[slim] Editing FLAC files

2010-07-16 Thread norderney

I have some FLAC files sorted on my computer which have about 5 or 6
seconds of silence at the end of each file.  Is there any software
available that I can use to remove the last 5 or 6 seconds of silence
from the ends of these files?

Sure. What audio editor do you normally use? What OS? etc?


But the easiest approach may be to convert the flac files to .WAV/pcm 
and use any audio editor program. Then just re-compress to flac. This 
will lose tags, but for a small number of files it may be easier.

I use Windows Vista.

For tagging I use TagRename, but have not used any audio editing
software previously.

I have about 50 files, some of them are very short - such as 10 seconds
in length, featuring jingles and radio station promos. Just a bit
annoying having a 5 second gap at the end of the file!!

If you use Audacity it will extract all your tags from the source file
and rewrite them to the new one.

Just remember to save the file once edited, you choose FILE  EXPORT
and select a new directory so you don't overwrite your originals until
you're sure everything is ok.

sox has a silence option for removing silence (digital zero or below a
certain specified threshold value) from files.  It will not molest FLAC
tags.
