is an excellent digital sound editor and MP3 encoder.
Cool Edit can be thought of as a "paint" program for audio. You can "paint" with sound: tones, pieces of songs, voices, noises, sine waves, sawtooth waves, noise, or just pure silence. You can use a variety of special effects to "touch up" your sounds: reverbration, amplification, noise reduction, compression, stretching, echo, reverbration, distortion, delay, flanging, and more. You can edit multiple files simultaneously, making it easy to cut, paste, merge and overlap sounds from different files. You can generate sounds, including noise, tones, silence, and DTMF (telephone) signals. Includes an audio CD player.
Other features include: support for optional plug-ins, crash recovery, multiple file support, support for sample rates up to 10 Megahertz and 32 bits, automatic silence detection and deletion, automatic beat finding, timed recording, and much more.
It handles and converts between AIF, AU, MP3, Raw PCM, SAM, VOC, VOX, and WAV formats. It can save in RealAudio format.
