View Full Version : Recording part of a mp3 song khanme 08-02-2007, 09:06 Hi I want to use part of a mp3 file and want to know what software is available to allow me to crop parts of it and record the bits I need? thanks sugarcube 08-02-2007, 09:29 audacity (http://audacity.sourceforge.net/) khanme 08-02-2007, 10:27 thanks QUOTE=sugarcube;1931696]audacity (http://audacity.sourceforge.net/)[/QUOTE] Norbert 08-02-2007, 10:32 Audacity is a great free program, but I think if you use it then when you save the result, the mp3 will be re-encoded and quality will be lost. If quality of the result is important to you use a program that directly snips the mp3 file e.g. Mp3 Direct Cut http://mpesch3.de1.cc/mp3dc.html It's great for cutting songs you like out of podcasts and mp3 "mixtapes" Draggletail 08-02-2007, 12:03 Audacity is a great free program, but I think if you use it then when you save the result, the mp3 will be re-encoded and quality will be lost.
