New Member - First Question - Sound Files (Editing)


Recommended Posts

Hi Everyone

I purchased P2E at the weekend and built my first slideshow. Wife was amazed at my first attempt (which must be a good sign, because she is normally hard to please and is not a big fan of computers !!!) and insisted I burnt the show to DVD (used Nero for that) to show her parents.

My fist show had one MP3 file as background music. What I want to do now is have two or three MP3 music tracks in the show, but only use 1 or 2 minutes from each ripped file from my music CD e.g play middle 90 seconds of first song fade into 2 mins from next song fade into 60 seconds of third song etc.

I expect that I will have to manipulate the MP3 tracks in a music editor befor adding the new files into P2E.

Can any member reccomend an MP3 / WAV file editor (open source / freeware preferred) that will do the trick. I was following a thread that mentioned Audacity, will that do the trick or are there any others out there?

Thanks in anticipation of your help. :D

Regards, Phil , Nottingham, UK

there are quite a few members that use the free audacity, so you will quite likely get good advice if you run into problems

I use Audition v2 which is excellent but "over the top" if all you need is a basic sound editor for slideshows. Audacity is free and well-supported too. Try it and if you need help getting started contact me & I'll be glad to help you on your way.
