Title: Removing Silence In A MP3
Post by: KingSparta on February 01, 2009, 09:52:43 am
Is There A Way Using MC Or Re-Encoding That Will Remove Silence In A MP3?

Or Is There Another Program That Will Do This?

Are you talking other than editing the MP3 to trim silence at the beginning or end of the track? mp3DirectCut works great for trimming without having to re-encode.

MPTrim (formally MP3Trim) can do this:  http://www.mptrim.com/ (http://www.mptrim.com/)

MPTrim is free.  MPTrim Pro allows you to drag-n-drop files and, thus, do batch edits (automated).

Sounds Good Up To The 7 Min Limitation For The Free Version

The Tracks I Am Converting Are Are Around 30, 60 And 90 Mins Long

The Paid Version Is Like $70

I've used the Pro version for 8+ years now (exclusively).  It works great and is very fast (I figured if I have 100s of thousands of MP3s, I don't mind buying something that works and does exactly what I want and doesn't have to re-encode anything).  You should at least play with the free version and see what you think (on shorter/normal MP3s).
