Anyone know a good, free, easy to use WAV file editor for OSX? (Or an mp3 editor, I can convert it).
I’ve got this sound file I wanna post – an inadvertent voice mail – but it’s ten minutes long, with a lot of dead air. I need to chop the gaps out, and take out the bits that identify who it is. It’s a wrong number, but still.
But I can’t find anything that’s worth a damn that’s free. Such a beast has to exist. I tried ‘Wave Editor” but had nothing but trouble with it, it wrote out a horrible-sounding file and then started crashing. I don’t need anything sophisticated, just something that will let me chop out the gaps.
Can’t help you a bit! Not with that. LOL. But it sounds like you are upto trouble. Can’t wait to hear what you manage to pull out of a hat. Love trouble.
Um…Garage Band, maybe? Or try iMovie and edit the soundtrack? Dunno if that’s a possibility or not.
I hit VersionTracker and came up empty-handed.
Hey man, check out Audacity (http://audacity.sourceforge.net/about/). Free, open source WAV/OGG/MP3 editor for OS X. I’ve tinkered with the Win version and it’s not half bad. Should be suitable to your needs.
