Request for an mp3 file editor

Zapho · 15-02-2007 5:17pm #1

I'm looking for a decent mp3 editor that will cut out the silence at the beginning and end of files and possibly do them in a batch rather than having to set every one of them.

Audacity might work, not sure if it does them in batch or not as I have done it only with one or two files.

I've used Audacity alright, but I don't know if it has batch either. It'd be a pain to go through my music collection and manually edit all of them!

Yes Audacity is open source, so its free.

EDIT: Sorry, did you mean am I looking for free software?
Not really, anything will do.

As far as I know, Itunes can start the mp3 at the point where you want it to

Right click on the song in Itunes
Click on the options
There is an option to choose the start time

This wont do it in bulk, but you can do it much faster

Edit: sorry, click on get info, then click on the options tab

If your talking about taking out the gaps in an album where there shouldnt be any , i.e. the original album had no gaps and all the songs ran in to each other , then the latest itunes can do this automatically for you , in itunes its called gapless playback and it autodetects the albums where this should be the case.
