I ripped a mixcloud stream using a great free MediaHuman app (Youtube to Mp3). I now need to rip the desired 6 minute song (in m4a format) from a 2 hour stream. The trouble is: I can't seem to find a decent app to do it.

I tried using a couple of online apps but the file was too large to upload, and I can't seem to find a decent app to use for my iMac anymore.

Do you know of an easy-to-use and/or free music trimmer/cutter app?

thanks

Audacity?

Spyware after v 3.0.3. Tenacity is the prevailing fork without telemetry. Needs work but works ok.

Really? The audacity on these guys!

If this was reddit, I would have given you a trophy.

Didn't they remove those?

Don't know, left it long ago.

That's an over-exaggeration - the telemetry in Audacity is literally just opt-in error reporting, and the server is self-hosted by the developer. Source

I thought that had been removed after everyone kicked up a fuss?

[–] ArcaneSlime@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 years ago

Not that I'm aware of but could be, I stopped using it when they added it.

thanks, I tried using Audacity but I got an 'incompatible plugin' error message.

Thats odd. What did the Internet say when you asked for help with that?

[–] Ecksell@lemmy.one 1 points 2 years ago

Another dead end of “help” eh? Ignore this person

Try converting to MP3 first if using Audacity: https://www.neowin.net/software/file-converter-universal-right-click-media-converter/
