6
Chunk length — shown at the bottom of every chunk.
7
Export Chunks — cuts the original file and saves every chunk.

Status — how many chunks were exported, and where.

Step 1

Load the sound

Drop an audio or video file on the timeline, or click Browse then Load. The duration, sample rate and format appear under the path, and the waveform fills the timeline.

Sound Chunker right after loading: the full waveform of the song — The whole sound, ready to be cut.

Step 2

Place the cuts

Double-click the timeline where a chunk should end, or click to move the playhead and press Add Chunk at Cursor. Every chunk shows its length; the counter says how many chunks and markers you have.

Three cut markers on the waveform and the length of each chunk — Three markers, four chunks.

Step 3

Listen

Click anywhere on the timeline to put the playhead there, then Play. Stop goes back to where playback started, so you can check a cut again and again.

Step 4

Export

Choose WAV or MP3 and click Export Chunks. Each chunk is cut from the original file, so nothing is lost; the files go to chunks next to the source unless you pick another folder.
