Giveaway of the Day - MP3 Music Editor

June 3, 2009

MP3 Music Editor is an audio editor for Windows, with visual editing function and various practical features, allowing you to perform as many operations with audio data as you want.

When you open an audio file with MP3 Music Editor, it displays a waveform window, in which you could filter, apply various audio effects - with more than 20 sound effects and 6 filters provided, you could easily enhance the quality of the sound files.

This is a nice little program for those who want nothing more than to convert files and maybe clean them up a little. The UI, and menus are simple and uncomplicated, easy to use.

It does not hog system resources, or cause glitches under Windows XP sp3. I've converted a few wav files to MP3 and they sound pretty good.

This program will also record from the internet, those like radio shows and radio music.

This is supposed to rip CDs too, but I haven't tried that function yet.

This also has a clean up function if you have any old cassette tapes or LPs laying around that you want to archive.

All in all, it's pretty decent for a free program.

Linux and Mac users may want to try Audacity, I've had Audacity for a while. I guess I figured just about everyone knows about Audacity. It's a pretty decent program also. It's open source, and has a ton of features and several different plugins for different things.

HTTrack is a free (GPL, libre/free software) and easy-to-use offline browser utility.

It allows you to download a World Wide Web site from the Internet to a local directory, building recursively all directories, getting HTML, images, and other files from the server to your computer. HTTrack arranges the original site's relative link-structure. Simply open a page of the "mirrored" website in your browser, and you can browse the site from link to link, as if you were viewing it online. HTTrack can also update an existing mirrored site, and resume interrupted downloads. HTTrack is fully configurable, and has an integrated help system.

WinHTTrack is the Windows 9x/NT/2000/XP release of HTTrack, and WebHTTrack the Linux/Unix/BSD release. See the download page.

I use this program, and it works great on XP SP3! When I finally get my Linux machine I'll have to try the Linux version!

Grab-A- Site
Grab-a-Site users need to to reconstruct an entire web site on their local hard drive for mirroring or other purposes.
They may need to reconstruct the server directory structure, including original filenames.

This would be good for archive sites, groups, and forums owners:) Well considering all the fan fic forums, and archives that have been hacked in the last few years. I reckon it would be pretty handy to have a backup copy of the site:)
