An example track. Pick a tool to see what it does.

Six tools, one window.

Each tool has its own tab. Drop a file or paste a link onto any of them and it gets to work.

  • Convert

    Paste YouTube or Bilibili links, or drop audio and video files, and save them as MP3, WAV, FLAC or M4A.

    • Paste several links at once, one per line.
    • Keep only part of a video by setting a start and end time.
    • Choose the quality before you save.

  • Vocals

    Split a song into two files: the vocals, and everything else. Take out all the vocals for a backing track, or only the lead singer so the harmonies stay in.

    • Both parts are saved as 320 kbps MP3s.
    • Uses Mel-Band RoFormer, one of the cleanest vocal separation models available.

  • Key & BPM

    Drop a track or paste a link to see its tempo and musical key. Useful for learning a song, building a set, or checking a sample fits.

  • Edit

    Open a track, drag across the waveform to select part of it, and listen before you change anything.

    • Trim to the part you want.
    • Fade in and out, with straight or curved fades.
    • Remove silences, with control over how quiet counts as silent.
    • Mix stereo to mono, keep one side, or swap left and right.
    • Speed up or slow down without changing the pitch, by percentage or to a target BPM.
    • Undo any step, then save as MP3 or 24-bit WAV.

  • Join

    Add as many files as you like, drag them into order, and save them as one. Put nothing between them, a gap of silence, or a crossfade.

  • Metronome

    Set a tempo or tap it in, choose the beats per bar, and press the space bar to start and stop.

Your files stay on your Mac.

Everything runs on your computer

Editing, vocal splitting and key detection all happen on your Mac. Nothing is uploaded anywhere.

Online only when you need it

PocketEdits connects to the internet to fetch links you paste, and to download each vocal model the first time you use it.
