- Can I split an MP3 without re-encoding?
- Yes. When the output format matches the input (MP3 → MP3), the tool uses FFmpeg's stream copy mode (`-c copy`). There's no decoding or re-encoding, so the audio is bit-identical to the original and processing is near-instant.
- How do I split an MP3 album into separate tracks?
- Use Tracklist mode. Paste your tracklist in the format `timestamp Track Name` — one track per line. Each segment in the ZIP will be named after its track (e.g. `01-Intro.mp3`, `02-Chorus.mp3`). It accepts most common tracklist formats, including numbered lists and bracketed timestamps.
- What's the maximum MP3 file size?
- Up to 10 GB on paid plans. All processing happens locally on our server — nothing is uploaded to third parties. Files are deleted automatically after 24 hours (3 days for paid plans).
- Will the cuts be precise?
- Cuts land on the nearest MP3 frame boundary, typically within 20–30 ms. For music this is effectively seamless. For sample-accurate cuts, use WAV or FLAC output instead.
