Eliminate gap between songs

[garrry4]

There is a five second gap after one of my song ends and another begins. How do I fix this?

Maybe the first one has five seconds of silence in the audio file after the music ends. If so, the best way to cure it is to open it in a wave editor like Cool Edit or Soundforge and delete the unwanted silence. Even better would be to combine both files into one so that PTE only has one audio file to load when its playing back the show. Cool Edit can be obtained from www.syntrillium.com . Other people may be able to recommend a freeware program that has similar functionality.

Thanks. Yes, it is exactly the gaps between the songs. Not noticable when you listen to the disk but when two slides go by in silence it's seems like an eternity.

I bookmarked the page but I would love to find some freeware too, or perhaps something in the neighborhood of $25. I don't need anything as sophisticated as cooledit appears to be.

A great little sound edit freeware program that I use can be downloaded at www.audacity.sourceforge.net.

Only a personal opinion...

I like Audacity, but I find Acoustica Mp3 Audio Mixer much more simple to use, and it allows a better control of fades.

You can download (1.60 MB) and try it freely (without limitations) at
