Moho is not an audio editor so you'll want to trim the audio file before bringing it into Moho. If you don't already have an audio editing program like Audition or Sound Forge, you might consider Audacity. It's free and it can handle almost any standard audio editing task.

If you need something more advanced, you'll probably have to pay for it. I use Audition for most editing tasks because it's easy to use and it's included in Adobe Cloud, but for cleaning, enhancing, and repairing audio I like to use Izotope's RX9 audio editor.

Technically speaking, you can trim audio in Moho by repositioning the section you want to trim to fall outside of the render range and then exporting that...but IMO, that's not a great workflow. Better to just load it into an actual audio program and do it right, and then import the trimmed audio to Moho.

In addition to the above advice - in Moho you can silence parts of an audio clip and fade in/out using volume & visibility keyframes - setting the volume (audio level) in the audio layer properties.
