Visual MP3 Splitter & Joiner 6.1

I can think of at least two situations when the functionality provided by the Maniac Tools-developed application Visual MP3 Splitter & Joiner will come in handy.

The first scenario I had in mind relates to the application’s splitting capabilities. Say you have a long recording but you don’t need it all, you just need bits and pieces. With the Visual MP3 Splitter & Joiner application you can cut out the bits you need. If you have a 5-minute long recording, you can take out the 30-second bit you need from the start and the 30-second bit from the end for example.

Those are not all the splitting capabilities this application has to offer. You can split a large file using the silence detection feature, or you can split the file in equal parts.

The second scenario I had in mind relates to the application’s joining capabilities. Say you want to put together a podcast for example. You have a bunch of separate audio files, but what would make life easier for you is if you would have just one big file. You can use the Visual MP3 Splitter & Joiner to join the small audio files into a bigger, single file. Getting back to the first example – you can take out the segments you need from a large file, then put them together in the order you see fit.

The nice thing about Visual MP3 Splitter & Joiner is that it is quite easy to use. You will be able to cut audio files and merge audio files together easily and rapidly. To my mind, there’s nothing better than an application that provides much needed functionality and is easy to use.

This application’s name – Visual MP3 Splitter & Joiner – may have you thinking that it only provides support for MP3 files. This is not the case. Alongside MP3 files, it also provides support for WMA, APE and WAV files.

Please note that Visual MP3 Splitter & Joiner is only free to try. You can use the application free of charge but only for a trial period of 30 days. The trial version doesn’t let you join more than 5 audio files and doesn’t let you split audio files into more than 5 parts.

Pros

• Easy to use
• Split, merge audio files (MP3, WMA, APE and WAV)
• Silence detection
• Drag and drop supported
• Hotkeys supported
• Multilingual interface

Cons

• Limited functionality in the trial version
