I do end-trimming with dd--works quite nicely on raw PCM files, although not so well on files that have headers, like wav. No matter-- you can easily convert back and forth with sox. Fade-ins and fade-outs are quite handily done with the pcmfade utility that comes with tosha. Pops and clicks... ahh, there's the rub. So far I've not been able to find any utility that does this. I'm not averse to a little programming; but I don't know of an audio equivalent of Knuth, and would be much obliged to anyone who can point me to some pseudocode or ideas on Windows Cooledit style click/pop removal. I wrote my own curses-based audio recording program, and I know how to crunch PCM data and calculate loudness in dB and stuff like that, but the identification and removal of the pops is beyond me. ~Ben To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-multimedia" in the body of the message
