There are occasions when you may need to edit an MP3 track to make it shorter so it fits on your portable device, remove annoying commercials or join a few together.
MP3 Trimmer aims to help you do all of these and more via a fairly simple but powerful interface that doesn't take long to learn. The first thing to note is that when you open MP3 Trimmer, you're subjected to a 15 second wait while the program prompts you to register. Hiding the window doesn't help either so you've just got to put-up with it.
Once open, the interface requires you to load an MP3 track. If the audio track had a varying bitrate, MP3 Trimmer will warn you although it offers no help in equalizing it. On the left panel you can mark the in-point and on the right, the out-point. You can preview the 5 seconds preceding each point with the "Try" button to fine tune your editing. There are a few other boxes which you can check to edit your track such as adding an auto-fade and keeping the ID3 tag. There are also a few preferences which allow you to configure how your files are named and whether to check for the bitrate .
MP3 Trimmer is a very accomplished and professional feeling app which will cater to just about any basic MP3 editing need.
