Articles > Visual MP3 Splitter & Joiner 5.1 review

Visual MP3 Splitter & Joiner is a software utility, which is easy to use. It does not require any technical experience or special training to join or split sound files (mp3 or wav). Just select the desired part visually using the mouse. You can also perform basic editing, such as trimming files. The program is very useful for splitting a large sound file into smaller parts, so that they can be easier uploaded to a website or e-mailed. The interface has a slider bar to display position for cutting. Scrolling and zooming help you to determine the sound fragment to work with. MP3 Splitter & Joiner can also do the opposite - take several parts of a file or several different sound files and join them. The new sound file can be over 2 GB in size. The software supports fast MP3 and WAV editing without recompression. The program supports drag & drop from Win-dows Explorer, ID3v1 and ID3v2 tags, a built-in player for pre-listening of songs, etc. Thanks to the new mode in the version 5.1 you can now insert silence between MP3 tracks to be merged. The software is suitable even for beginners who are editing mp3 files for the first time.

Pluses: both functions (splitting and joining) are available in one software, which provides fast editing of sound files without quality loss, the drag & drop function, supports files over 2 Gb and has a slider bar for precise allocation of the position for cutting.

Drawbacks/flaws:

In conclusion: this is maybe the best software for splitting and joining of sound files.
