I know that previous version of Mandrake did have an editor. Darned if I can find one now. I have some wave and mp3 files I want to burn to CDrom and some of them have a VERY annoying screech at the beginning I want to clip off. you'd think this easy to find... am I just having a brain fart?
I don't have much experience with this but you might want to take a look at hackaudacity in 9.1/contrib/. There was some bug in audacity that made hackaudacity a better choice, at the time I looked at it. Here is the qip:
Audacity is a program that lets you manipulate digital audio waveforms.
In addition to letting you record sounds directly from within the program, it imports many sound file formats, including WAV, AIFF, MP3 and Ogg/Vorbis. It supports all common editing operations such as Cut, Copy, and Paste, plus it will mix tracks and let you apply plug-in effects to any part of a sound. It also has a built-in amplitude envelope editor, a customizable spectrogram mode and a frequency analysis window for audio analysis applications.

hey Rolf,
The ONLY place I'm seeing that file is in mandrakes contrib? Is that true, or is there another site you know where it is? My guess is that I'm going to have the same problem with any. Audacity and another one (I forget the name right now) are having trouble with sound. The preferences pull down shows no devices at all and no way to add one that I can see. Since I run sound constantly I know I'm having now problems with it. I'm a little perplexed. about what could be wrong.
I am not sure if you installed audacity or hackaudacity. They are both in contrib/:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] MandrakeLinux-9.2rc2]$ urpmq --sources audacity file://back/contrib/audacity-1.0.0-3mdk.i586.rpm [EMAIL PROTECTED] MandrakeLinux-9.2rc2]$ urpmq --sources hackaudacity file://back/contrib/hackaudacity-1.1.0-4mdk.i586.rpm
If you are having trouble with audacity, you might urpme that and urpmi hackaudacity, or vice versa. I think I tried audacity first, which didn't work for me, then, since, like I said, I had read about a bug in audacity, I tried hackaudacity, which got rolling and let me play with some editing. I didn't use it extensively, however, and don't remember what version I was using. Try hackaudacity. The two packages have conflicting files, so uninstall audacity first. Sorry I don't know more than that about it.
