How to Split MP3 Audio into Multiple Tracks in Audacity

Показать описание

In this tutorial, you will learn How to Split an MP3 Audio into Multiple Tracks in Audacity which is a free open source audio recorder and editor. I’ve been using Audacity for a few years now and I mainly use it for editing my audio, but do sometimes use it to record voice-over. First, make sure to install the LAME MP3 Encoder in order to export your audio as an MP3. If you have the latest version of Audacity, you should be ok.

To split an MP3 into multiple tracks, follow these steps: (1) import your MP3 audio file using \File\Import; (2) press CTRL + B on your keyboard and it will create a separate track with labels; (3) type in the name of your label (for example, "Track 1"); (4) next, place your cursor at the next point where you want to create the second track, and press CTRL + B again. This will create a second label and you can name it "Track 2"; (5) continue this process until you finish naming the tracks.

Once you do the above, go to \File\Export Multiple; choose a folder to save the tracks; click Export; and then OK. This will automatically split the single MP3 into separate MP3 files. In a previous tutorial, I showed you How to Merge Multiple MP3 Audio Files into a Single MP3 Audio. Also, I’ve created several other Audacity tutorials on my YouTube channel and you will find a link below to the playlist.

Thank you Mr. Godinho.
I just wanted to add that in the latest version (that I downloaded yesterday), there is now a box you can check in the bottom left corner of the 'Edit Metadata' window. That allows you to not have to repeatedly click 'OK' for each new audio clip that you have created.

No shitty business. Just pure cut to cut information. Respect for you man.

Best video I found! Straight to the point, presentation easy to follow and it didn't take 15-20 minutes to give the information needed to get the job done.

Anthony's method is superb and helped me a lot. One little addition that I discovered along the way: If you want to split an audiobook of 15 hours in 10 minute chunks, speed and efficiency is of the essence. Do all splits first, and forget the naming of the labels. After you finished, the label track has 100 to 125 labels. Now just scroll to the first label, name or number it and use Tab to move to the next label, name that one, etc.

Wow! Unlike most of the "do it yourself" computer videos on YouTube, this one actually works like a charm. Brilliant! Thanks for your help!

Thank you! Finally someone who doesn't like the sound of his own voice to tell us about their mother's maiden name and other nonsense which does not contribute to anything significant. Thanks again for your to the point demonstration!
