    Hey. I have a song (mp3)with a real annoying intro at the start, and i want to ... cut it out.

    I have ableton live but i have absolutely no idea how to use it and it looks complicated, are there any free programs that are easy to sue that i can delete parts of the song with?

    Please help,,
    billy

    "audacity" is a brilliant free little tool i use it for cutting down mp3's and cutting out those annoying bits. Its available from

    http://audacity.sourceforge.net

    download audacity then download the mp3 plugin so that it will let you export your files as mp3's, the link is below for the plugin:

    http://audacity.sourceforge.net/help/faq?s=install&item=lame-mp3

    so yer download the proggy thn install this mp3 plugin. It tells you how to install the plugin on the above page where you download the plugin from.

    Then you simply go here

    http://www.edhsonline.org/other/audacity/audacity_step02.html

    that is a tutorial of how to open up a .wav file but it is exactly the same as opening up a mp3 so just open your file up then click this link

    http://www.edhsonline.org/other/audacity/audacity_step06.html

    that shows you how to cut out the bit you dont want. This is the tutorial i used and i had no trouble doing it so im sure you will find it a piece of cake but if you get stuck then dont hesitate to ask me or any1 els for help =]

    let me knw how u go on =]
