Trim Music

1) Sign up for Descript for free. You get one free hour of transcription per month, and no credit card is required to get started.

2) Upload your music file to Descript by simply dragging and dropping it into the project window. The platform will handle the rest.

3) After the transcription is complete, you can highlight and delete the parts of the transcript you want to trim by hitting backspace. Alternatively, you can directly trim the music file by opening the "Show Timeline" tab in the bottom left corner and selecting the sections you wish to remove.

4) Once you're satisfied with the edits, share your newly trimmed music file by clicking on the "Publish" button and then selecting "Export." You can also download it to your desired location for easy access.
