Default Nero Wave Editor.

Hello All.

I am trying to use Nero Wave Editor to chop some parts out of some
audio files & make the new parts into new files. It appears to be
working okay but the new files are not what I expect.

I end up with three files instead of the one new one. What is going
on here? None of the new files will play so what am I doing wrong?

I had a similar experience with another product - there is a simple solution
through a change of method. I have Nero but MP3DirectCut is tiny and free
and much easier to use.

I edit out the beginning and end of 8-10 DAB recordings daily. I tried
defining the beginning edit and the end edit and saving the part in the
middle.
Problem: the whole file is saved with the edits in a separate file so that
when it's played the parts are edited out but remain in the file.
Inconvenient: doesn't reduce the file size and now there are 2 files.

Using MP3DirectCut mark the beginning and end of the item/piece you want to
keep eg. Selection #1 and save as a separate file. Repeat for as many
selections as you need. Close the original file.
Open the selection that is the *last* part of the new file and join to the
desired preceding selection (automatic process in MP3DirectCut). Repeat as
necessary.

Let me know how it works for you.
