music software to cut parts of a song(s) that I dont like?

Question

I have several original cd's, but over the last few years DJs and others have been mixing songs from different singers. Example Indian songs mixed with rap. I know there are those who enjoy that but not necessarily me. The reason I want to cut some parts is the in the 'remix' the addition of new beats and tempo etc do have a good flare. I only want to remove the parts that I don't like and maybe add some parts of other songs that I like. Kinda like ' my ove remixing'. Is there a good software program that anyone knows of - free or otherwise, kindly let me know.

Answer 1

Do you want to cut out whole sections of the song (ie., the first 2 minutes)? Or do you want to cut, say, a horn part or a vocalist from the whole thing?

If it's the former you can use MP3splt (http://mp3splt.sourceforge.net/mp3splt_page/home.php) to slice and dice your MP3s based on time.

If it's the latter... you're just out of luck. When a remix is done the remixer is given access to the original multitrack recording. So they basically get the song in 16, 32, or 64 different parts. One "tape" is the vocalist, one is the drums, one is the guitar, etc. But you, as a consumer, don't have access to that (usually, there was a Moby song that was released with all the different parts as separate tracks on the CD so that listeners could do their own remix for a contest. And sometimes rappers such as Jay-Z release whole albums in an a capella (just the vocals) version for remixing).

Anyway, I think what you want to do is pretty much impossible. Sorry.

Download the free software Wavepad. Its beautiful easy to use whilst you simply wanna reduce up a song. Then yo can just save it and burn it do a disc. Search google for it and you will have to in finding it

I'm no music mixer, but sometimes I like to cut songs up (like a hidden track) and I use this free program called Audacity.
