Which type of tutorial are you looking for? I have the MP3 audio
tutorial files. I can email them to you if you wish and if they make
it through any attachment barriers. I also have two different sets of
text instructions. One came off the internet and the other I have
worked up. I will paste both of them after my name below.
HTH,
Jeff
MP3 Direct Cut is a free direct mp3 editor, splitter, cutter and recorder.
Download it from
http://www.mpesch3.de
Some brief notes regarding keyboard shortcuts for this program are as follows:
Play and Stop by using the SpaceBar.
During playback, the F8 key will increase playback speed and F7 will
decrease it.
Rewind and fast forward using cursor left and right or page-up and page-down.
The latter two keys move in larger increments than the first two.
The number of frames each pair moves can be set via the menu system.
Marking a selection for deletion, saving as a separte file, etc:
Use the letter b to mark the beginning of a selection
Use the letter n to mark the end of a selection
NotePlayback must be stopped when marking the beginning and end of a
selection by using the Spacebar.
The following commands use the numbers row above the letter keys,
not the numeric keypad on the right side of the keyboard.
These commands move by frame. One frame is about a 38th of a second:
1: Move the left margin of a selection one frame to the left
2: Move the left margin of a selection one frame to the right
3: Move the right margin of a selection one frame to the left
4: Move the right margin of a selection one frame to the right
With the following keys, one can exactly hear, where the margins of a
selection are:
F5: Plays the two seconds before the left margin of a selection
F6: Plays the first two seconds of a selection
F7: Plays the last two seconds of a selection
F8: Plays the two seconds after the right margin of a selection
F9: Plays the file around the selection as if the block had been cut out
To cut a selection one can press the delete key.
This does not touch the MP3 file.
It just modifies an MP3DirectCut index.
Therefore, cuts can be made quickly.
There are also menu options and shortcut keys to save a selection
into a different file.
For instance, Ctrl-E will save the selection with its own filename.
and Ctrl-W will save the entire audio using the current name or edit
it to something different.
To split an MP3 file, which consists of a complete album, one can use
the pause detection feature, which can be reached via the menu system.
It will set a marker before each song. These markers are actually
selections with a length of zero.
To check the markers, one can go from one to the other with Control
cursor right and Control cursor left.
The file can then be split according to the markers.
Or one can save a cue sheet file or an MP3 DirectCut project file.
Both would contain the markers.
With these marker files, one can easily find certain positions in an MP3 file.
To go to a specific time position, Control-p can be used. The edit
box is a bit strange.
Don't delete the words in it, just modify the numbers for the
current file position.
One has to leave alone the apostrophes, which separate hours minutes
and seconds.
The program needs these apostrophes
Then, there are the recording shortcuts.
r: Opens the record dialog, in which sighted people can adjust the
recording level
p: Starts the recording, when the recording dialog is open
s: Stops the recording.
My personal set of Notes.
Page Up to move back or page down to go forward in fairly large time
increments.
Use left and right arrows to move in smaller increments.
Space bar to begin and stop playback.
Ctrl F4 to close a window within MP3 Direct Cut.
Recording
Consider muting Window Eyes.
Press R to open recording screen.
Press P to begin and S to stop.
If Append is checked in the configuration window, stopping and
restarting recording will continue in the same file thus acting as a
pause function.
Marking beginning & end of selection.
Press B for beginning or N for end while playback is stopped.
1 and 2 will adjust begin point B backward or forward.
3 and 4 will adjust end point N backward or forward.
These commands move by frame and are quite precise.
To listen to where the B and N marks are, use f5 and f6 to hear
before and after point B; and use f7 and f8 to hear before and after point N.
Use F9 to hear what the audio would be like if you were to delete the
currently selected segment of audio.
To append a file you must be using the older version 1.39:
Open the file to be appended to the end of another file,
Open File Menu and select Append To.
Press Shift Tab to locate file to append it to.
When desired file is found, just press Enter and it is done.
Then close this window with Ctrl F4.
press Control+A to select all, and then I believe the keystroke is
Control+D. This should open up a dialog box like a Windows explorer
window to allow selection of the file to append your open file to.
To delete an audio selection just press Delete.
To save the newly shortened file, use Save All in File Menu.
Or, use Ctrl + W to save using the same file name.
To save an audio selection open File Menu and select save selection, Ctrl E.
To jump to a specific time in an open file:
Use Ctrl P to open edit field.
The edit field shows total time and current NOW time.
Merely move with right arrow key to type desired time in the NOW
location; press Enter.
Now press space bar to begin playback.
