Hey, wondering if anyone can help me out. I've got a few songs I've ripped from CDs with EAC in v0 quality VBR mp3 and they've got a long silence at the end of the song, like 5-10 minutes of silence/very little noise and then a "hidden" song plays. Is there any way I can remove the silence in between without effecting the quality too much/at all?

Only option I can think of is to rip them at 320 VBR and then save the reduced version as VBR, but I'm sure that'll have an effect on the quality.

Thanks smile.gif

Rip them to WAV. Do your editing. Convert to MP3.

Use Audacity and edit the silence out ?

Ahh, excellent. Forgot about WAV. Thanks smile.gif

Which program is best for the WAV > VBR MP3 conversion?

Edit: never mind, just dragged the WAV file into EAC and it converted it to the MP3 for me. Thanks again.
