or let Auto-Cut detect the silences between songs, questions, or agenda items and propose the split points for you. Equal chunks are for machines; content-aware splits are for listeners.

FAQ

How do I split an audio file in half?

Open the file in AudioMultiCut, place the cut at the midpoint shown on the timeline, and export. If it must be mathematically exact, use Split into equal chunks and ask for two parts.

Can I split a file into a specific number of parts, like 8 or 24?

Yes. Split into equal chunks accepts either a chunk duration or an exact part count and generates all segments in one pass.

Is there a file length limit?

Processing happens on your own device, so the practical limit is your browser's memory rather than a server quota. Multi-hour recordings work on typical modern hardware.
