How to Cut a Song in TikTok and Get to the "Point"

 

You've probably seen these videos, in which explosive music sounds at the climax. The sound you insert into the clip determines how it will be perceived and how richly your idea will be presented. Of course, TikTok usually features the highlights of the songs, but sometimes you need to tweak them a little to achieve an explosive effect. Let's talk about how to trim a song in TikTok.

How to trim the beginning of a song in TikTok when editing a video?

So, you've decided which track to stick on the TikTok clip. What tools are there in order to cut it for yourself? I can suggest two ways to solve this question:

1. Built-in editor. TT is a social network created for the production of video content. It is quite logical that there are possibilities for editing and the simplest answer to the question "How in Tik Tok to cut music for yourself?" - use the capabilities of the social network itself. But this method is far from ideal. You can substitute a song at the right moment only before the start of shooting. After the video is shot, you can only select the ready-made cuts.
2. Third party tools. There are video editing applications and programs out there that will allow you to implement any venture, if you know how to use them. Naturally, substituting audio for the right moment will not be difficult. Also, if you like, you can simply trim the track in advance in the music instrument. But it will be much more convenient to do everything in only one application.

How to cut a segment out of a song?

Let's say you decided to just cut a fragment and then substitute it. You cannot do this on the social network itself. To do this, you will have to download music editing software. But you must understand that, most likely, you will not be able to upload the result to the social network - the audio base there exists solely on the fact that the copyright holders allow the use of their music.

What is in the base of a social network is not always useless.

 And there are still some possibilities for working with music. If you are wondering how to trim a song in TikTok, consider the functionality available for music in TT.

1. We open the application and log in. Unfortunately, nothing will work through a computer.
2. Click on the plus icon at the bottom of the screen.
3. Click on "Music" at the top to add a track.
4.  Choosing a song.
5. In the right vertical menu, select the "Trim" button.
6. Vertical lines will appear at the bottom of the screen. Move them to the right or left to select a section. After - click on the pink button with a checkmark.
7. That's all. If you have already shot a video and substituted the music, alas, you will not be able to drag the audio recording.

A selection of apps for trimming music

Although it will be most convenient to use a third-party editor, do not cut the song separately, but simply insert the desired fragment into the video. But let's say you use a song a lot and want to have the part you want at your disposal. You can use both sites and applications or programs.

I will only add sites and applications to the selection, because programs are usually quite cumbersome and contain many functions that are unlikely to be useful to us:

Mp3cut.net. One of the most popular sites. He is the first in the issue, and rightfully so. The service has many brothers for videos and so on. It is possible to extract sound from the video, make fading and smooth start, and so on. In general, of all the options I like this one the most. 

Inettools.net. Almost identical to the previous site, but you can cut out the excess part. Also, if the format of the result is fundamentally important to you, Inettools complements Mp3cut.

MP3 Cutter. Just trim files from your device memory. You can glue the two pieces together if you like. From here, you can immediately set a segment as a ringtone or notification. The translation, of course, leaves much to be desired, but in general everything is clear.

Music Editor. Everything is the same as in MP3 Cutter, but you can choose a format and there are no problems with translation - it simply does not exist. True, there is enough English and elementary here, so this is not a hindrance.

A big role in the perception of a video is played by what kind of music you put in and what fragment you choose. Therefore, if you are a blogger, it is important to be able to cut a track and edit clips. In this article, we talked about how you can work with music. So now you know a little more about the nuances of content creation.
