Hi Aneta!

Do you have Little Reader HOME BASIC?

Have you also tried using the Easy Voice Recorder that comes with Little Reader?  Does this give you any problem too?

Please let me know, plus exactly what you would like to do (record, edit, change tempo, etc.) so I can figure it out and give you easier tips to follow.

Hope to hear from you soon!

Yes, I did it works just fine.But I needed to cut different mp3 files for LittleReader .I tried to do it with Audacity and it's great but it didin't want to export the files to LR so I got the Lame  and just could not get it how to make them work.Somewhere along the line I got a box to check my audio properties And thats when the sound was gone.

Oh dear - I am very sorry to hear about your experience with Audacity and Lame.  Unfortunately we cannot vouch for their software in so far as they were developed by other companies.

   Little Reader's Easy Voice Recorder was made primarily for voice recording, so you can easily record each file one by one and save them; this is the reason why it doesn't have the capability of cutting and slicing mp3s.

I'll try to look for an alternative program for you and do some reviews - so you can decide which one may be a good fit for you.

Aneta, what exactly are you trying to do with mp3 files that Easy Voice Recorder cannot do?

If it's a 'frequently-requested-feature', then perhaps we can consider adding to it in the future.

I wanted to put parts of songs in my slide shows thats why I needed cutting tool , songs are already mp3 files .Also I was hopping for better voice recording as I'm not impressed with my efforts but maybe it's just the mic I'm using and computer picksup all the noice .I don't know much about it.It would be great to have a tool  that cuts and saves only small parts of a file in LR recorder.
Thanks so much for the response.

If that's all you want to do, then EVR does do it. Just highlight the parts you don't want and press DEL!

And there is also a noise reduction tool - if you're not sure how to use it, please see the manual.

btw, for noise recording quality, I would say that it is unlikely that any other software will make it sound better. You should look into either getting a better mic or setting it up better. Eg., make sure the room is as quiet as possible - eg., shut all windows, turn off any air conditioning/heaters, etc. And of course, try the noise removal feature.

Ican't find delete function.

[KL]

It's the Delete key on your computer keyboard.

I'll try it right away!!
Thank you soso much.

Dear Lappy,

I am attempting to use Audacity 1.3.7 unicode and do not understand it at all.     I want to split a sound file into smaller files and am lost even with the instructions.

Frustrated.
