split-to-tracks

A CLI tool to split a single MP3 track into multiple tracks, complete with title and track number metadata.

Get started

1. Clone the repo

2. Build the Docker image

~ $ make build

3. Find an MP3 file that you want to split

~ $ ls -1 ~/Desktop
jungle-live-at-la-cigale.mp3

4. Create a text file that contains a track listing with titles and start times

# listings.txt
Intro 0:00
Platoon 1:35
Julia 6:46
Crumbler 11:11
The Heat 15:15
Smoking Pixels 19:45

Lemonade Lake 27:47
Son of a Gun 32:39
Lucky I Got What I Want 37:05

Busy Earnin 49:05
Time 56:54

5. Run split_to_tracks

~ $ ./split_to_tracks ~/Desktop/jungle-live-at-la-cigale.mp3 listings.txt

The output tracks will be in a directory in the same location as the MP3 file.

~ $ ls -1 ~/Desktop/jungle-live-at-la-cigale/
Accelerate.mp3
