The Subclip Editor is a web application, which segments audio files into subclips. The clips can be exported as a new audio entry, edited in external applications such as David's MultiTrack editor or published directly to Facebook, Twitter or a website by configuring the related workflows. Subclip Editor is supported on all three major browsers: Chrome, Edge and Firefox.
