Can you edit mp3 and others audio?

I have downloaded some radio show bits and sometimes they go into a commercial and was wondering is there any way to edit it off?

I have Nero 5.5_

 

use the nero wave editor that nero came with...unless you buy the mp3 plugin, you will not be able to save the edited file as mp3.

 

Thanks I will try using wave editor.

 

You can also try Goldwave editor which is a free shareware download at goldwave.com. It'll enable you to edit, mix, add fades and filter out clicks and pops in your recordings. It's easy to use and has a lot of additional features to help finalize your project.

 

If you want to edit without reencoding (directly editing the MP3 - saves quality), you should use mp3directcut. Do a google search for it.

 

Thanks everybody for your help.

 

And don't forget Cool Edit, does the same as above and more.

 

Thanks,
I downloaded Goldwave and seems to working pretty good so far.

 

How about soundforge???

 

I will look into that as well.

 

i listen to art bell and there are commercials so it would be benificial to cut them out. thanks
