1Gb MP3 File into 2 ~500Mb Files. Awesome.

I don’t know what other people are using this for, but I have an audiobook building app that doesn’t accept 1 gig MP3 files (converting to M4b), so I needed an easy way to split the file into two or three files.

This app allowed me to determine the start and stop of the original file and output a new file with the start & stop times in the filename.

Exactly what I needed. No hang-ups. Hasn’t crashed. I have two files that my audiobook converter can now use (nevermind why it works with two files that equate to the originally large file). What’s there not to like?

Freezes, Unable to Work

I have tried using this many times now and not been able to get it to work. It freezes every time and times out. This needs significant improvement at this point.

Has Promise, but I'm deleting it

I usually use an audio editor to merge multiple files together. I've been doing that for 15 years and although it is tedious, it is reliable and precise and I can check the results as I go. I was delighted to find this app as it seemed like it could be a real timesaver.

So, I took a set of fourteen mono mp3s that had been ripped at 16K sampling rate from an audiobook and fed it to the app. I expected it to detect the current encoding and provide settings to match. But it simply used app defaults. When I ran it it upsampled the files, turning a set of 400M files into a single 570M file, a 40% increase in size. It would be much nicer if I knew that it could default to the same input settings instead of uselessly upsampling, which is just a waste of space and time.

Speaking of time, it took a bit over 20 mintues to join the files, which is much slower that I could do by hand using an audio editor. It seemed to lightly load my multiprocessor MBP, so I image there is potential for many speed improvements and for using multiple CPUs at once.

So, for joining files, this is OK for me as sometimes I don't mind it taking so long and being so inefficient since I don't have to work, but if I was in a hurry and was concerned for the size of the joined file, I'd do the work by hand. I hope the app imrpoves so I can come back and give it a better rating.

UPDATE: I tried joining a number of mp3s again using this tool, and the results were not useful. I noticed it doesn't set the tags on the resulting file. So it turns out I can do everything by hand quicker, and get a better result. The point of a program like this, it seems to me, should be to make life easier and do the tedious things for me.

I suggest passing on this one, I'm going to delete it and hide the entry in my purshases tab.
