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

    Probably need to convert it to a lossless format first with another tool. Try reading up on VLC or ffmpeg format conversions. Extract the audio and convert it to wav. Then try to slice out the section you want with audacity. Once you have the trimmed section you can use VLC or ffmpeg to convert it to whatever audio format you want.
