ComfyUI Node: Audio Trim

Audio Trim:

SaltAudioTrim is a powerful node designed to help you precisely trim audio files to your desired length. This node is particularly useful when you need to extract specific segments from a longer audio file, such as isolating a particular sound or removing unwanted sections. By specifying the start and end times, you can easily cut out the exact portion of the audio you need, making it an essential tool for audio editing and processing tasks. Whether you're working on a music project, podcast, or any other audio-related endeavor, SaltAudioTrim provides a straightforward and efficient way to manage your audio content.

Audio Trim Input Parameters:

audio

This parameter accepts the audio file you wish to trim. The audio should be in a format that the node can process, typically a WAV file. The audio file serves as the source from which the specified segment will be extracted.

start_time_seconds

This parameter specifies the starting point of the audio segment you want to extract, measured in seconds. It must be a floating-point number with a minimum value of 0.0, a default value of 0.0, and can be adjusted in steps of 0.01 seconds. Setting this parameter allows you to define the exact moment in the audio file where the trimming should begin.

end_time_seconds

This parameter defines the ending point of the audio segment you want to extract, measured in seconds. It must be a floating-point number with a minimum value of 0.0 and can be adjusted in steps of 0.01 seconds. By setting this parameter, you determine the precise moment in the audio file where the trimming should stop.

Audio Trim Output Parameters:

audio

The output is the trimmed audio segment, which is extracted based on the specified start and end times. This trimmed audio retains the original quality and format, providing you with a precise and clean segment ready for further use or processing.

Audio Trim Usage Tips:

• Ensure that the start_time_seconds and end_time_seconds parameters are set correctly to avoid trimming out unintended parts of the audio.
• Use small step values (e.g., 0.01 seconds) for precise trimming, especially when dealing with short or detailed audio segments.
• Preview the audio before and after trimming to confirm that the desired segment has been accurately extracted.

Audio Trim Common Errors and Solutions:

"Invalid start or end time"

• Explanation: This error occurs when the specified start or end time is outside the duration of the audio file.
• Solution: Verify that the start_time_seconds and end_time_seconds parameters are within the bounds of the audio file's total length.

"Audio file format not supported"

• Explanation: This error indicates that the provided audio file is in a format that the node cannot process.
• Solution: Ensure that the audio file is in a supported format, such as WAV, before using the node.

"End time must be greater than start time"

• Explanation: This error occurs when the end_time_seconds parameter is set to a value less than or equal to the start_time_seconds parameter.
• Solution: Adjust the end_time_seconds parameter to be greater than the start_time_seconds parameter to define a valid trimming range.
