Trim M4A

1) Sign up for Descript for free. You’ll receive one free hour of transcription each month, and no credit card is required.

2) Upload your M4A file by simply dragging and dropping it into the project window. Descript will handle the rest.

3) After the transcription is complete, you can highlight and delete the parts of the transcript you want to trim by pressing backspace. Alternatively, you can directly trim the M4A file by opening the "Show Timeline" tab in the bottom left corner and selecting the sections to delete.

4) Once you’re satisfied with the edits, share your newly trimmed M4A file by clicking on the "Publish" button and then selecting "Export." You can also download it to your preferred location.
