Audacity Forum

Hi,

Just wanted to know, if I have an .MP3 file, and I used Audacity, to cut out a section, and save it. Will the quality of source and secondary files be exactly the same..?

Two problems.

-- Audacity will not Save a sound file. You have to Export to get a sound file.

-- Audacity will not edit a MP3 file. It converts the MP3 to a high quality internal format and then exports to a new MP3 when you're done. Each format change produces some damage.

There are a number of pure MP3 editors out there that can do simple editing and cutting without changing the music format or the damage level.
